Goofy weather ...

Post by Jerry Freeman »

It snowed last night. I woke up to see about an inch of snow on the ground. Tomorrow is predicted to be in the 70's Fahrenheit.

Best wishes,
Jerry

Did you move to Nebraska?

Few weeks ago some parts got eight inches of snow then the next day it was in the upper 60's then the 80's the next day.

I'm still in upstate New York.

Apparently what's happened is, Nebraska has moved here.

Best wishes,

On May 6, 1989, the day before my daughter was born, we had a surprising snow here in the Chicago area. There were signs in the hospital for those who'd given birth that day and were rather, shall we say, distracted from the details of the weather: Be sure to tell your children it snowed on their birthday!

Tell us something.: I play whistles. I sell whistles. This seems just a BIT excessive to the cause. A sentence or two is WAY less than 100 characters.

Unseasonably warm here for last three days. In the low 90s in SF. So hot that it sucked the usual July wind and fog in here as of last night. Back to normal but still swelterin' in the Valley.

Worst one-day snowfall I can ever remember around here fell on April 14 (sometime back in the '80s, can't recall which year), about 16". We've had many times when the drifts were much deeper but that was some of the wettest, heaviest snow I ever saw.

Today it's nice, upper seventies, albeit the wind is really howling.

Yesterday it hailed, rained, snowed, more rain, high gusting winds, drop to below freezing last night and this morning, now the sun is out temperature is rising and it is quite pleasant.

Gander Newfoundland got 45 cm of snow on Monday night and are expecting more!

Go figure it's Spring!

Ahhhh-- springtime in upstate NY!
I went kayaking on Sunday with some friends and it started to rain just as we were taking the boats out of the water. Got a little hail mixed in with it for good measure.
Got wood?

Here in upstate NY, we call 16" of snow "flurries..."

At 10:30 this morning it was 65 degrees here in Salt Lake City...by 3:00 p.m. the temperature had dropped to 35 and it was raining. Now it's snowing. We're supposed to hit 80 degrees in a few days. Must be springtime in Utah.

Oh, yeah: also a mod here, not a spammer. A matter of opinion, perhaps.

Around 86F today; it was in the low 60s yesterday, and is expected to drop to the 50s tomorrow and for the rest of the week. Same thing happened last week, in about the same sequence!.

Which is one very good reason why I'd never winter in New England or anywhere east of a Great Lake. Now, Summer there and Winter in New Mexico would be nice, assuming I ever conquered my state of perpetually barely adequate income.

Illinois weather is marginally lousy most of the time but never truly abominable.

Just an update on Nano's comments since I live in the same area. The high today was 40 degrees lower then the high yesterday, some places in Northern Minnesota have differences of over 50 degrees. Amazing really.
