Herring choker? Is that anything like a puddle jumper? In my youth, when I began to work for a living one of the workers called me a puddle jumper, and I didn't know what they meant.

CC (Carol for those who remember) awoke to a layer of snowy ice on her car this AM in SC. SC! BRRRRRRRRR! Earliest snow in SC ever, I believe.

Our weather is up down hellwest and crooked as is the norm in fall. The Yanks send us warm air (mostly rains) from the south. It stalls when it hits the Atlantic just north of PEI. This hot air rises and sucks in cold air from the north and west of us. This repeats in ever dwindle temperatures until the Yanks stop sending us warm air and then we endure a never boring winter, at best. So, as a Herring Choker, I blame the Yanks for all this mayhem. Screw Free Trade. I want a Free Weather Agreement. I sall write a Goddamn letter to that effect to my MP forthwith with forthwit.

First snow of the season in RI today, at least in my part, but I think it was the first snow anywhere in this state. And in my part it was the fat, wet stuff. I heard there were some cars skidding on the roads, but the time I left this morning at 9 AM the roads I drove on were wet but not slippery.

Snow at this time of year is early, although we have sometimes had snow even earlier.

The high today was at 8 o'clock tonight: 35F! Says it "feels like 26". This morning it was 21. A bit cloudy tonight but sunny today.

If our ground is frozen at all, it isn't frozen deep yet. Leaves and puddles are sparkling and crisp though.

We often have a White Hallowe'en but not this year. I hope we get lots of snow but not so much ice.

The heat should continue tomorrow but break on Monday. I'm waiting to hear a forecast for the days of the Mystic Sea Music Festival. I'll be there no matter what, but I want to know what to pack.

On the western shores of the Caribbean, though one may read much of the night, the question of whether to go south does not arise at this time of year, there being no winter here. All here are presently enjoying typical March weather - lots of bright and warm sunlight, strong breezes and very little rain. If only I could share this with some of the less fortunate.

April may be the cruelest month, but March bites, too, in the higher regions of New Hampshire. Just 10 miles away in the valley, green shoots are poking up and crocuses are preparing to make their appearance. Here in the hills we still have over a foot of snow on the ground, ice everywhere, and the forecast for the week promises no thaw in sight. Forget February, I dream of heading South for the months of March and April. Now is when I'm sick of winter!

In coastal SOuthern Caqlifornia the sea-mist rises early in the morning and crawls down the streets, hangs from trees and flowers, and makes everything look ghostly and intimate like a lover's sleeping breath. The trees look like explosions of fog and the streets only crawl if there is any traffic at all.

By nine AM, the mists have been banished by the sturdy persuasions of a rising sun, the skies clear away to a pristine blue dotted with white fluff, and the city bustles to life. The temperature climbs from 55 degrees F at sunrise to 75 degrees in short order, over-coats and sweaters are tossed into the back seats of cars, dogs come out to romp and mark their turf on the grassy fields and canyon paths, and the world is blessed with a golden, benevolent warmth that lasts until sundown.

Then the mists start to move in again, wisping through the dark streets and across the busy highways as people head for home after a day of busy productive work, one assumes. No guarantees, of course. The weather does not care whether you've been productive or not.

The clouds roll in, mist again covers the valleys, and night falls in peace on a comfortable land. Occasionally Orion, a few planets, and the inconstant moon peer through the mist to reassure the world that space has not gone awry. Only the foolish and naive are reassured, but the gesture is always appreciated.

Here in Juneau in southeastern Alaska, after a month or so of springlike weather, we are under a winter storm advisory for snow and blowing snow. It was to have arrived at 4:00 this morning and to last until 7:00 tonight- well, it *is* snowing but grass is still poking through so not much has accumulated.

On the other hand, the snow is fine and persistent. We'll see what happens by tonight.

Nice.

It's currently (1.30pm) 25 deg C with a light breeze blowing from the south west. Other parts of Oz are still having unseasonably hot and humid weather but here in the north west of New South Wales summer is winding down. Trees are beginning to show signs of the coming autumn with fading colours, and the vine - could be an ornamental grape - covering a corner of the fence round a local football ground is already red and bronze! Nights are much cooler than just a few weeks ago so sleeping is easier.

10 mins ago it was 23.1C with 68% humidity in my neck of th woods - almost 1am on Monday morning.

Monday forecast is it will fall 3 degrees overnight & get up to 27. The rest of the week will be around 28 most day, which of course means high humidity.

We have some nasty hot weather heading our way from the south & south west of the country.

The part of RI where I live dodged the bullet, too. We had mostly rain with only a thin coating of wet snow Friday morning. Some other parts of the state got more, but I think most areas were in the 3-inch zone with a few parts getting slightly more. If it had all been snow, we would have been in much worse shape. And while there were strong winds, I haven't heard anything about power outages. I guess from Hurricane Sandy until now, the damage to power lines had already been done. The trees had already fallen and the lines had already been repaired.

There is blossom on the trees, the spring bulbs are all in flower, the air is mild - and it is so misty you can't see the end of the street and it is pouring down with rain.

I HATE HUMIDITY! The little fan is blowing air on me & I feel a bit cooler, but as soon as I turn it off to go to bed ...

at least I have the bigger fan on my bedside table ...

We have 71% humidity at the moment here near Sydney harbour (did I say I hate humidity???) but the poor buggers in Sydney's west & south west are several degrees cooler but have 80-96% humidity - lucky me!

forecast is for 19 Celcius overnight rising to 26 in the day for the rest of Friday.
