IT WAS EIGHTY DAMN DEGREES LAST WEEK! (Northeast Ohio here) (technically 77, but meh....)

This winter has been nothing but MASSIVE SNOW STORM followed by mild 50/60 degree weather followed by MASSIVE SNOW STORM. Just two days ago, it was in the 60s, IIRC (didn't go outside; I was sick). So of COURSE, we're expected to get 6-8 inches of snow overnight. OF COURSE.

I work in the schools and they'll probably be closed tomorrow (but I'm not going since I'm just now getting over the flu). We've already had 3 snow days (2 in a row). I just can't wait for this to be over. >_<

 

[How About No]

Lol yep

Last week: I'm out in a tshirt this is awesome

This week: We just got several inches of snow

Tonight: I can't feel my balls anymore

 

[ExplodingKetchup]

also is northeast Ohio. I wore shorts last week

 

[Iolo]

I'm not sure Chicago got any snow at all during the entire month of February. Kinda freaky.

 

[Eblo]

It was almost 80 degrees here in southern Ohio last Friday.

 

[Tall4Life]

NE Ohio as well. I wore shorts and sandals last Monday, had to wear a winter jacket today.

 

[One Eyed Willy]

This is a La Nina year, it was always going to be warm for you. El Nino/La Nina years always flip like this, it's happened before and well documented.

January too. Most I can remember is a few flakes ever now and then. Feels like I never had to clean snow off the car in morning at all.

Its hardly snowed this year and its weird as hell.

Climate change has me terrified.

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

There was a massive snowstorm in Idaho this year that shut down the schools for a couple of days. I have never seen anything like it before.

Meanwhile, in California:

 

[Kisaya]

Eh, this is my second year in the Midwest, but in the Northeast we've always have this "fake spring" around February. The lack of snow though is certainly alarming.

 

[LegalEagleMike]

Southern Ohio here, has been no measurable snow all winter. Most mild winter I have ever gone through.

 

[bloodforge]

Columbus area here. It was in the 60s most of the week.

It just snowed.

Weather is all over the place.

 

[highrider]

DC area is always weird during winter. It can be pretty snowy and cold but then mild the next year.

 

[Escape Goat]

Ohio, where 77 is 80.

 

[Tetra-9]

I'm not sure Chicago got any snow at all during the entire month of February. Kinda freaky.

Chicago-area native here and we are right there with ya. We barely got any snow this year. It has been like this for the past few years too

 

[ZOONAMI]

We've had like no snow all winter in the twin cities. It's weird.

 

[Wag]

Ohio, where 77 is 80.

Was 73 a couple of days ago in Boston, will be 10 tomorrow night.

 

[NoblesseOblige]

Here in Michigan on Tuesday it was 66. Super rainy.

Then Wednesday it dropped to below 20 and snowed.

45+ degree temp reduction in under 30 hours.

 

[Papercuts]

Western PA, and yeah it's been dumb as hell.

Caught a nasty cold a few weeks ago probably from the flip flopping bullshit weather.

 

[AWizardDidIt]

Meanwhile, in California:

Yuuuup

been a fucked up winter all around tbh

 

[hodayathink]

Chicago-area native here and we are right there with ya. We barely got any snow this year. It has been like this for the past few years too

Past couple years we've gotten at least one week of biting cold, though. None of that this year.

 

[TheOGB]

We've had like no snow all winter in the twin cities. It's weird.

I cackled when that big ass snow storm from a week or two ago shifted south and just missed us

 

[Kickz]

Minneapolis checking in, we have had basically no snow this winter.

And temps have been mild for most of this winter in the 40s with alot of 60 degree days sprinkled in.

I like it, more of this instead of 10 degree BS

 

[mo60]

A few weeks ago where I live which is Edmonton Alberta in Canada the temperatire reached nearly 20 degrees celsius. Now it's well below seasonal even though it looks like it will warm up for a bit and go back to around -5 degrees celsius and -15 degrees celsius early next week.

 

[irfaanator]

the alternating days of 60 degrees then 30 then back to 60 here in ohio have definitely been pretty dumb. Im fine w/ no snow since I have an hour and ten minute drive to work already
