SPRING Forward? Really?

It's very hard to comprehend that this Saturday night we will "spring forward" by setting our clocks ahead one hour when we still have a couple of inches of snow on the ground. In the past two days, I've read half a dozen different Facebook posts by friends reminding everyone to spring forward Saturday night.  At this point in the game, it's hard to imagine anything spring-ish when today I heard the National Weather Service experts (using that term loosely) say that March will be "unseasonably cold" for our area.  Just what we wanted to hear.
