Everyone is saying it's going to be a super hot summer. I don't know if they are basing it on anything concrete or just saying that because the winter has been so cold.

Potential for more snow Monday. I'm hearing anything from 1/2 an inch to 12 inches... How's that for commitment? lol In all fairness, though, it is too early to say. I'll wait until late Sunday to place my bet.

2013 was one of the hottest years on record. Damn climate change.

It is very sunny but quite chilly this morning.

^ Same here. It feels quite cold but it is lovely having the sun streaming in through the window.

 

[PTree15]

It's clouding up here. It felt warmer than it has in days, though. I think it was supposed to hit 30 degrees.

 

[KLS52]

I am no longer in the path of the storm. Maybe 1-3 tomorrow and 0 on Monday.

 

[PTree15]

I am going to watch the news at 11, but we may be in the same boat snow-wise. The CT coast may get a lot more, though.

 

[shyvas]

It looks like it's going to be a glorious sunny day today. I can see lots of cyclists out of my bedroom window.

 

[KLS52]

It's a little chilly here.

 

[shyvas]

Sunny, chilly and windy.

 

[PTree15]

Cloudy and cold. Still way below our usual average for this time of year.

NOAA Issues Official El Nino Watch As Forecasters Predict Year Of Oceanic Warming

WASHINGTON (AP) — Federal forecasters predict a warming of the central Pacific Ocean this year that will change weather worldwide. And that's good news for a weather-weary United States.

The warming, called an El Nino, is expected to lead to fewer Atlantic hurricanes and more rain next winter for drought-stricken California and southern states, and even a milder winter for the nation's frigid northern tier next year, meteorologists say.

Globally, it can mean an even hotter year coming up and billions of dollars in losses for food crops.

The National Oceanic Atmospheric and Administration issued an official El Nino watch Thursday. An El Nino is a warming of the central Pacific once every few years, from a combination of wind and waves in the tropics. It shakes up climate around the world, changing rain and temperature patterns.

This what I'm seeing for next week but we all know its way too soon. It's still fun, though.

It's a little chilly here.

It seems to be boiling hot over here. There are many people just wearing t shirts.

 

[Moll Flanders]

Yesterday was the warmest day of the year so far and it's sunny today but it meant to get cooler.

 

[shyvas]

It's going to be another glorious warm sunny day with temps around 22°C.

 

[PTree15]

It's beautiful today! Sunny and in the 50s. Tomorrow we're getting rain and maybe some snow/ice stuff (ugh!!!) and then it's back to the freezing weather on Thursday. But today is a welcome break from the cold.

today is a welcome break from the cold

Hell yeah it is! It was the same here but tonight all the way into Thursday morning we are expected to get 6-9 inches of snow. Then back into the 40s by Saturday. Craziness!
