Average temp departure of -6F so far this month. Now THAT'S some old-school stuff. If only it would ever happen in the lowlands in winter with slightly more regularity.

Looks like we only hit 55 today. The earliest I can remember running the woodstove. Actually fired it up on Thursday night.

I like the sound of this from MPX: Beyond next weekend, there seems to be agreement among ensembles that highs in the 60s and 70s with lows in the 40s and 50s will become more and more common as the fall equinox approaches.

I was looking at the eruption of Anak Krakatau and it's eruption was violent. I remember watching the 1980 eruption of Mt. St. Helen's and it doesn't come close to Anak's eruption. It makes me wonder if it could be going into a very active stage

Very pretty
