Chicago made it 4 in row yesterday. The high of 70 beat the old record of 64 from 1930. It's going to seem like a shock when temperatures get back to normal highs in the upper 30's forecast for the weekend.

68 and sunny tomorrow sounds alright by me.  Might have to make this a three-day work week (Happy late President's Day!  LOL).

Upper 60s today and possibly even 70 tomorrow here in the Milwaukee area. And then the temp drops and we get a dusting of snow under one inch late Friday night for the first time in a month.

Chicago's 4 day streak of record highs was broken yesterday. It was mostly cloudy, and there was a little bit of rain, and that held the high to 66. That would have been good enough for a record on the previous days, but on 2/21/1930 it reached 67. Still, 66 is almost 30 degrees warmer tan the normal high of 37.

I'm going up to CPAC tonight, and I remember getting caught in a snowstorm in the mountains when I went in 2015 and it still snowing in DC (I am flying this year anyway).  Even last year, I remember waiting outside in the cold to get into some events (and it was in March).  This year, on the other hand, it is going to be 76 degrees!

Chicago is back to record highs today after a one day, one degree lapse. It's only a tie of the 1922 record of 68, but it's great to enjoy this in Feb.

Unusually warm here as well.  Records were set on February 7 and February 17.  This graphic is from the Millersville University department of meteorology:

No, as I live in Hong Kong whose climate is comparable to Southern FL. Snow is so scarce that it has not happened for 120 years.

I swear to God in five years we'll have the same climate as Georgia and the denialists will be saying it's because we had el Niño six years ago.

What was that about consecutive record highs earlier this week? It's now 32 and the light rain/drizzle is starting to change over to snow.

It's supposed to go down into the forties/low fifties over the weekend here and not go up again for the foreseeable future. Thank God.

January has been the 2nd coldest January since 1980 around here (3°C colder than normal).

But February is already back to 3°C warmer than average ...

The winter so far has been ca. 1°C warmer than the average winter since 1960.

We got a big dump of snow in early January, but nothing since then ... and in general, precipitation levels are only 60% of normal winters since 1960.

In the past few days, we had some days in Salzburg with 22°C (72°F), which is unusual for this time.

Amazing transformation here as well.  It is now about 22 degrees F colder than it was four hours ago.  We had gone to the public library to watch a storyteller (amateur archeologist) tell us about how people in this region lived ten thousand years ago.  It was very interesting, and my son got to try on a homemade buckskin coat, a rabbit pelt jacket, and a wood ear fire back pack.  Then the speaker announced a tornado watch.  Many rushed out of John Morgan room B to to the front windows to check it out.  While we never witnessed a tornado, we did cut short our library visit and head to the supermarket because we wanted to get home before the promised "golf ball sized hail" hit us.  The hail never materialized.  Nor did the tornado.  But it was beautiful and sunny and 69 when we went to the library.   By the time we got home it was dark and grey and cold and rainy and windy.  It rained hard and fast for about ten minutes and then it was over, but it is now much colder.  At the moment it is 47 degrees.  The cold front that hit you finally hit us, I suppose.  The high tomorrow is predicted to be 45, probably normal for this time of year.  I was enjoying the global climate change.  While it lasted.

Northwern Wisconsin got quite a bit, mid part of the state got about 4. In the Milwaukee area we got .7 inches if that.

It's even only in the mid-50s (but sunny) right now in Nashville, after being in the 80s Friday afternoon.  Up at CPAC- which saw snow the last two years- we were eating dinner outside!

Moved here to Oakland from Chicago and El Nino has hit the midwest. However, I won't have to experience a snowy winter ever again.

It's humid, mild (59F), storms are blowing up and we're in a tornado watch in Chicagoland.  Snow tomorrow.

It snowed 6-7 inches overnight.

This was only the 2nd "major" snowfall so far this year after early-January, which dumped some 2 feet - but which has already melted away almost completely until yesterday.

Tuesday was warm and ended with tornadic thunderstorms. This morning there's a coating of snow on the ground, the first real coating since Christmas. It's supposed to be up in th 60's again by the start of next week. This seems more like early spring than late winter. In any case I'd say March came in like a lion.
