It seems everyone is complaining about the weather. A sore topic among Windsorites , spring just has not co-ooperated, but is it having an impact on some local businesses bottom lines? You bet. The excessive rain and unseasonable cool temps have done nothing to inspire people to get out and spend those springtime dollars. Garden Centres, Pool companies, boating establishments, motorcycle shops and ice cream stores are all awaiting that first pop of warm weather to get people moving on summertime activities (and purchases). Outdoor restaurant and bar patios come alive with people as well when the nights are warm and the days sunny. And lets not forget those who work outside like farmers and construction workers. Weather can easily put crops and projects behind and cost money. But that’s life right? Unfortunately we cannot change the weather and everyone ultimately must deal with it on some level. Heres hoping to a fabulous May 24 Long weekend and a temperate kickoff to the 2011 summer season. Now get out there and play!
