Almost anyone in B.C. could look out the window today and rest assured Spring in on its way.
While Western Canada was basking in the March sunshine today, Eastern Canada was preparing for another absolute beast of a blizzard.
It's the third "Nor'easter" to hit the Maritimes in the last two weeks and it will likely be the strongest of all three winter storms.

A Nor'easter comes complete with high winds, coastal flooding and true white out blizzard conditions.

While no one can change the weather, be courteous and try to avoid tagging your friends back in east in those Spring hiking posts.
