For most of the month of March, all signs had been pointing to spring: warmer temperatures,Major League Baseball's Opening Day and high school athletic teams beginning spring practices.
But Mother Nature appears to be keeping us honest as the National Weather Service says snow is likely in the forecast Friday, the first day of April, and that is not an April Fool's joke.
