Wow, This Gets Tedious -- But Someone Has To Do It -- April 7, 2019

Let's see. Is Easter just around the corner?

I'm trying to recall how often we experienced snow/blizzards in Williston at Easter when I was growing up.

Never.

Just joking. I'm sure it happened frequently. I just don't recall any that stood out.

But now, with just twelve years before the end of the earth due to anthropogenic global warming, expect blizzards in the heartland, from iceage now:

Accuweather meteorologists warn of possible heavy snow and damaging winds, even blizzard conditions, from southeastern Montana to Colorado from Tuesday into Wednesday.

They warn that snowfall could “reach or exceed a foot across either the northern or central Plains, depending on the track of the storm.” Snow may also streak along a narrow swath into the Great Lakes, according to AccuWeather Meteorologist Randy Adkins. The storm “is likely to cause severe travel problems in the heartland.”

No mountains in southeastern Montana as far as I know so I suppose we're not talking about high elevation snowstorms.

Wow, it's taking forever for this year's winter to end. Didn't "P. Phil" tell us winter was over months ago? Back in February?

And that was as good a reason as any to stop Amazon from building HQ2 in Long Island City, along with 25,000 jobs, and billions in revenue.

Easter:

• go back to the spring equinox
• wait for the first full moon following the spring equinox
• then, Easter, will be the first Sunday after that first full moon after the spring equinox. Easy-peasy
• is that correct; doing that from memory just for the fun of it
