Yea I saw a headline about ‘country braces for blizzard”. And I was here in NC saying “wait, which country because I’m in the mountains and get snow regularly, but forecasts put us in the 70s this week”

Yeah, we hit 80 at my place in the Triangle yesterday. It’ll be hotter today. Fucking nuts.

In SoCal it was hitting around 80F just a week or two ago

Yeah, it's been swinging between ~40'F and ~80'F. What's crazy to me is we'll probably look back on this fondly at some point, as more extreme weather fluctuations take hold (as I understand it).

Just found out in another thread that today’s high is 70 in Philadelphia and 47 in NYC (probably 50 miles between them longitudinally, if that).

It's going to be 55 in St. Louis. It was nearly 70 yesterday.

Perhaps not as warm as Birmingham, but that's easily 30 degrees warmer than it should be this time of year. I'm not complaining at all, but it's just weird for me to see headlines like "Winter weather stretching across the country from Los Angeles to Boston!" and I'm outside yesterday in short sleeves and no jacket like it's April.

Hell, the forecast for the next week looks pretty pleasant. Not as warm as yesterday, but it should be a lot worse in February.

I'm in Phoenix. Its currently 54. The high for today is 56. It's going to be a high of 65 tomorrow, followed by 71, and then back in the 50s and 60s.

Well Alabama and California are both in the same hemisphere. Australia is not. While yes the US has drastic temp changes across the country but not as extreme. It's record breaking if it hits the expected temp tomorrow.
