Will this winter ever end?

I don't know about anyone else, but I'm getting REALLY tired of this "Spring"

What, you didn't enjoy the hail and 20 degree drop in temps we just had half an hour ago?!

I'm ready for some heat and sun too. It seems like forever since we've had a stretch of warm sunny weather. The lake is still only 44 degrees so even winds out of the south are a bit cool coming off the bay. It's nice hearing boats again.

I took a ride on the bike from Laconia to Bristol and it was pretty chilly.

Believe it or not, the last 4 weeks have been at or above average temperature. We were also at or below average rainfall.

I am getting really tired of it too, Merrymeeting! WE had our first boat ride today between showers and I had on a sweatshirt, fleece and a windbreaker lined with a sweatshirt material. It was ok, but not what I was hoping for. Of course it started to sprinkle about 5 minutes after we got out there so it was a very short ride, but it was a ride. I love the feeling of being out on the boat!!

They weren't last week, were they? I believe they were below normal.

Regardless of whether they were or not, above average or not, it's more than just temperature. When was the last time we had more than 1 day in a row with full sunshine and blue skies? Without a lot of wind? Or ideally all 3 cooperating for a beautiful NE day...more than 1 day in a row?

I just want to work in the yard for more than a four hour stretch and be comfortable.

That is so true, Merry. If the wind isn't blowing and it is sunny it feels so much warmer. Temps don't really matter and we have certainly had a lot of grey skies and wind.

Here's to June 1st, and frost on the car windshield here in Waterville Valley, about 35-miles from Lake Winnipesaukee....seems a little unusual....to find enough frost on the windshield to need to get out the winter ice scraper....that polar vortex is back or something?
