March

third month of our year, first month of the ancient Roman calendar, c. 1200, from Anglo-French marche, Old French marz, from Latin Martius (mensis) "(month) of Mars," from Mars (genitive Martis). The Latin word also is the source of Spanish marzo, Portuguese março, Italian marzo, German März, Dutch Maart, Danish Marts, etc.


Replaced Old English hreðmonaþ, the first part of which is of uncertain meaning, perhaps from hræd "quick, nimble, ready, active, alert, prompt." Another name for it was Lide, Lyde (c.1300), from Old English hlyda, which is perhaps literally "noisy" and related to hlud "loud" (see loud). This fell from general use 14c. but survived into 19c. in dialect.

That’s interesting! Thanks for sharing.

Ok so today was very chilly, started off at -9C and didn’t get above 0C. Brrr!

Tomorrow we are back to mild weather yay!

And on the weekend a low pressure system for the central USA will make its way up here, drawing warm moisture from the Gulf of Mexico and dropping all that moisture as rain - and they predict lots of it and high winds.

Flood warns have been out now for a couple days. I need to get my eves trough on the roof fixed tomorrow. Otherwise the rain will pour down the side of the house from the roof.

Can’t wait until I hear my beloved frogs and toads come out of hibernation

+10 during the day, +2 C at night. However, I shut off the street water supply system, which I use to pour water for the geese, inside the barn at night and drain it so that there is no water left in it. Once I was too lazy to do this, but suddenly it became -15 C at night, as a result I had to replace some of the pipes and connections.

The water somehow managed to freeze during the night and tore the polypropylene.
Anyway, since it's already warm during the day, I can pour a big bath for the geese from the pipe instead of carrying water in buckets.
Frankly, my street water supply system is made of various free junk - most often these are leftovers and cuttings after various plumbing works, and the pipes are absolutely different - there are gray Turkish ones, there are white Russian ones, there are even rusty, but still quite viable taps, made half a century ago in the Soviet Union. There are also Italian, Chinese and even Spanish taps. Periodically, some of them break down and I replace them with others. All this is stretched in long pipes to the dwellings of geese and ducks, and in the summer I do not carry water in buckets, but pour it from the taps. It would be possible to insulate these pipes and run a heating cable through them, but I did not do this, because the distance is quite large, it would require a lot of cable and electricity. Therefore, in the winter I just carry water in buckets, pouring it into a bunch of different basins and old pots.
