How Wierd is Your Weather . . . .

England - Snowing like the North Pole

Europe - Deep Freeze

Alaska - Super Deep Freeze & Snow

South Florida - "Tropcal Depression" forming - in February

...............   2012?  .....................

I'm in Colder-than-Hell, Alberta and yesterday was 0 C.  When I came last year at this time it was consistantly -30 to -40 C.

Think About It

  SKEETER- Been very weird in Northern California , especially in the Sierra mountains where we live. Not much rain at all, nor hardly any snow. Even at higher elevations ski resorts don't have near the snowpack we had last year. Last year was the strongest winter since 1950 / 1951 . Most snowfall. But this year, not much. Winter isn't over yet but there is talk of droughts and water cutbacks if this continues to summer . Not to mention the forest fire hazard ! Peace out, Mr. Flipper

On Monday, there was talk that it was windy in the Keys.  Today, it's raining, humid, low "hurricane" looking clouds. I figured a 'cooling' front was hitting Florida from the North.  Then, I overheard that there is a tropical depession in South Florida!  WTF?  That's supposed to be in June to October!

What do I have to complain about?  It ain't 0 degrees here!  Sorry to gripe, when there are many much worse off!

Flipper, those farmers in Central Caliornia are also going to have to curse God for causing water woes!

Flipper, those farmers in Central Caliornia...

I'm in Central California's San Joaquin Valley, and it's been dry and much warmer than usual.  Feb and March can be wet but as Flipper and Skeeter1 said, if this keeps up there will be drought and water woes for the farmers.

There hasn't been much of the usual heavy fog either.

It was 69 degrees in downtown San Jose, CA this afternoon.  Felt like late Fall.  We are expecting rain tomorrow - haven't had much of that this year.

If a virtually snowless winter with temps in the 50's is weird weather for the northeast, I like it!

The weather was the news in 2011. Maybe 2012 will be more of that....

The weather is normal, man has only been recording the weather for 200 years at the most, so what is normal?

  We have had one of the warmest winters in Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo counties, very warm and dry Winter.  Flipper, I heard Reno, Nev is having one of the drying winters ever, how warm has your days been up north?

England - Snowing like the North Pole

Not in Southampton - we haven't had so much as flake this year!!!

Northumberland having a very mild winter so far. No snow and a beautiful sunny day again.

I'm with you finallysomeprid....wierd compared to what? What was it like this time 2,000 years ago? or even 500 years ago????

Suffolk (UK) was having a very mild winter with no snow until last weekend, then we had five inches dumped on us Saturday night. Now it's sunny but colder than a witch's tit.

Oh jeez, someone has started the Brits going about the weather, this thread will never end !

colder than a witch's tit.

I want to test that assumption.

I've got two feet of snow outside my window. Do I win?!

My part of the UK had no snow but Rome had a blizzard!  LOL Phizzy!! You're right! :D

Our winter here [Northern Indiana] has been non-typical. We have had a few winter blasts with snow and ice - but then viola, clear and sun and melts it all off. January might have been one of the warmest recorded. It seems weird to me - but then I have only been alive 56 years, out of billions this planet has been here [bowing to FSP's on-target comments in that regard].

This winter has beat the hell out of most here. But in some ways it seems like a very long March. With all the mud and ugly, I would almost as well like the snow cover and cold.
