Here we are, staring down the barrel of May, and we have snow forecasted for tonight and tomorrow morning. Snow on April 30th. It’s not common. We’re colder than usual too. Where we normally see 50-60 degree temperatures at this time of April/May, it’s still firmly freezing at night, and we occasionally see 45 degrees in the sun during the day.
Because the snow hasn’t fully melted and because of the late snows, the state has allowed for extra time to remove your studded tires from your vehicle. Studded tires need to be removed by May 15th unless we get more snow.
The 3 Barons Renaissance Fair is still slated to be the first two weekends of June. We still have a chance of the ground being soggy and have snow in some of the shadier places. I finally joined a guild this year. For more information about the faire and calendar, please visit http://www.3barons.org/ and make sure to check back every now and then.
That’s my update for today. Bitching about the weather.
