I have had it with this weather!
7-Day Forecast for Latitude 40.86°N and Longitude 72.87°W
Its so depressing, just day after day of clouds. Its possible the whole summer could be like this, at least through June. Computer models show no end in sight to the stubburn blocking ocean ridge that keeps fronts from passing through like they normally do.
This Stalled Front Syndrome, is in my opinion, another sign of a changing climate. The Northeast (and Long Island along with it) are seeing less variation in temperatures. Winters are milder, and summers are milder, and there seems to be much less sunshine. These spells are becoming more frequent, and longer each time.
We were lucky last weekend to get the front far enough offshore for sunshine, but I dont think this weekend will be nice.
You might want to plan on a trip to the upper Great Lakes area, which has been fairly sunny and dry. I'd love to be in Chicago.

Well if thats the case, I'm moving. The weather is causing me a mental breakdown. I feel like I have SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder) from all the rain. I'm so tired...I need the sun!
