Fall doesn't start until Thursday! And it's already snowing in north central Montana!
I guess the warming part of the natural climate cycle is definitely over.

Sane rants on an insane world. Read at your own risk. Don't blame me if your head explodes.
Montana has some of the strangest weather which can literally change overnight. I was stationed in there for four years and loved it. In August 1992, on a Friday, my son's went swimming in the outdoor base pool as it was in the upper 80's outside. By Saturday night, it had cooled down quite a bit out. When we woke up Sunday morning, there was almost 8 inches of snow on the ground...talk about a shock.
ReplyDeleteIn January 1996, we went two weeks straight where the temperature never got above 0 degrees. We had daily highs of -15. On the day it broke, at 8am it was -40 and by 4:30 in the afternoon, it hit the high for the day of 45 degrees. The temperature literally rose 85 degrees in 8 hours. Boy, I love Montana.
I live at 6000 feet----I can see the
ReplyDeleteHIGH ROCKY MT high PEAKS, and there has been snow on them several times already.
In January of 2005, while I was in Northern Kansas getting my MA, we had two weeks straight of highs in the single digits. It didn't hit the twenties for more than a month, and took another two weeks after that to make it up to thirty degrees. I HATE weather like that, especially when I have to be out in it!
ReplyDeleteI used to like the cold but as I get older, I find that I don't like it as much.
