Is anyone else not getting winter or having a much warmer than usual season? This winter has been strangely warm. Usually around this time it is -20, but this year we're getting temperatures from anywhere between 4 degrees and 10 degrees. Last night it was raining, RAINING! We should have had a blizzard!!!!! There is obviously something messed up with the ocean currents lately.

We've had two snow storms this season, and with both the snow has melted within a couple of days.

EDIT:

Oh yeah; just for a bit of reference:

0 C = 32 F
4 C = 40 F
10 C = 50 F
20 C = 77 F

It just started returning to Normal here. It's in the lower 40's upper 30's. Last week we had temps almost at 70 degrees and yesterday there was a thunderstorm. I'm like, WTF???

We're having a mild winter, even for the area. Last year was the warmest year on record (for the Earth, not any particular area).

We're getting plenty of snow and rain. For a time, we had snow followed by 70 degree weather, but that has seemed to pass.

Last year may have been a very warm year, but not in Canada, there were days last year so cold that they had to close down schools, around this time. The temperature is A LOT higher now than it was this time last year. The ground actually froze a bit last night at about 2:00 AM or so, but that's the coldest I think it's been in a while. I mean, seriously! This is Canada, we're supposed to live in igloos!

I am just a bit upset that the snowboard season is fairly non-existent this year.

Yeah, it's been strangely warm around here. Today is pretty cold, but last night it was warm even around midnight.

It's global warming!!! AAAAAAAHHHHH! ;)
