It's either global warming or the end of the World...

We had all four seasons... in 2 days.

Yesterday it was 90, this morning it was 70, at 11:30 the wind blew in and it was colder'n a miner's bellybutton in the klondike. Now it is raining... I might as well move to a place with decent weather.



I haven't had to water the lawn for 2 months... This used to be the desert.

strange weather here too...we had almost no snow to speak of...I don't remember every seeing any snow removal equipment on the roads...any snow that did fall lasted only a couple of days as opposed to several months and it was only a couple inches at most...we even had a thunder storm in January this year! (never seen that before)

Here in Central European Russia we have delayed spring. Delay was about two weeks. Autumn and Winter were delayed at least two weeks too. Looks like we live on Julian calendar again. According to Julian it's April, 2nd now.

Imagine piles of snow 2m high melting in 2-3 days. Sidestreets in my block were turned into mountain streams, and I don't like such exotic adventures in my neghbourhood.

I don't think it's "global warming". This winter we finally had -35C here in MSK, last time I remember such weather was in the 80s.

Cold and rainy in So. Cal., delayed spring in Britain and Central Europe.

15 years ago we blamed everything on El Nino, now on Global Warming.

I wonder if weather might just be a chaotic system?

If it is we can give scientists grants for a few billion dollars, give them 20 or 30 years, a few more extensions on the grants..............and they will come up with...........a theory.
Tis not a problem.

We have not had this much snow for so long since 94. Spring is setting in now and it all went away over a couple of weeks. This has been the kind of winter that i remember from when i was a kid.

The city of Bergen known here for all its rain is dry as a bone and its unbelivable, but they are telling the people there to save water!!

They are predicting that this will be the hottest summer in a long time and extreme heat in july/august.


So.. except for Bergen we are having the most "normal" winter ever. (with normal I mean that its the kind of winter that parents and grandparents remember and the kind of winter that foreigners thinks norway has all the time.) If the predicted hot and dry summer arrives then it gets "normal" to the point that its almost scary.
