The word of the day is COLD. 22F here this morning near the coast and colder tomorrow. Talked to some friends in Steamboat Springs CO where it was -28F with a wind chill of -34F.

It has snowed, it is snowing, it will snow.
----------------------------------------Course this only happens once every three to four years, but the kids are loving it. On the plus side, it has to warm up to snow. Still cold but bearable.  Distributed computing volunteer since September 27, 2000 |

So 2014 turned out to be the warmest global 'weather' year on record, and our winter, well the hills are soaked so bad that everything has started sliding, a never ending stream of 'frana' reports, left right and center. Even our own country road has been closed off, one direction "strada interrotta" and the other way, an emergency concrete wall raised to hold off more sliding. Not even a bike and a car can pass each other. In Chili last week, they had rains in one day which was the equivalent of 14 years of precipitation [Hey JP, where are you hanging?]. The jet stream on the northern hemisphere is all wacko, whilst the water off the US east coast at points were 21F warmer than normal this winter... the gulf stream slowing and moving and when all the extra water vapor [7% more per 1C warming, compound] meets the cold air from the Arctic you kind of get piles of snow over the North Americas. Piles we had here too on the 15th of March, a brisk multi-hour e-bike ride distance, 120cm in one Sunday night at Villa Celiera. The melting hit, almost all gone in a week and more land slides . Yes, we're happy in our region. But that is small time... the weather is all over protesting change, at the Antarctic record melts were reported and few days ago... 17.5C on the West Ant.Pensinsula. If that goes on, it's 1-3 meters on it's own adding to the o-sea-n levels. There's lots of people living in that 1-3 meters region above 1-3M SLR. Not like you can move all that real-estate for a price less than doing something about our bad addictions [6% of GDP it takes to act now per economists or pay a lot more when it becomes irreversable... the you know what]
----------------------------------------The weather is 'looking' good today... blistering sun, but the Siberian northerly made for less pleasantness. Have a good day. [Edit 1 times, last edit by Former Member at Mar 28, 2015 6:25:21 PM] |

Here in central Minnesota it has been dry with March being cooler than normal for most of the month. Today we are finally getting some rain (better than snow at this point). It looks to be a week or 10 days to ice out, but that depends on the weather. The prediction is for a warm day on Wednesday this week, but still some nights below freezing for a while. 39 F(4C) and rain/snow mix.
----------------------------------------Cheers

More special weather in the making with an official El Ninô state declaration. Was 2014 the warmest, 1998 the only 20th century year remaining in the top ten warmest years, another top 10er on its way. There's a well documented 'teleconnection' of the Pacific EN and weather anomalies in the Med, and we've already had enough of that in our corner... Suddenly we got 22C regardless of the northerly winds... For the moments we take it to dry the lands a bit and stop the landslides.

More special weather in the making with an official El Ninô state declaration. Was 2014 the warmest, http://www.scientificamerican.com/article/el-nino-officially-declared-for-2015/ I don't think so. In early January, just a little over a month ago, the federal government’s National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) made front-page news by announcing 2014 was the warmest year on record. Mere days later, somewhat farther back in the pages of the newspapers, both agencies were forced to admit they couldn’t actually say 2014 was the warmest year on record. NASA’s “record” global average temperature was just two hundredths of a degree above the previous record, with the margin of error being several times greater than the amount of warming. NASA backtracked, saying there was only a 38 percent chance 2014 was the warmest year on record. And that record goes back only about 150 years, a microscopic sliver of the planet’s history. http://cnsnews.com/commentary/h-sterling-burn...larmists-grasping-icicles
