SIXTY ONE degrees Fahrenheit today in Plymouth, Massachusetts!!! WTH?? Normally, it's around 35F this time of year.

Are you seeing any wild winter warming spells where you live?

It's like Spring time out there...but I'm still not joining the global warming cult.

@FloorGenAdm No, I am not, either...but good gosh...these are temperature extremes.

Predictions were for bitter cold this year. Glad they were wrong. Been a mild winter in TN other then that super cold blast we had over Christmas.
I debated if i should buy a snow blower this year. It only snows deep every 5-10 years. I did not want to have to shovel deep snow again this year. Glad I held off. Looks like no snow for us this year. But ya just never know.

@Confined Don't buy an electric one...dragging that cord around behind you is a pain.

@4meAndyou I have been thinking about the battery powered ones. Not sure the charge is long enough. Maybe next year.
4meAndyou · F
@Confined Just buy two batteries, and keep them charged if snow is on the way.

Oklahoma gets cold and then warms up again. Usually before an ice storm we’ve had warm weather in the 60’s or even 70’s then when that ice storm blast through it creates an ice that sticks to the trees, power lines, etc and damages.

@4meAndyou It’s because of our location. The cold fronts can be from going over the mountains of Colorado chilling the air even more, or straight down from Canada (Arctic) cold fronts or Siberian blasts. Then after it’s over we may get southern breezes from the Gulf of Mexico, the air gets damp from the Gulf air and warms up and then a cold front blasts down and freezes that moisture and adds to the freezing rain.

@cherokeepatti Wow!!! Talk about a cornucopia of weather! You get blasted from [i]everywhere[/i].

Where I live, we usually get the Atlantic Stream weather, and if there are winds we get whatever is happening in Florida and North Carolina...eventually.

@4meAndyou This is one reason we have so many tornadoes. but probably not the only reason.

Has been a wild ride over here all winter long. Already have some mushrooms and buds on a lot of my fruit trees.
Always get one last freeze and at least a day or 2 of snow in February here. Going to ruin the blueberries!!

@icedsky 😢😢😢
Colder than usual weather. I drove past one of our local lakes yesterday. Usually has some ice around the edges this time of year, but it was completely frozen over.
No...quite the opposite. It's March and the usual signs of spring are non existent. It's cold and snowing.

Gonna be in the 60s and 70s this week in NC. Not terribly unusual but it has been warmer than usual this winter
Confined · 56-60, M
Gonna have another brief polar vortex in a few days. Get out that heavy coat.

@Confined It's still so warm here. I am awake in the middle of the night because it's too hot in my bedroom. The wind is coming up and I can feel a faint chill in the air with the slider open.
our weather has gone back and forth. typical weather for this part of north caroina.

Our place was around 95F - a great day
4meAndyou · F
@nedkelly I would have been sweating bullets. Is that humid or dry heat? Makes a difference.
nedkelly · 61-69, M
@4meAndyou dry today, two days ago very humid and a massive storm
4meAndyou · F
@nedkelly It's humid here all the time. We are an area of swamps and ponds and lakes. In the summer, it's almost constantly miserable.
Eddiesolds · 61-69, M
Yes. Its on right now. The sun looks so beautiful today.
AlchemyFox · 36-40, F
Yup same here. All my spring bulbs are coming up.
4meAndyou · F
@AlchemyFox 😢 They will all be killed when the temps return to normal next week.

Yep
Was average 75 F throughout January here
It’s 32F right now

The opposite actually, it's going to snow soon apparently.
LilPrincess · 41-45, F
Its only 40 here in IN...i don't get that till Thursday 😭
Sadly yes.

It rained here for almost two weeks, the snow almost entirely melted.
It did melt, but the ginormous snow banks in the parking lots (from the plows) were still there, but small. Not one plus story tall, as they are typically in normal winter times.

And now again we are facing rain and plus (Celsius) temps.
