Snow!!!

Mark, Jr., and I have a baseball game at 05:00pmEDT this afternoon and there is one inch of snow () on the ground and the temperature is 24F () with a game time temperature of 37F ().

What kind of joke are the Gods of Baseball playing on us?

Me too here in Detroit area. The 3 inches broke our all time snow record for winter.

One of the many reasons it was easy to give up baseball for a period of time. I cannot stand the weather volitility at this time of year. I wish my state would go to a summer season or later in the Spring that runs into the summer like they did in Iowa. Then I would be interested again.

Peace

As you know, Mark, I'm about two hours south of you. Sunday we were at 80 degrees! Today, same snow and cold that you're having.

In other words...just another typical Ohio spring!

I worked a Juco DH on Sunday, and the temps were in the 80s. Today it's raining as a cold front comes through, and the temps tonight will eventually bottom out in the 20s with freeze warnings throughout. The kids are on Spring Break; go figure...
