70 to 80 down here. Bracing for the heat, I imagine it will come in a few more weeks.

It’s already uncomfortably hot getting in your car at around 4 oclock if its parked outside.
The heat is going to take me by surprise and piss me off again this year, just like always.
Many dudes here have asked that thread titles not contain profanity.
93[sup]o[/sup] here in Tucson. We’re waiting for it to hit 100 so that the ice on the Santa Cruz river will melt.*
*Tired local meteorologist “humor.”
Even Cleveland hit 80 yesterday. But by Monday, we’ll be having “wet snow” . . . extending into early MAY!!!
Over 22’ of snow so far this year, and yep, It’s snowing now.
Mud season. There’s about 3 feet of snow still in the ‘yard’. In some places more.

Dude, you’re in Alaska. What do you expect?
ivylass, enjoying the 80[sup]o[/sup] weather but wishing we had about a week of nothing but solid downpour, thunder 'n lightning rain.

This is the first thing I thought of. It would be like if it was August here in South Florida and I pitted that it was so hot and humid.

You don’t understand: it was over, man - finally fucking OVER. It was in the mid 50s all week, no snow on the ground, things starting to bud, wearing short sleeved shirts to work. Yesterday’s forecast was for occasional rain, mixed with snow. The city had mothballed the entire snow removal fleet for the summer. You know…spring?
By noon, we had six inches. At 3:00 p.m. they shut down the job because it was coming down even harder and the temperature was at 32. When I got home, my bumper was plowing snow up my driveway. By six, there was over a foot on the ground.
This morning, as I gaze out at the winter wonderland that can suck my dick, the roof on the place I can see has at least 18" or more on it, and it’s 29 degrees, which means that all that wet sloppy shit that couldn’t be plowed because of the mothballed fleet has frozen into oil-pan destroying, transmission-ripping windrows of solid ice.

Quoted for truth. I’m surprised the deaths from other people just snapping haven’t gone up in Calgary. We are supposed to get well above zero tomorrow, though. YAY!!!11!!!
[/QUOTE]
Well, it’s tomorrow, and it’s already a beautiful day outside. Snow will melt today, that’s for sure.
It was a week of snow (over a foot, I think), and cold here in Alberta. During the past week, I drove between Calgary and Edmonton twice, and saw more serious accidents than I ever have before on that road. I cleared the snow from the front walk more than I did the entire rest of the winter. I had to take my parka and other winter gear out again. I’ve had it.
But today? Ooh, look! Bare ground!

I hear ya. We are just getting to the point where we could walk the dogs down the road and not get completely muddy.
Eh, still love it up here, and always will (up being altitude).
What is this thing ‘snow’ that y’all are talking about?
Yeah Chefguy, and I grinned at my daughter’s photos of the blizzard in Anchorage yesterday. Guess what’s all over the place here and coming down hard now? Uh huh, we are in whiteout conditions, and my flower beds, which were coming along nicely, are covered in white stuff more than two inches already. Yee-fricken-haw.

I did notice that when this thread was at the top of the forum, that it showed up as an elipsis on the main fora listing page, rather than as a thread title. Somebody is thinking of the children, apparently.
Last summer, my SO and I had the choice between Anchorage and Phoenix. I think we chose wisely.

Brutha, please. Give me a break.
Note in the second photo that the snow face on the roof is about half the size of the window below it. I’m assuming a 3’ window. Both of these taken just a few minutes ago out the window behind my computer.

If it weren’t for global warming the rest of you would in the same boat as Chefguy.
It’s been snowing every other day or so here in Utah until this week. It snowed on Wednesday, but it’s supposed to be clear and sunny with temperatures in the 50s for the weekend and the beginning of next week. I am really fucking tired of the snow. I don’t live in Alaska or Canada, and I don’t think it’s unreasonable for spring to start in April. At this rate, we’re not even going to get a spring. It’ll just keep snowing through May and then summer will arrive.
I miss Los Angeles. I miss it soooooooooo much.
I have sunburn from watching my kids soccer games this week in near 80 degree temps.
It’s snowing right now. (Boulder, CO).
It’s been really, really warm here in Hawaii due to the fact tradewinds have been very light the last few days.
Uncomfortably warm.
Hot and stuffy nights at around 85 degrees warm.
And the vog (no that’s not a typo) coming over from the Big Island’s newest eruptions isn’t bloody helping!
Thankfully I haven’t gotten any adverse health effects from it. At least not yet. They’re saying the tradewinds might come back today and help out.
Might.
Damn you tradewinds, come back. The still heat sucks.

Sure ChefGuy. Looks like you have some snow.
But I love living where I do. Wouldn’t you say the same?
Yesterday I bought another 5gal of gas for my plow truck. Eh. Probably won’t need it. Never know though. We are not done with April, and you never know what May will bring.
Good luck…
And as a side note, what do you drive?
