Euro says enjoy the ULLs MDW. 

I know you're kind of a bird guy. Seems like a good year no? I've had all sorts of fly catchers, warblers, buntings, tanagers. Seemingly more than usual.

Not looking likely. Continues to look like the Arctic/PNA domains are going to play a heavy influence at least into the first week of June. Maybe not so much the NAO or AO but I would have think some of the daily PNA values have to be nearing top 5 for the upcoming period. Going to be tough to get a really hot summer here, if for any reason we don't even look to be building any sustained or early heat in the southwest. There's been fluxes of some big early season heat in the Southwest into Texas but not sustaining.

 Nah. 70s. 
 

But yeah, it’s shat. Get it out of the way now rather than JJA. I don’t want another summer 2009.

Some of the people here should pool their money together in order to purchase some land in the Floribama area...and then open a commune....

There’s like 3 posters that refuse to install by this point . They’re ACATT and just refuse to admit how warm a spring it’s been . No installs. Just open windows with white painted walls turned yellow with pollen . 

Hmm a fan and a pool night's are 50s who needs AC for that 3 hr period it was 80.

[CoastalWx]

I did not install and looks like it won’t happen for awhile.

At least most of the helicopters and Oak dongs blew down in wind today . Get that nightmare over with.

I haven’t looked a lot. I’ve seen my usual on the feeders…rose breasted grosbeaks, catbirds, orioles, cardinals, etc. My robin is nesting in the garage again and the phoebe is in the run again too.

Avg doesn’t mean it can’t be cool nor does it mean it can’t be hot.

if the average temp is 23 and it’s 23 outside, it might be average, but that doesn’t change the fact that it’s cold.

if the average temp is 99 and it’s 99 out, it might be average, but that doesn’t change the fact that it’s hot.
