Reading outside weather

Read outside

This year spring was about 16-18 days later than normal. It was an especially long winter with a heavy snowpack and it was a very slow warm-up this year.

Normally the reaction would be that a late spring works against the economy. Crops are planted later and the overall growing season will be shorter.

But the benefit of a late spring is that postponed projects and maintenance issues can be addressed and then when spring finally does arrive, we can sit in the sun and read a book.
