Supposed to be 87 today.  :mad:

Just a week ago I thought we were pretty much out of winter with little snow. But February seems to be our most snowy month and we did get a good amount across New England, up to a foot more northerly, just about four inches where I am. Going to snow/rain/sleet over night but clear up by mid day.

Snow drops out in numbers here, daffodils are now coming into bloom, beginning to think we'll get away with just one day of snow this winter.  :bowler:

Temperatures supposedly up to 18C this Friday.

Rare sunny day here. Back to the monsoon Saturday.

Tomorrow there's an outside chance somewhere in the UK the mercury will hit 70F, first time ever during Winter according to records.

Today it touched 69.1F near where I used to live in Wales.  :bowler:

This early 2019 sucks. We get hot weather but it's raining. Then it gets dramatically cold so fast that the water hasn't had time to drain so now everything is ice. Minus 20 ice too.

My driveway is a liability disaster waiting to happen. (Just like the one of everyone else I know)

Toronto = same.

Had three-four  inches of solid ice on my drive last week, no chance of getting rid of it.

My father in law insisted on attacking his with an axe, gave up after chipping away a hole the size if a dinner plate. Fortunately, because that was a disaster waiting to happen.  :lol:

I don't think we'll top yesterday's record highs, but still a pleasant 65-66F here this afternoon.  :bowler:

Crazy windy yesterday, quite un-nerving at times. Today still windy but a lot less so. Cold temps the last couple of days as winter appears to be giving another push.

Air quality is horrific today.

While it has never been good here there has been a notable decrease in quality the last few months.

I use an ap that measures it as

Green 0-50 good
Yellow 51-100 moderate
Orange 101-150 unhealthy for sensitive groups
Red 151-200 unhealthy
Purple 201-300 very unhealthy
Maroon 301-500 Hazardous

It's been in the purple all day today. First time I've seen that color ever, with numbers in the 240s. Been red all the last week just about. This is China level shit.

Just ordered an air purifier for the apartment.

Jet: I see.
