Chinook Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 why does Toledo average 1-2 degrees warmer than Fort Wayne when it is more north? The difference is shown to be 1 degree in October and 1.5 degree in July. I think it's bad data. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure where the ASOS station is located. Seems like it’s either that or the lake somehow affects it positively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OrdIowPitMsp Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago I’ve been seeing trumpeter swans for a week. The robins must have gotten the memo it’s now Metrological spring because I saw close to a dozen this morning. The ground is still frozen and somewhat snow covered.
