Sheila's Brush? Happy St. Patrick's Day!
In weather legend, Newfoundland recognizes a winter storm that falls near St. Patrick's Day as Sheila's Brush. Now mystery has it, it's his wife or sister or mother or mistress or housekeeper.
Sheila's Brush is the annual fierce winter storm with heavy snowfall that occurs around the 18th of March.The resulting snow is attributed to Sheila's sweeping away of the last of winter. But, once the brush blows through it signals that Spring is just around the corner for Newfoundland.
We just had a snowstorm on Monday that gave us a foot of snow with another forecast for this weekend. If legend holds true after this weekend we should be on our way to spring. I can only hope.
So Happy St Patrick's Day to everyone.

May your troubles be less,
And your blessing be more.
And nothing but happiness,
Come through your door.

I saw a tiny bit of snow left at the end of my driveway earlier today.I think it will be all gone tomorrow and I really thought that mountain would take till April. I also had to turn around this week when I went to a town about 20 minutes from here and ducks were swimming in the river that still covered the road. So it has been quite a winter! Spring is sorely needed but it supposed to approach 70 F Friday. Happy spring and St Patrick's day.
