57F(13C) yesterday morning here. By afternoon it was 32F(0C) snowing with the wind blowing quite strongly. 10F(-12C) this morning with about 2in(5cm) of snow. That brings us to right about the average temperature for this time of year. Cheers I remember many years ago starting to read a novel that began, "It was unusually cold for late November in the Twin Cities, and the rain..." I thought, "If it's unusually cold in late Nov in the Twin Cities, it is NOT raining," and gave up on that novel! That reminds me of a story I read years ago in a Readers Digest condensed book. That one had somebody in the Minneapolis area boating on open water on a lake in March. They must have had a premonition of global warming.  Cheers

Just watching, up close, how honey bees, yes honey bees, are visiting the flowers, yes flowers, on the balcony and terrace. Something wrong with that picture on Jan 14?
(was reading that USA 48 contiguous states were 3.5F warmer in 2012 than the previous century average and 1F warmer than the dustbowl years, around 1930. NW Europe had the warmest X-mas weeks Dec 21/Jan-10 since 1900. Australia weather service added a new color to their temperature map, deep purple, to reflect a new record of 54C (129.2F). Elderly friends mailed they'd temp moved to the Sydney area where it's "cooler", to escape the heat. Just saying. |

hmmm, so it's Feb.24, still meteorological winter, and there we discover an in-full-blossom tree on the north
----------------------------------------Todays predicted sun was late and veiled  and tomorrow's will be mostly hidden by clouds, just 8C,  edit: Had west with east confused... North East is where our cold winds come from, Central Siberia / Balkans. [Edit 1 times, last edit by Former Member at Feb 24, 2013 5:29:48 PM] |

I suspect we will get "more more more" in the end, but not necessarily what we want.

To lift a line from "The Wizard of Oz", "I'm melting". It was 106F (41C) here yesterday, 109F (42.7C) today and a possible 113F (45C) tomorrow. No crunching here for the foreseeable future.

Not sure where you're located, Dataman, but here in Colorado Springs, our hot weather has shifted to the west, and it's been rather cool, humid and rainy. So the people west of us are now getting our heat wave. It's supposed to warm up for the 4th of July, but hopefully we'll eventually start getting monsoonal flow from Mexico, with its associated daily afternoon thunderstorms.

Had not seen this before for our location at Accu-weather, but instead of the cloudless sun image [the sun is brutal this past week, some plants literally have holes burned in leaves and those are the succulent types], we are being presented with a red hot thermometer
 Sunshine and very hot Powering down... before coffee and spread-eagle through the weekend under the pines.  (The elderly are taking refuge in the shopping centers and cooling tents are set up in places) |

The kindly Canadians have smiled on us here in Central Minnesota and sent some cooling breezes. We had a high today of 68F(20C) and are looking at a low tonight of about 46F(8C). A refreshing day even if it was mostly cloudy.
----------------------------------------My sympathy to SekeRob and his oppressive heat. Cheers
