SnoSki14 Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 I think the lack of a snow pack up north is really what has moderated the temps. The week could have been a stretch of slightly below normal temperatures had we had a normal snow pack to the north as well as some rain. Lack of snow cover and rain equals higher temperatures so I'm not surprised. I think things will eventually normalize over the next couple months and we may very well be near normal or a bit below by the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cold&cloudy Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 This past weekend was horrible.. Yesterday was okay, until it rained late, but overall the weekend stunk.. If anyone here likes that type of weather they should seriously seek professional help.. There's nothing wrong with enjoying rainy days. Telling others to seek professional help for enjoying certain types of weather is pretty silly. It has no effect on you whatsoever if someone else enjoys it.

Telling others to seek professional help for enjoying certain types of weather is pretty silly. It has no effect on you whatsoever if someone else enjoys it. Let me be clear... Most rational people consider us nuts when we all root for snowstorm or bad weather... So there is a distinction that must be made here.. There are times I love a good rainstorm that goes along with a gloomy day.. And there is nothing wrong with that.. However, this past weekend involved no big storm, barely any rain, no wind and just generally boring, cold, useless weather.. I don't see anything exciting in that... And to "love" that type of weather would clearly make you an anomoly in any sort of situation.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CooL Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Even in a normal or slightly below normal summer, we will still be 80-90 everyday with mid 90's mixed in once in a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Analog96 Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Even in a normal or slightly below normal summer, we will still be 80-90 everyday with mid 90's mixed in once in a while. Which is why I can't ever understand why people want record hot summers. All it does is make it dangerously hot to go outside and run up your electric bill.

pazzo83 Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Honestly, with upper 50's to perhaps low-mid 60's coming up this weekend, nobody can complain.. Ya it won't be 80 - but who cares.. It's sensible weather in April and provides ample opportunity to go outside and enjoy SPRING.. That's what it's all about.. I'm all for early spring warmth, but sometimes, normal to slightly above normal weather in Spring is just fine.. This past weekend was horrible.. Yesterday was okay, until it rained late, but overall the weekend stunk.. If anyone here likes that type of weather they should seriously seek professional help.. Totally agree. 60s are just fine for this time of year. Very comfortable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cfa Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 And you can't do anything or enjoy anything outdoors. People must like staying indoors all summer. Record heat doesn't keep me inside, it feels WAY better than standing 40+ minutes at a bus stop on a windy 30-something degree day. It starts feeling like Pluto after the first 20 minutes, I don't go numb in 95+ warmth. Gloomy, windy, cool/cold, & wet weather (like Saturday) does keep me home though, unless I'm going somewhere that's indoors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormlover74 Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Well for those of us that can't just run off to the beach on a wednesday I'd much rather have pleasant weather than arriving to work at 830 sweating like a pig. If you can survive 10 minutes waiting for a subway underground on a 100 degree day then you are superhuman... There's almost always a breeze by the ocean.

Cfa Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 How the heck could you be comfortable in 95+ degree heat? 95 feels good to me. I have a high heat tolerence. I probably sweat more in the winter (roasting in a coat) than I do in the summer. If winter wasn't so inhumane and more like 2011-2012 but milder with a little more snow (10-15") and every summer was like 2010 & 2011 but with more thunderstorms I'd be in heaven.
