    Wacky weather

    What's going on here? It's Phoenix, meaning we have 100 days of 100 degrees starting May 15th. . . . Usually . . . But right now it's 54 degrees and POURING!! We haven't had any rain in Phx in May in 7 years!

    Anybody else having wacky weather in their region?

    It seems a lot cooler than usual in Indiana, but I'm not complaining. I know that this too will change.

    Very cool here in Western Massachusetts (40s and 50s) - I saw a couple of kids yesterday wearing winter coats and hats!

    That IS weird! I grew up in Yuma, and we didn't have any rain at all for 7 years (ok- it felt like that, but rain in May is quite strange).
    Hmmmm.... that's very, very wacky.

    We've had a much more active tornado season than normal so far. We even had to get in our shelter once already a few weeks ago. That was early. It's just hot, humid, and there's a threat for severe thunderstorms almost daily. You know, the usual spring/summer in tornado alley.

    Northern Arizona reporting - Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let It Snow - yep, it's snowing to beat all out there right now - has been snowing much of the night although there is little accumulation.

    IT's cold 33 degrees burrrrr - Tuesday night I was outside playing tennis till 8:30 - just like a summer's night - what a change!

    It's been quite cool up here in the PNW. I'll grant you at this time of the year I don't really expect it to be hot, but I haven't even switched over from using flannel sheets yet...

    Central AZ reporting in. Wacky as well. Mon and Tues we were soaking in the pool all day, now it is in the 40's and raining. Of course this would have to happen on our first 3 day tour in the White Mtns. We had to bust out the winter gear again.

    Hot and muggy here in south Looziana, with about a 20% chance of thunderstorms. Pretty normal summer forecast for us.
