We may finally be enduring the:
Winter That Never Ends
I’ve never seen prolonged cold like this, this late into Spring.
Another snow event on tap for Friday-Saturday.
My Twins are currently in the middle of a 10 game homestand too.
Game temps have been below 32F for 3 games already.
Just for reference, the average daily high for MSP today is 55F.

It's a very pretty day looking out from the inside, mid-50's, gorgeous sunshine, but a north wind. Bah. It's too chilly to do anything outside.

Awwww : ( I kind of hate that and love that at the same time. I try not to let the weather affect my decision making, but sometimes I don't feel like dealing with the rain or the cold or the snow!

Bee-u-tee-ful day on the East Coast. I've been doing some cleanup and I hope to get my pressure washer out by Saturday. Oh gawds, I can hardly wait. Zoom Zoom

National Weather Service is saying 10-16” of snow Saturday into Sunday.
Oh yeah, Twins are playing at home both days.

I'm beginning to wonder about that stupid Farmers Almanac. What a racket.

It's "89" degrees and humid here today, with dangerous lightning, heavy rain and winds, and damaging large "hail" in many parts of the "Sunshine" state now.
Right now, here it's raining, thundering, and windy, more to likely follow!

It's really nice today about 60 and a light breeze mostly sunny and it smells really good like the soil was just turned on the 4th range road. I hope Spring has arrived!

I have my air on for the first time this year. Kinda bummed about that but glad I made it until May. If I hadn't been doing yard work I might have been able to hold out but I'm a sweaty filthy mess and I wanted to sit and cool off for a minute or 30.

84F here yesterday.
2 weeks ago we were digging out from 17” of snow.
Minneapolis City Lakes still haven’t officially had their ‘ice outs’.
This year we’ve set records for latest ice outs and had the 2nd coldest April on record.

I've been thinking about how this summer will be the summer we all burn alive.

Only if I forget to put on sunscreen while I'm down in Miami. Then again, most of the places we're going to have AC so I should be fine either way.

Earth in ‘Greatest Two-Year Cooling Event in a Century
Our planet has just experienced the most extreme two-year cooling event in a century. But where have you seen this reported anywhere in the mainstream media? The 2016-18 Big Chill was composed of two Little Chills, the biggest five month drop ever (February to June 2016) and the fourth biggest (February to June 2017). A similar event from February to June 2018 would bring global average temperatures below the 1980s average. February 2018 was colder than February 1998. To put this temperature drop in context, consider that this is enough to offset by more than half the entirety of the global warming the planet has experienced since the end of the 19th century
