I'm in the UK, so I will talk about the weather...



A relevant quote:

Along about November I began to forget when it hadn't been raining and became as one with all the characters in all of the novels about rainy seasons, who rush around banging their heads against the walls, drinking water glasses of straight whisky and moaning, "The rain! The rain! My God, the rain!"

We have had such erratic weather. The particularly cold temperatures have not been historically unusual. However less discussed is the bizarre heatwave out west. My friend in southern California has been reporting upper 80s and low 90s over the past week. That is super unusual for this time of year.

We'll be getting 50s next week which is unusually warm but not outside the bounds of what we've had in recent years.

The weather has just been nuts this winter. We've had bitter cold and unseasonably warm temperatures, within days of each other.

I am very tired of rain. I need sunshine!

It's still cold where I am, spring cannot arrive fast enough!
