Weather around the globe!

Here in Munich we've had rather unseasonable SPRING weather all week. Today was the warmest at 19C (we usually get -5 to +5 at this time of year during the day). :eek: Many people were walking around with their T-shirts on. Unbelievable.

Tomorrow's our last Spring day though, back to 1C and snow by next Monday.

So what's happening with the weather where YOU are? Anything unseasonably freakish going on?

***tabacco*** · 02-05-2004, 11:54 AM

Not anymore. It's pretty sunny here. The past few days, though, we were getting alternating days of pouring rain and warm sun. Very weird.

Moosferatu · 02-05-2004, 11:59 AM

Yeah, it was around 20C here today too. I'm loving it. The great thing is that we are getting the Spring temperatures without the wind. For some reason it is always extremely windy in Budapest in the Spring.

Wajus · 02-05-2004, 12:08 PM

It was 16C in Wroclaw, Poland today which is more than unusual. Unfortunately the chilly and strong wind destroyed my streetball afternoon today.

Intrepid Homoludens · 02-05-2004, 12:13 PM

More snow due here in Chicago. [shrug]

amishler · 02-05-2004, 12:23 PM

Here in Seattle, it's been--wait for it--overcast and rainy for the past couple weeks. But it's not terribly cold. It's mostly been in the mid-40s to lower 50s (Fahrenheit; you can do the math if you want). This is the time of year when Seattle earns its reputation for dismal rainy weather. Last summer was gloriously warm and sunny, and I look forward to that weather returning.

Tanukitsune · 02-05-2004, 12:23 PM

Its like summer here in Spain, or at least a very hot spring...
So I guess its T-shirt time here too... 8-)

Pappapisshu · 02-05-2004, 12:31 PM

It's been about 5-6 degrees Celsius over here, which is warm compared to the -10 we've been having for the last couple of weeks. The snow's melting away. Of course it's only a matter of time before it starts to snow again...

nordic_guy · 02-05-2004, 12:36 PM

-3 degrees Celsius up here. Not that bad. When it goes down to -20, -30 degrees, that's bad.
Snow, of course.

Kolzig · 02-05-2004, 01:04 PM

It's -5C here now, there's lot's of ice here now, and some snow of course.

SamandMax · 02-05-2004, 02:07 PM

Last week, it was -51 celsius. It was the coldest I've ever seen it, school was cancelled for two days in a row.

Swordmaster · 02-05-2004, 02:30 PM

In Helsinki, last weekend saw the fiercest blizzard in recent memory: in one night, it snowed more than half a meter. The Finnish Meteorological Institute said this happens once every ten to twenty years. Now, less than a week later, most of it has melted away and it was raining earlier today.

Ditto. 8-)

Southern California... pretty mild weather so far. Though I used to live in a much, much warmer place so feels pretty chilly for me. Lately its been about 20 degrees.

remixor · 02-05-2004, 07:47 PM

I'm up in Northern California for school (oh, how I miss SoCal) and the weather's been pretty nice lately. A bit chilly, but nothing in the order of some of the temperatures described in this thread.

D.C. · 02-05-2004, 08:09 PM

We're in the middle of summer here in Australia. The average is around 30C in Brisbane... it's not too bad but on the especially hot days it's definately not a dry heat... it's more of a fucking hot sweating horrible heat. Brisbane has had some storms lately that have cooled the temperature down... not too bad at all.

nordic_guy · 02-05-2004, 11:06 PM

The temperature just sank to -27 degrees celsius.

We're a long way from -51, though.

Did you know that -40 degrees C is the same as -40 degrees F!

DomStLeger · 02-06-2004, 07:06 AM

We had 17 degrees celsius in manchester two days ago, which is apparently a new local record high for us. Felt cold to me though.

I got back into St Andrews today and it's apparently 9 outside but it feels freezing, it's incredibly windy. i can literally see the clouds zooming across the sky at the moment.

Hey! Another Washingtonian! Do you live in Seattle, amisher, or just near it? I'm from Mukilteo myself but it's much easier for the sake of simplicity to say Seattle
