Easter Sunday began with cloudy skies, but the sun came out later in the day.  Today should be quite nice with plenty of sun.  Unfortunately, there is another snowstorm looming in our future.  At this time, it appears that most will remain to our north, but the computer models seem to indicate that this is a changing scenario and could swing further south than what appears at this time.  Winter just won’t give up this year!  This will be one that we’ll be watching closely.
