Spring or what??

[Vaughn MacKenzie]

It's been quite an interesting winter, can't decide if spring is here or not. Other than an occasional warm day here or there the temperature really hasn't changed that much since February. It was over 60 for the February Bomb Party, now two months later it's snowing.



Folks in Western Washington have been spending this weekend shoveling sidewalks, building snowmen, sledding, etc. Many places recorded the latest snowfall in history with not a trace of snow, but several inches. I know places such as the Great Lakes, New England etc. get snow in April but it's extremely rare for snow to stick past mid-late March in western WA, let alone April.

Of course, all this frigid weather is caused by global warming. Right?

We had a very mild winter down here and we're actually getting down in the 50's at night right now.

Definitely hasn't been a mild winter up north, highest snowfall amounts in many years for a lot of places and just not warming up very well this spring. Last weekend we rocketed into the mid 80s but before that and since it's been pretty much nothing but 50s for the last 2-1/2 months.

Record snowfalls and coldest winter in ages. No signs of global warming here... .....

We had a fairly mild winter, only got down to -38F. And only for a day or 2, then back up to a balmy -10 or so.

Very little snow though, and no rain this spring so far. It's been pretty much dusty all winter and spring, no mud, etc.

You guys with all the rain and snow over in WA, can you send a bit this way please?
