Happy Wednesday everyone! It finally felt nice warm enough outside for shorts! Looking ahead, this Sunday is Saint Patrick’s Day! A fun fact about St. Patrick’s Day is that originally, the color associated with Saint Patrick was not green, but blue. It’s believed that the shift to green happened because of Saint Patrick’s use of the shamrock, with its three leaves, to explain the Holy Trinity to the Irish people. Over time, the green of the shamrock became more closely associated with the day and its celebrations. So, as you prepare your shamrocks and green attire this Sunday, let’s take a look at the forecast ahead and hope we are lucky. After all, there’s no pot of gold this week, but with the sun shining down on us, who needs gold when we are walking in the sunshine?
