Pretty pleasant day outside so far here at the coast IMO
-
It felt like March yesterday afternoon. I got cold mowing grass.
-
I have a wild turkey who has become a regular visitor, easting the bird seed that falls from the feeder onto the ground. Makes a mess of the mulch though. They also will eat flowers, so I have been chasing it away lately. It's hard enough dealing with the deer, but Irish Spring seems to do it for the most part.
-
Absolutely! It's WAY overdue.
-
Winds putting a damper on my weekend birdwatching for what feels like the 9th weekend in a row
-
New York City has had five consecutive days with lows of 49° or below after May 20th for the first time since 1992. The last time New York City had five consecutive such days was May 24-28, 1992.

Nice and sunny now, looking at satellite looks like thick clouds are spinning in . I’m ready for sun and summer
-
Wasn't there a good one in May of 1976?
-
Sorry Steve, I just lost my 15 year old a few weeks ago, miss that girl every day still.
-
After a relaxation, the models are showing another big trade wind burst in June, likely leading to some more cooling next month
-
Sunny for now. Just checked radar and want to cry.

You guys wanted it

The idea is that these baseline jumps in temperatures are permanent across the globe. But the door is always open for very high end volcanic activity which would shift us back temporarily to colder regimes of the past. Though after a number of years we would revert warmer again. This storm track shift to warmer and further north is still a work in progress after 7 seasons with the record low snowfall totals. I think it’s possible the there could be some shift in the way the Pacific is warming which could lead to benchmark snowstorm tracks returning from time to time. But I don’t think it’s very likely the record 2010-2018 with the 50 to 100 year concentration of KU Benchmark tracks will return absent major volcanism. Through the 1970s the world was still in a much colder climate. This allowed the CONUS to have the #1 coldest winter since 1895 in 1978-1979. The CONUS also experienced their 7th coldest winter in 1977-1978 and 12th coldest in 1976-1977. The Northeast recorded their #5 coldest winter in 1976-1977 and 11th coldest in 1977-1978. Our first baseline jump in temperatures across the world occurred in 1982-1983. Across the CONUS the coldest winters of this era were 1983-1984 at #18 and 1984-1985 at #19 coldest. For the Northeast the coldest winter of this era was 1993-1994 which ranked as #13 coldest since 1895. The next global baseline jump in temperatures occurred in 1997-1998 and was much larger than 1982-1983. So the coldest CONUS winter of this era was 2009-2010 which ranked at #22 coldest since 1895. The coldest Northeast winter of this era was 2014-2015 which ranked as #22 coldest. Another major baseline temperature jump happened in 2015-2016. So the coldest winter of this era was 2018-2019 at #84 coldest for the CONUS. The most recent even larger baseline jump in temperatures started in 2023-2024. Our coldest CONUS winter so far was 2024-2025 at #104 coldest. This past winter was also the 27 warmest on record for the CONUS even with the coldest temperatures in the Northern Hemisphere focusing into the CONUS in January. But December was so warm for the CONUS at #4 warmest that is balanced out the winter average to much warmer.

46 for the low imby. Wind already starting to crank.
- Today

Steve and myself are ready for warm lol.

57 on the eastern shore. That’s chilly for the beach

This muck is going nowhere fast . I was hoping we'd get lucky.
-
For once we agree. It's time.

And so it continues: .SYNOPSIS... -- Changed Discussion -- * Cooler than average holiday weekend with brisk breezes and spotty showers giving way to more sunshine and marginally warmer temperatures by Memorial Day * Periods of rain return from later Tuesday through the end of next week; Wednesday looks like the coolest day * Although temperatures will gradually moderate into the end of May, there are no signs of a substantial summertime warmup as the calendar flips to June -- End Changed Discussion --
