68 degrees today in snowy PA!
I've seen several posts about weather so I guess many of us are having crazy weather.
Just a few days ago it was 8° with the wind chill and the icy wind was blowing the snow up like dry dust. Today?
68° outside!! What gives??

We have had crazy weather in Northern IL too! We went from about 12 inches of snow on the ground and temps in the teens, to a huge heat wave! The snow melted over night in one night and it has been in the 60's here too! I think we topped out at 65 yesterday!
I think it was the first time I have ever ridden my bike outdoors in January!

Crazy here in MA too!
It was warm over the weekend, even warmer today. "They" say it will melt the ice we still have all over the place. "I" say it will melt today and we will wake up to a blizzard tomorrow... isn't that the way it usually is?
63 today and then sliding down so that Monday's high will be 27 and snowing...

I'm in PA too. Wore a short sleeve shirt to work - and no jacket
I love this because it saves me money on heating oil.

Well, our weather is what it always is for January... It's a balmy 12 degrees this fine morning...tonights lows are supposed to be 5 above to 5 below...same ol', same ol'. But, that's good...the dog sled races start in about 6 weeks...and the cold temps and added snow (got some yesterday) make it much nicer.

Think i heard a Burmuda high is responsible for the warmer temps. Came home from walking to the Po and saw a poor confused bat flitting around in the sunshine on this 60º day.
