 NB>> Unless you get piles of rain in March... 
 MK> It's raining as we speak ... and still below seasonal temps to add
 MK> insult to injury ... sort of speak.  At least it isn't snow.  :::knock
 MK> on wood::: 

Or ice, I'd guess.... 

 MK>> for snow for Vancouver and the Fraser valley for tomorrow.  
 NB>> And did it materialize...?
 MK> Yes, and we got some too along with lightning and thunder.  It almost
 MK> became biblical. 

Quite the sight, then...?

 NB>> Spring should be coming along soon.....
 MK> The weather people are promising the weekend but I will believe it
 MK> when I see it.  I have lost the faith, although I probably didn't have
 MK> much to start with. 

So were things better on the weekend...?  

Thursday, we had a record high of 70 degrees F, which quickly dropped
the next couple of days, and we've been having temps around freezing,
and small amounts of snow... Today's sunny, with blue sky, white fluffy
clouds... and snow floating in the air falling somehow from the sky...

 NB>> Will you be replacing it with better, once the weather settles
 NB>> down
 MK> That was the original plan but I got brave and repaired the old one
 MK> and put it back up.  It is showing WAY better signal strength but at
 MK> the expense of some added noise.  I now plan to wait until the weather
 MK> improves before tweaking it some more.  So far nobody is complaining. 

That worked out well then... 

 NB>> The bees probably know better than to emerge yet....
 MK> Hopefully they will be out and about soon.

And the weather safe enough for them.... 
 
 NB>> Are you putting out the sugar water for the hummingbirds...?
 MK> There is definetly more than enough in the neighbourhood as well as
 MK> bird feeders for the rest of the crowd.  There is one just behind my
 MK> place that I can view through the window in my so-called office where
 MK> I am typing this reply.  It is dark now but earlier there were flocks
 MK> of birds all taking their turns at poking at the feeder with much
 MK> gusto.  It is always a fun to watch. 

Good that they are being cared for...    And yes, I've always enjoyed
the show at my mom's bird feeder outside her kitchen window...
