Winter wonders

FRISCO — It’s probably just as well that February is a short month, seeing as how by this time, a lot of people are ready to move on to spring. For weather forecasters, in fact, March 1 marks the start of meteorological spring, so don’t be surprised if you hear more references to the change of seasons even though the equinox (the “official” start of spring) is still a few weeks away. In the high country, it doesn’t really make all that much of a difference. March is often the snowiest month, so even if the days are nice and long, it still feels like winter. And this year, with the early season drought, we’ll take all we can get.
