Battening Down the Hatches

March has certainly come in like a lamb, as the old adage says - the last couple of days, we've been enjoying sunshine and relatively balmy temperatures approaching the freezing mark. It's a nice relief from the deep freeze we've been dealing with since early January.

Apparently it won't last, though. There's a winter storm warning issued for Halifax tomorrow evening - we're meant to get ice pellets, freezing rain and upwards of 20 cm of snow. If that happens, it will be the first significant snowfall here since our only other storm of the season - back in early December.

A. will be delighted, at least - it'll give him an excuse to fire up his new snowblower, for only the second time this winter.
