Similar thing is happening where I live too. Living on the Great Lakes, we’re usually being dumped on with -20 to -40 degree temps. Right now, we’re barely below freezing and there’s no snow on the ground. The Lake is struggling to freeze and we’re at that time of year where it should be close to 100 percent ice cover by now.
We have a lot of events this time of year that are dependent on ice (Ice fishing tournaments, ice races, marathons where you hike across the frozen bay), and I think all of them have been canceled. It’s crazy, I’ve never seen anything like it
I hope they keep that in mind during the summer. I don’t know about where you live, but I’m in Portland, Oregon. I remember a decade ago people freaked out when it got above 90°F. Now we usually have at least 1-2 days where it reaches 110-115°. And we don’t have AC, because historically it was never needed.
Yet anyone I speak to is thrilled to not have winter weather to deal with. I have to bite my tongue to stop ranting about how it’s not good.

Yeah I’m in southeast Michigan, and I’m missing wintertime. I really don’t like summer, so I’m screwed.

@HipHoboHarold @bloopernova It’s been nearly 2 years since we’ve had any meaningful snow accumulation in Pittsburgh.
