Morning Brief: March 20

Yes, snow's coming today, but Spring is just around the corner

Yes, that's right, snow is in the forecast for today. But the ten day forecast looks much better, so start thinking about all those Spring activities you can do. And despite this everlasting winter, we didn't get Boston-level mountains of ice. So we can be grateful for that as we move into warmer weather after today.
