I don't know what the heck is going on with mother nature, but she better get her shit together. On Monday it was about 70, today when I went to work it was about 40, now at 9:00, there's about 2 inches of snow on the ground.

Ah...the first false spring. We too have false spring in the PNW. The next week will be cold and then you have a second false spring....and then another cold snap. Then it will finally be spring...maybe...sometimes there's a 3rd false spring, but that is uncommon

Yeah I live in OH and twice in the last 2 weeks, it was springlike (50's-60's) and then bam! Lots of snow! It all melted within a day or two. Now we had a tornado nearby this morning and high winds all day and in the 50's and Monday is showing 70's. I really wish each season was more normal like it used to be years ago.

I know, those 70’s degree were so nice…I was so sad to feel the bitter wind whipping around us last evening and to wake up to like 13 degrees- ugh!!

We woke up to 60+ in Western Pa. As I was kissing the boys good bye the sky’s opened with a spring thunderstorm…in February. By the time I left school it was already in the 40s. When we went to Home Depot it was down to low 40s and was sleeting. The wind is wicked currently and the temp is expected to drop to low 30s before rebounding by the weekend when it will be in the 60s again…

A couple of days ago I woke up to rain, which turned to snow, then a snow squall, we then had an earthquake (not normal), the sun came out and melted everything and then we had more snow. The day before was in the 60’s.

We call it “Redbud Winter” here in Tennessee - or at least the older adults do. 🙂

Yeah, but this is worse than normal. The howling winds make it worse whether cold or warm.

We went from 15C (60F?) to -10C (15f?) in less than 24 hours. Even for Canada that's insane. They're saying it's El Nino, I think.
