Thanks to the "shutdown," many systrms used by NOAA to warn people of severe weather are not in operation at this time. Should bring us back to the 1960s if it goes on for much longer.

Weeelll, there is this global warming thing that has been mostly ignored for the last half century or so...

I doubt if Mother Nature is a one-trick pony in any case...

As if this week wasn't active enough, the next couple of days will see Tropical Storm (potentially Hurricane) Karen making landfall on the northern Gulf Coast, a major severe weather outbreak across Iowa and southern Minnesota, and the first major blizzard of the year in the upper Plains.

50+ MPH Santa Ana winds, single-digit humidity and a Red Flag Wildfire Warning here this weekend. Lovely.

People on QRZ should be thrilled.

Past peak for foliage here. Forecast for tonite 31°F and flurries are already falling in the Catskills. It was 34°F last night.

Hopefully winter will not last until the end of April this time. We still had snow on the ground until the last week of April this spring.

We went from days in the 70s with nights in the low 60s to days in the 50s and nights in the low 30s.
Varies greatly around here with the rolling hills. The weather station in one part of town might say 40 while 2 miles away it might be 32. If you've ever ridden down the road on a bike or with the windows cracked and felt a sudden change in air temperature then you know what I'm talking about.

The rolling hills of the region, which is part of and just below the foothills of the Appalachian Chain, have often been said to be reminiscent of the rolling hills of the Scotland and Ireland. For this, and other reasons, there is a rich Scots/Irish heritage celebrated here. Matter of fact, there are families that claim to have been here since the late 1600s.
