Actually, local wits like to say we either have two seasons (Winter and Road Construction) or four seasons (Winter, June, July and August).
We've just happened to have had a really strange transition out of winter this year. Back and forth from high's in the 70's and 80's F, to snow and high's in the 30's F, all in the same week (sometimes several times that week). Now we're getting thunderstorms and torrential rain. The temps are still running ten to twenty degrees F below normal for this time of year. Without wanting to start a pseudo-political $#!+storm, I think the instability and wild swings are indicative of the kinds of weather changes we've been warned about by the climate scientists. And the HUGE weather systems making their way across the country of late are on a much larger scale than what we've seen in the past (we had severe weather the same day from the same system that slammed Oklahoma, 800 miles away). Hopefully, after the long wait to get back in the water, we'll have a summer worthy of the name this year. I hope that for all of my pals on the list, as well. -- Fred Fred Street -- Minneapolis S/V Oceanis (1979 C&C Landfall 38) -- on the hard in Bayfield, WI :^( On May 21, 2013, at 2:20 PM, "Della Barba, Joe" <[email protected]> wrote: > Must be one of those two season places: > Winter and August. > > > Joe Della Barba > > From: CnC-List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Joel > Aronson > Sent: Tuesday, May 21, 2013 3:10 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: Stus-List Launch! > > Congrats!
