April 26.
Happy Anniversary. Have a snow storm!
Yup. Snow.
Who hires these people who "predict" the weather? Whatever oracle they're consulting needs a shot of juju. They are currently claiming: "The snow is ending, but chilly weather will remain. The weather service says the highs in the Twin Cities will only be in the mid 40s..."
I don't know which Twin Cities they live in. In mine, I'm staring out the window at an awful lot of snow in the air.
Though, admittedly, it won't do much here other than make the grass white. The few days of 65, 72, and 75ºF weather have warmed up the concrete enough to melt it all.
But .... "In Pelican Rapids today, they've got 18 inches of snow on the ground and, no doubt, dozens of suicidal pelicans about town."
And people wonder why Delta wants to keep their HQ in Atlanta (where its in the 70s).

When I moved here, I expected the summers to be comfortable, 75-85, because the winters were so arctic. What a shock. First, the tornado warnings. Second, the tropical humidity (in Minnesota?) that's like the South Pacific. And then the last few years, probably since 2001 or 2002 when it's hit 90 degrees in April, and triple-digit temperatures with 70+ degree dewpoints in July. Yuck. Thank god for AC. I do not enjoy tropical hot weather at all. If I did, I would have moved to the Deep South.
But then, it's Minnesota. In the winter, our weather is dominated by Canada. In the summer, air from the Gulf of Mexico surges up to us. All because of those pesky jet streams overhead (or not).
And if you don't like it, wait 20 minutes. It'll probably change..... (laughing)
