Three questions for spring

[muckefuck]

1. Don't the redbuds seem awfully late this year? Most of them are just starting to come into bloom; I don't remember seeing any budding before last Friday. By this point, if something's not sprouting or blossoming, I assume it didn't make it through last winter. Not only are the lilies-of-the-valley and peonies up, but the periwinkle is already flowering!
2. Which is stupider: Sunshine delays or gaper blocks?
3. What are you doing for Mayday?

Sunshine Delay: Slower traffic caused by bright sunlight. As rush hour morning traffic typically means travelling east towards the rising sun and evening traffic means travelling west towards the setting sun, delays can occur because of blinded drivers. (Thanks Richard R.!) [Source: Chicago vocabulary]

So, basically, traffic is delayed because the FREAKIN' SUN IS SHINING! Where are we that drivers are thrown for a loop by sunlight--SEATTLE?
