THE WEATHER REPORT:
“The Weather Report” is the conversation we all have at home and at work about the weather. It’s not about the specifics but how the daily conditions affect our plans.
If the old adage is true, April showers bring May flowers, then we should have a lot of flowers in May because there’s been a lot of rain in April. Not just rain, but snow too.
Everyone is looking to get outside after a long winter and long pandemic. You hear it at the office, home and around town. The time is coming. Even now, when it’s not raining, the temps are steady enough to feel Spring.
The talk now is about the small things that make a big difference. Opening your windows to get some fresh air circulating in the house is a big step forward. Make sure you adjust your thermostat so the heat doesn’t keep kicking in gear.
Some of us are debating and calculating how much heating oil, kerosine and propane we have left in the tank. Do you have enough to get through until May and even June? You can’t just buy a little to make it through. There’s a minimum or you get charged a service fee - with many providers. The best thing is to go for it and have the fuel for the start of the next cold season in the Fall.
Clean the fans and start planning to get the air conditioner out of storage and in the window. It’s a little down the road, but when the heat and nice weather come, you’ll be ready.
