Springing Forward

No, you haven’t slept through March. Yes, it feels more like April out there today.

It’s one of those mornings where you walk out the front door and immediately issue a long, profound “ahhhhhhhhh.” It’s the first time in months I’ve left the house without gritting my teeth against the cold.

It was 57 degrees out when I stepped out the door this morning. Unreal.

We’re headed to a high of 67.

Maybe Punxsatawney was wrong.

Then again maybe not.

Enjoy the next couple of days. The forecast calls for the weekend highs to be in the 30s.

No doubt the next “storm alert” for the northern and western suburbs is right around the corner.

Oh, and something else happens this weekend. Don’t forget that they changed the law and we now “spring forward” early Sunday morning.

The payoff for losing an hour’s sleep Saturday night is an extra hour of daylight at the end of the day.

Spring can’t be far behind.
