Back To Work Blues.

I bet that those who managed to get a day or two extra off due to the weather over the weekend are suffering from the back to work blues today. Not only is the snow mwlting but its also pouring with rain. Whats the betting the next outbreak of colds and flu will be along shortly.

In recent years, by this time in february or shortly thereafter, we have become accustomed to nature watchers telling us that it is going to be the earliest spring on record. I suspect that this is not going to be the case this year. It should remind us that climate change, whatever its cause, is not a uniform event and can mean more than just the weather being warmer. It can also mean that weather events of all kinds become more severe.
