That's amazing, the Ozarks were warmer than me in the deep SE.

I wish the whipsawing weather would stop. There is no time to adjust to the current temps before we've blasted into the opposite direction.
 
Yup, it was in the high 60s here on Thursday.

Today, Sunday, the predicted high is 71! Cold front will move in later and th temps for the week will be more typical of this time of the year….high 30s low 40s
 

Coldest month in a long time with high winds a good deal of the ime and Friday there was over a foot of snow. Certainly different than the years proceeding.
 
When I can turn the A/C off for a few days around here, that is when it’s Wintertime for me.
.. reports are that will happen next week - for a few days anyway.

Most years, the cold comes and stays for awhile in February, so this year is normal here.
 
I actually enjoy the warmer climate where I live. I hardly have to shovel snow any more in winters, which is nice.

I feel for the people who are suffering from floods, mudslides, sweltering heat, and fires, though, due to climate change. People are being displaced by rising sea levels, which is adding to the migration crisis around the world. And it's only going to get worse.

Maybe AI will come up with a solution.
 
It's been crazy warm here. This morning at dawn it was 59 (15C) and the high this afternoon is forecast to be 77(25C). But tomorrow we are supposed to have a cold front pass through and by Tuesday morning the low is forecasted to be around 32 (0 C).
