We don't have any weather here today. The weatherman got sick. He couldn't do his report. There's nothing but a big, blank, indeterminate nothing out there right now. No rain, no sun, no clouds, no snow, no nothing. It's spooky.

Ebbie, what you saw were probably Choronomids. The look quite similar to mosquitoes when they hatch, but they don't bite. Some years here they even show up in January in large numbers amongst the salal.

My sympathies gnu, we're having a less extreme form of that kind of weather on this coast too. A sunny 26C yesterday and then the wind came up and blew all that lovely weather away. Its cloudy again and a low of 6 is predicted for tonight.

We keep getting tantalized with a few warm sunny days and then it gets chilly again....warm spring weather arrived really late this year. We had salmon berry still blooming last week, when some years its finished blooming in late February and early March.

Hello,

The weather here was delightful,
We've just had our dose of sun,
But true to the tradition
The rain has now begun!

We had a glorious April.
The weather felt like June.
But now it won't stop raining.
It's like a darn monsoon!

Best wishes,

Peter

Most of last week, it was close to 30C and sunny here in Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada. Tonight.......

Snow at times heavy becoming mixed with periods of ice pellets mixed with rain overnight. Snow and ice pellet amount 10 to 15 cm. Wind becoming northeast 30 km/h late this evening. Low zero.

Some fun in The Maritimes, eh?

Speaking of mosquitoes, Joe, in the Oregon mountains I've seen what appeared to be mosquitoes IN the snow. I don't know what else they could have been.

Anyway, the Weather Service is forecasting a blizzard, of all things, for Juneau today beginning around noon. It's just past 10:00 right now and fine snow is flinging about. They tell us that we're expecting 8 to 14 inches accumulation, with winds up to 65 mph.

We'll see. By the way, it is COLD.

Well, our latest snow advisory has been cancelled. We got only about 4 inches this latest go 'round. Temperature is 17F and we expect a low of 12 tonight. We're supposed to be heading into single digit lows in the next few days.

I haven't heard lately how much snow we've had this winter but it's way above normal for us.

For some reason I expect Spring to arrive with a crash. And maybe a warm (for us) summer. Last summer was so cool and wet that no one was happy.

Been a great winter so far, eh, sIx? Here in Moncton, it has been an old fasioned no-snow winter. That is, colder than a you know! We might have had about a metre or so all together. Only about a half metre on the ground now. Temps have been -15 to -25 overnight, usually around -15 daytime. WC (windchill) -20 to -35 most of the time. EXCELLENT winter so far!

Snow!

That's our weather today here in Colfax, California, at an elevation of 2,300 feet in the Sierra Nevada Foothills. This is the first time we've had snow this season, so it was wonderful to see. We had no precipitation at all in January, so it's going to take some heavy weather to get us up to our 40-inch annual average rainfall and give us some decent spring wildflowers.
We have lots of daffodils in the snow, though. Julian of Norwich would be proud of us - camellias and almond blossoms, too.

In Juneau it's snowing again. The tricky part for walking is the fluffy stuff on top of the previous packed snow and ice.

It's supposed to be warming up. A high of 25F forecast today- tomorrow in the mid30s.

Same as Jennie G - just had a shower to cool down, and I'm sitting in front of a fan. We've had hotter temperatures than this - it's the humidity that makes it really hard to take.

I think it's about to come to an end soon though. The Weather Bureau has posted a severe thunderstorm warning, I can see something on the radar moving towards us from the west, and it's starting to cloud over. I think I might have just heard my first bit of thunder too.

Better go and bring the washing in!

Vancouver got its first full day of sun in 72 days. Last full sunny day was Hallowe'en. I don't think we went quite that long here on the Island, but possibly we set a record too. Its a bit nippy out tonight, about 24 F and supposed to dip a bit more later on, but the stars are beautiful.

Sure glad the power's on for a change and the only pain in the ass for the next few days will be lugging water for the pony, because his water line is frozen. I'm taking a break from hauling wood for the woodstove, putting my feet up tonight and being thankful for small pleasures, like electric heat and functional toilets.

Hot.

Here in my part of Sydney (at 3.35pm) it is somewhere in the low-mid 30sC, high humidity, very unpleasant. Possible thunderstorms promised for later in the day. That will be OK, so long as lightning strikes don't start any more bushfires.

The heat turns my brain to mush and I am not good for anything! Can you please send a bit of cold my way?

As of now (about 5:30 p.m. Seattle time), the temperature is 33^o F. (barely 1^o C.). It snowed a bit last night, starting around evening commute time. Television showed long lines of slowly-moving or non-moving autos on freeways and arterials under snow flurries.

Right now, evening commute time is under way, but I haven't turned the evening news on yet. Earlier news predicted that the currently wet roadways could turn icy if the temperature dropped a degree or two, which it is wont to do. Great weather for body and fender shops.

Barbara and I are hunkered down and we might watch a movie tonight (we subscribe to NetFlix. Just got "Casablanca"—seen it a dozen times or more, but it's a classic, of course—and "Rob Roy" with Liam Neeson. Saw that too, but I want to see it again).

Stay warm.

Nippy, but no wind this morning.

A nice thing about all the snow we've gotten in Juneau is that our darkest part of the winter has been much brighter because of it.

Incidentally our days are already perceptibly longer. Sunset today is at 3:34 but I noticed the other day that because of the snow it still wasn't dark at 4 o'clock.

There is a large weather pattern right now over the western US. It is both windy and cold. Today it should hit Colorado and may bring snow as well as very cold temperatures. This front is large and should be felt from OK throught the Great Lakes for about the next entire week, bringing sub-zero cold, strong winds and icy roads.
