As the month of March rolls in, the old folklore saying "in like a lion, out like a lamb" certainly applies. This winter was one for the record books, as many regions in North America experienced long, sustained accumulations of snow coupled with continuous days and nights of sub-freezing temperatures, often whipped by icy arctic winds. I even learned a new term, "polar vortex," which the weathermen were using to describe the absolutely frigid weather.
