This is the winter that will not die.

Setting record cold temps not broken in over a 100 years.

AGW...yeah, right!

Temps expected to fall around freezing tonight and might get some "winter precip".

I saw that.  Single digits and a foot of snow in the Twin Cities. 

After a cold front dropped temps back into the 50's, last night, warmer air to move in starting today.  The first 90's are in store.  This is where I stop bragging about the weather, here.  Taipei has some of the hottest, most humid summers in the world, and last year was the hottest in history.  Almost every day in the mid to upper 90's with dew points in the upper 70s. Heat indexes from 110-125.  Every.  Day.  Late May to early September, with a re-appearance at the very end of September (all time record for the month of 101 set) and early October (all time record for the month of 99 set). 

This winter, though, has been below normal, capped by the pic of snow I took.  If I could just snowbird from November to April, life would be good.

I am not looking forward to the heat of NC summer ....... and the humidity ....... so far as long as it stays cool, the less sweltering time there will.

I hear that this weekend is supposed to bring us another 8-14". SMH. Facebook showed me that April 6th of last year, I posted a video I took driving my boat around on Maple Lake after I replaced on of my trailer bunks. As of now, I think there's a serious question as to whether the ice will be gone by the Walleye opener.

Now they're saying for Wright County where I live we're looking at a possible 12-21". Jesus Christ. That wasn't taking the Lord's name in vain, it was a prayer.

Crap weather in Minnie starting up...rain, snow...I saw sleet a bit ago as big as .22 Cal BB's.

Is that tool AlGore in town preaching his climate scam?  Cold crappy weather follows that ass-clown like fleas to dogs!

The Latest: Snow causes Wisconsin hotel roof collapse

AP15 Apr 2018

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The Latest on spring storm that dumped heavy snow on Upper Midwest, Plains states (all times local):
Officials say heavy snow caused part of a hotel roof to collapse in northeastern Wisconsin, but no one was hurt.

WLUK-TV reports that the roof collapsed Sunday over the pool at an Econo Lodge Inn & Suites in Ashwaubenon, which is next to Green Bay. No one was in the pool area at the time.
...
10 a.m.

A deadly storm system moving through the central and southern U.S. has dumped a thick blanket of snow on parts of Minnesota, Wisconsin and South Dakota and left parts of Michigan an icy mess.

The National Weather Service in Green Bay reported Sunday that more than 24 inches (61 centimeters) of snow had fallen in the northeastern Wisconsin communities of Tigerton and Big Falls.

About 200 Sunday flights have been canceled at Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport, where nearly 13 inches (33 centimeters) of snow has fallen and where blizzard conditions on Saturday forced the cancellation of nearly 470 flights.

also
The channel noted that if the snow in the Twin Cities rises above 13.6 it would be the third heaviest snowstorm there on record.

Well, Pat...Maple Grove got just a hair over 20" this weekend...and they are just bit south of me...It looks like mid-January around here...just so dangblasted tired of this winter  ::cussing:: !

I have drifts 3-4' high in parts...and we aren't even totally plowed out yet either, I suspect they'll get to that today...which means the remnants of the Everest and K2 piles they left for the season will be revitalized...maybe those remnants will be gone by May...

 ::pullhair::

Don't even want to think about the lake...this will all add to an already unbearably too much flooding issue...and I hope the old roof up there and skylight are holding up and not leaking.  I will have to get up there maybe this coming weekend...

Sounds like it will be memorable in the sense the Halloween Storm was memorable.

I feel for you.

Not.
