Today is the second day of Spring, in the year 2022.
But the temperature here in the Central Highlands of Arizona is running in the 50's and it's accompanied today by a sharp breeze which puts a bit of an edge on The New Season.
Not only that, look what appeared since yesterday on the Bradshaws, just south of town.
Yes, Gentle Readers, those white spots are fresh snow!
But never fear.
The flowering fruit trees here in the more civilized city are taking their cues from the calendar, not the Weather Gods.
So Spring actually has made it's entrance and it's going to make itself even more apparent as this week moves on.
By next weekend, the mercury is predicted to have warmed into the 70's here and, Arizona Haters, into the 90's already down in the Big Valley of Phoenix.
And it's still March.
