El nino temperatures are showing up

Post by yuccaman »

I looked at my forecast and its saying 16C near christmas on the 14 day trend. I wished I had a needle palm and it would survive our winter. Its to late now. The forecast is all above zero. Anyone else seeing a warm up on forecasts. Take a look at mine below.

Nice today

I just came in for a quick break. Nice and sunny, 12c (54f) and dead calm. Feels milder than it is but I'm in shorts and a T shirt anyway. A far cry from the winter storm of late November here in the PNW. It'd be nice to have a mild finish to the season. Shortest daylight hours in the northern hemishpere is in 2 weeks, then the daylight hours will increase.

Cheers. Barrie.

It has been up to 6 C during the day time and very sunny. The snow is disappearing quickly and is only up to my knees. I'm having fun putting up xmas lights.
