Well, Rick, seems that our area is gonna be cooler?.....

[Rick]

Well, yeah. We live in God's country. Right?

[hunter63]

I own an outdoor service business and it revolves around the weather, this has been a very cold year so far. And the online weather stations have been very wrong, listing low or mild winds when its very windy, or exaggerating the temp to a few degrees warmer than it really is, and not even being close to calling the rain correctly. And these are the same "experts" that claim they can predict the weather out for years with all the global warming BS...

Well we head to the mountains for the summer. We might have to find higher altitudes if it gets hotter. I'm not moving to Denver though. Maybe WV.

[Rick]

It's a temperature conspiracy, no doubt. I guess you're just lucky to live where you do.

It may well be too late to change it now. Temps will trend higher globally and storms will become more intense. Note that it's global climate change, not global warming. Most areas will warm but changing ocean current and wind patterns will lead to localized cooling in places. And of course, when it's January and you have a 60 degree day it doesn't mean it's not still winter as you may have sadly learned- it was just a blip, a little break in the cold temps. Climate change doesn't mean each day will be hotter than the one before; it's a trend. Even if some politician managed to bring a snowball inside during the winter.

Well it as sure been cooler here so far! it was 63 degrees this morning!

Well, spring sprung, then went on holiday. It's been pretty nippy over here for a while.

Well from practically NO summer last year, right into the frying pan of this year!

Alaska sets new record for earliest day with temperatures in the 90s
May 28, 2015

It’s been a warm, dry spring for much of interior Alaska. On the afternoon of May 23, a new statewide record was set for the earliest day in the year with a temperature in the 90s. A daytime high of 91°F was noted by a cooperative observer in Eagle, where temperatures have been recorded (with some breaks) since the 1890s.

We had practically NO winter, and a very dry one. Now we are getting a long spring with lots of rain.....still not enough rain to fill our reservoirs. Maybe Texas can ship us some water.
