Man, there were some cold days last month...below freezing during daytime and 10-20 degrees during the night, and now it seems like everyday is above freezing.

I hate global warming.

I drove a rental truck and trailer from AZ to MN this summer. I contributed to the global warming that is keeping your temps high this winter Parasitic. I'm sorry...had i known, i wouldn't have moved. :(

No sign of global warming here. We've actually had quite a bit of snow here in the PNW. Nice troll attempt though..

It seems to me like winter is shifting a bit. We don't get into the real cold stuff until later and it seems to last longer on the other side of the season.

Actually, it's been perfect weather here (lower 30's) for skiing and ice skating.

It's been rather warm here too.
Today there wasn't even any frost on my windshield.

That said, there's supposed to be 3-4 inches of snow today here ....

It's the difference between climate and weather.

January and February were always colder than Nov and Dec. It's just the time it takes the Earth to cool from the fewer hours of sunlight.

it's february that's a killer.

november seemed unusually cold this year, but december feels like it's been about average.

Yeah, it's 42F here in Buffalo, most of the snow has melted. By February I'm worn down though. Two months of wind chill - BRRRR!

Our temp is only 26 today.. but on Wednesday it's gonna be 48! People here must be starting forest fires and all running their cars the next few nights in a row so our global warming can get up to that temp by wednesday! ;)

It's below 40, so I really don't care on which side of freezing it is. I just wish it would pick a side and stay there. I hate the thaw/freeze cycles. It makes everything a muddy mess.

Yeah, November and December usually aren't much of anything, cooler, a little snow...then January comes and thats when your ass really gets frozen. Then it snows a metric shit ton in Feb, march is a messy crapshoot and april it starts to warm up. At least, thats how it usually is around here.
