seriously, the I'm so tough crap is getting really old. I'm miserable, deal with it! And I reserve the right to be miserable until its 70 degrees or a tornado watch.
actually today is not too bad, its an improvement. But I hear snow is in the forecast, again.

Minus the goshdarned wind. Feels like Albuquerque out there (minus the dust).

Completely normal for this time of year.  We had flurries in April last year, anyone remember that?

I know what is normal this time of year. The lack of nice days so far is the only thing that stands out. yes, I am aware it snows in the spring. I think we have established that.

Depends on your opinion of what a "nice day" is. I think its been lovely (minus last Friday) all month, but thats just me. We've had plenty of sun, slightly below average temps, gorgeous sunsets, etc, etc. Most people seem to think that if they cant wear shorts outside, then its not "nice" outside. Everyone has their own opinions on the weather, I just see it a different way and Im GRATEFUL that I do, or else Id be miserable like every other person around here.

Seriously...winter made the last hurrah. Now it is over. Any more snow probably will not stick. Which stinks because I wanted to get to Devils Head to snowboard one last time but oh well. Seriously though...it was 50 degrees with a nice wind. I was out playing lacrosse with some of my old high school buddies today and the breeze was perfect.

Its a bit windy for my tastes, but its still nice out. Theyre predicting flurries on Thursday and Friday though. No big deal. And you might want to check out Chestnut Mountain in Galena, they should still be laying down snow up there.

I remember that freak storm. Came out of nowhere. My friend at work said that he was freaked out about the weather outside. I looked out my window (looks south) and saw nothing but blue skies and sun. Hes like "no, its coming from the west, go look at it!" I stepped outside and my jaw dropped. The sky was black, with some green at the top. Not even a minute later the tornado sirens started wailing and we lost power right then and there. We went to the tornado shelter and all was fine. Our power came back on about 15 minutes later and we went back to work.

Yea, I was with my stupid friends trying to film the damn thing. My idiot friend ruined his cheap 300 dollar camera, and I lost my derby hat in the lake. Had to chalk that loss to the weather gods.
