More Basketball and Snowballs

During the Sweet Sixteen of the men's NCAA basketball tournament in Indianapolis, the state of Kentucky put on a show for the national scene, none more so than those who were actually present at the game.

While Louisville held on for most of the game, the vaulted freshmen of UK finally overcame UL's lead in the waning moments of their matchup.

If you've ever read my blog posts, at times you will notice how I find little anecdotes that seem to always have some relationship to weather.

Well, what does the game have to with weather you may ask?

Louisville and Lexington recorded their seasonal heaviest snowfalls in years. Although snowfall may still accumulate, the odds are quite slim of snowfall amounts greater than a couple of inches at one time in April.

Early in the winter season, Louisville received much more snowfall than Lexington. However, as the season progressed, Lexington began receiving more snow than Louisville and gradually closed the gap. Finally, here at the end of the season, Lexington has eclipsed Louisville in the snowfall department.

Lexington  26.8"
Louisville 25.9"

Game over. Again....
