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?

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.

@cherokeepatti It's crazy. I don't understand how that can even happen.

@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.
