Sorry about that man. I guess it's Global Warming at work.

I live in Minneapolis, and we just got through a big snow storm. Then I travel out to Washington D.C. and now they have the cold/rain combo. I'm beginning to think we'll just skip spring and one day it will be 85 degrees out and we will go from jackets to sweating within 24 hours.

Oh well, at least there are no mosquitos yet.

We had that last week. It went from the 70s to having two inches of snow on the ground. This week we're back in the 60s thought, and it's supposed to stay there.

We seemed to have escaped the really bad stuff up here, but I hear you don't have to go too far south and East of Rochester to really be accumulating lots of snow. BInghamton must be a mess!

Actually, it could have been such worse: if this came down as ice instead of snow, we'd be in huge trouble.

The crazy thing is that the Boston Marathon is still going on despite temps in the mid 30s to 40s, 50 mph winds (into the faces of the runners), and a wind chill factor of up to over 30°...

Every year my fellow Torontonians complain about snow in April - somewhat surprising considering that Toronto has had snow for 68 out of the last 70 Aprils.

You guys should not complain too much. At least you have moisture and it cleans the streets. The people I feel sorry for are the homeless because they have no place to stay when it is cold and snowy and could die from such a weather.

I'm not especially pleased that I had to turn the heat on last night and the AC tonight. At least to cool it down some. My dogs will be home alone tomorrow and it's already 74˚ F in here at night.

An yes, I turned the heat off this morning.

Weird it's been 27°C this weekend over here (even up to 30° in some places). Which is abnormal. It's the highest temperature ever recorded in this time of the year. This week we're back to the more normal temperatures of 10-15°C.
