NOAA Weather

I thought by now we'd be wearing shorts in the winter and radiation suits in the summer...

Coolest since 2001 but warmer than average.

Winter has been warmer than average

It was all over the map here. A week of frigid 10 degree weather, followed by 55 degree spring-like temps.

It's here, it's just hiding from us.

It's playing a huge game of hide and seek.

Here in the midwest, you cant deny that there is some crazy shit going on.

Recently in St.Louis

70 degrees on Sunday.....went out and threw the softball around, people were golfing.
Come Tuesday, we get 8 inches of snow.

We've also had tornados in the middle of winter with snow on the ground. Another thing I cant remember ever recalling is snow coming down and hearing thunder at the same time.

Coolest since 2001... WOW....

"Hey, boss, should we go with the coolest since 2001 story or the (more relavent) warmer than average story? Coolest? Really? Ok...."

people, global warming = weather that's fucked up, so extreme winter + scorching summer is on the rise.

Thundersnow is quite possibly the 2nd coolest weather event I've ever witnessed. Tornado takes the cake, though.
