Where's the snow?
Is it possible that Northern Illinois has seen more snow in the month of March than some in Minnesota? According to the Minnesota Climatology Working Group, it is. As of late last week, the Twin Cities International Airport has seen no snow for the month of March. We have officially recorded 1.3" back on March 20th. If no measurable snow falls for the rest of the month, and I don't think it will, March 2010 will go down in the record books as the least snowiest March in the Twin Cities since records began in 1891! One has to look back to 1860 and 1878 to find a March without snow. While the Twin Cities hasn't recorded any snow this month, other places have, but it hasn't been much! Who knew...

That's pretty cool! Here in Lincoln, NE we had 1.6" of snow in March, so we beat the Twin Cities too. I'm so glad to be finished with the cold weather. It's nearly 70 degrees by me, and tomorrow we should hit 80! Don't worry northern Illinois.....I've sent the warm weather your way. :)
