Since friend groundhog emerged from his den last Feb. 2, on Candelmas, and saw his shadow, superstition forecast six more weeks of winter. This was really beside the point, inasmuch as spring arrives six weeks later anyway at 10:52 p.m. EST on March 20, the Vernal Equinox, when the sun crosses the equator into the northern hemisphere, rising due east and setting due west. Day and night are then approximately the same length.
Full moon, often called the sap moon as sugaring time arrives in the Northeast, occurs at 8:13 a.m. EST on the 15th.
Weather watch: Expect below average temperatures and precipitation during the period. Look for the month to come in somewhat like a lamb but with storms 7-10, 15-17, and 20-21 and the month going out like a lion with stormy weather 2931. Typical March winds will be intermittent throughout the period.
