Today is the Santa Clause parade. It's pissing rain. I remember when I was a kid, by the time it was the parade -in fact, by Halloween, we had at least a few feet of snow, and the temperature was actually in the negatives which suppresses the rain.

Now, it's just pure crap almost year round. Can't stand rain. Makes everything wet and crappy.

November historic (1971 to present) average rainfall 67.3mm, average snowfall 8.1cm. November has always been one of the wettest months in your area. Snow doesnt historically pickup until December.

The poster that pointed out that as a child your Christmas parade was probably in December was probably right.

Three days ago it was 75ºF here in WI. Two days ago it snowed.

Global warming? Maybe. Climate shifts? Definitely...

It's not because of global warming that you're seeing rain, you turd. It's because it's November 8th.
