I think one thing the warminista's needs to remember is that there has been little winter weather in October as of recent times. And November has not been a peach either except 2018. Is it fair that coldinista's only get 3 -4 out of 12 months? :-) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlislePaWx Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 High yesterday was 60.4 and the low yesterday was 20.1. That produced another 40-degree diurnal for the season. My snow (which was only 2.3" max) and was located in a no-sun area close to my house, managed to survive until yesterday evening when the extended warmth of the day finally took it out. Low this morning was 29.7 right after sunrise. Temp now has rebounded up to 53, headed for the 60's this afternoon. Beware the Ides of March... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canderson Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 68 out - might get 3 70s this week. I think that'll shatter a record for most 70s as of St Patrick's Day for MDT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that'll shatter a record for most 70s as of St Patrick's Day for MDT. Has there been more than one day above 70 this year? Maybe, cannot remember. 1990 had 4 days in the 80's before St Pats day. Edit-just checked. 2 days so far but MDT is only at 66 as of 3 PM. So I looked at one year, 1990....it had 5 days above 70 before St Pats day (and St Pats day was in the 70's as well). So, not such a rare feat. Only one day in March, March 1, does not feature record high temps in the 70's. 17 out of the 31 March days have records 80 and over. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canderson Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Speaking of the time change, it actually might finally be killed for good!!! If this passes the house, we'll never go back to standard time (DST forever - well after 2023 it appears since people need to time for contract times like airlines and all). @SenateCloakroom Passed by Unanimous Consent, S.623: Sunshine Protection Act, as amended (to make Daylight Saving Time permanent)@SenRubioPress/@SenWhitehouse/ others 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DST=Daylight Saving Time which above states that this S.623 makes DST permanent. If so, I will be so incredibly disappointed. That means the earliest the sun can ever set is 5:43pm around here in perpetuity. As I said yesterday, it also means that the sun won't rise until 8:30am for nearly 5 weeks after the winter solstice. That means it will be totally dark until 8:00am. YUCK! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll have two more changes in 2023 - a fall back then a spring forward - then done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the Windows or Mac's sitting at your desk, the code running back end systems. DST type stuff is programmed in countless routines running systems all across the country. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbler86 Posted March 15, 2022 Author Share Posted March 15, 2022 LOL! What a crock, IMO. I have never had a pet that cared when they woke up if the wake up include the food bowl. I do not have a real opinion on the time thing other than I would rather keep the time on Winter/Standard time if we are not going to switch. Our Pets will survive either way!

Bubbler86 Posted March 15, 2022 Author Share Posted March 15, 2022 High here today was a fairly mild 66. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voyager Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 High today was 69.8 in my backyard, so technically 70. As for the DST argument. I don't much care for the time change, but I wish they would just leave it standard time. I lived with all year standard time in Arizona, and it was no big deal. Having DST year 'round, as was mentioned above, means it will be dark in the morning until 8am for about a month straight during part of December and January, which sucks, in my opinion. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarlislePaWx Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Well...when I shared the Daylight Saving Time news with my wife she immediately said to me, "doesn't it now have to pass through the house?" I got temporarily excited, thinking that right now it wasn't a done deal. However, then I proceeded to think that probably pretty easily a majority, which will be comprised of both sides, will be in favor of this. So, I guess I can pray for a miracle now? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Itstrainingtime Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 70 for the high here. Boo to DST. I will greatly miss pre-5pm sunsets leading up to Christmas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
