Yesterday it was around 70 and it'll be highs in the 60s and 70s for the next two weeks according to the forecast. :cool:

Fucking spring.

I'm excited though my allergies have been off the charts.

Time to bump this thread - it's snowing today in E-town. :(

Yay!  That means it's on its way soon.

Long-term forecast is calling for another nasty, snowy winter this year.  You hear that Meri?  Sweet!  :yeah:

Heh, that seems impossible when it's 88F/31C here.

Is this early for you?  The earliest snow I ever saw was September 21 (when I was in college in Michigan's upper peninsula).  That was a couple weeks early for them.
In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock

Whatever happens this winter, the weather is absolutely perfect today.

In Alberta you can get freak snowstorms almost every time of year.  I've seen one in July for pete's sake.

The snow today is melting as it hits the ground and there's been no meaningful accumulations, but it's still depressing.  The forecast has temps going back into the teens by the end of the week though.

:bleeding:

Still in the 90s here through mid-week but it looks like we'll be cooling off a little after that.

I'm speaking in celsius here - mid teens is quite pleasant.

It's nice.

10 degrees cooler would be nicer. We're supposed to get that this weekend.

I'm certainly looking forward to sub-80 days.  :lol:

Ugh.

So apparently we got up to 30cm (one foot) of snow today.  Thankfully I left work early, because my usual 1 hour commute took 2 hours (including picking up the boys from daycare).

Except we didn't go home - we went to get the boys their booster shots and flu shots.  After a 2 hour drive they were lots of fun once we start sticking needles in them. <_<

Then we go home, put the boys to bed.  Except of course then it's my turn to shovel out the driveway, which has 20-30cm of snow on it.  And it's still snowing as I'm going.  Once I finished I could have just started over again, the snow was still accumulating.

The drive tomorrow should be lots of fun. :rolleyes:

I recommend taking the day off.  That's what I did.

Can't.  Trial scheduled.  Same as every other day. :rolleyes:
