Government Camp is a small ski town located at about 4000' elevation in the northern Oregon Cascades, about an hour east of Portland. Decided to average out the number of below 0F days per year by decade to determine how much our climate has herpderpified. 1950s: 1.33 1960s: 1.3 1970s: 2.2 1980s: 1.4 1990s: 1.2 wait for it 2000s: 0.3 2010s: 0.2 What the hell happened?

Government Camp has a population of 250ish and is in the middle of the Cascades. There is zero UHI there, no airport, nothing. I think the Hadley Cell expansion in 1998 has something to do with it. Massive drop off occurred 1999 and afterward. |

I'm not sure if this was posted before or not, but here's a map of the coldest observed temperatures during the 1985 cold snap.  |

Yeah this winter has been boring. We seem to have had a lot more consistently cool spells about 4c below average (4c highs, freezing nights) but with only one pretty average snow event last weekend to show for it. Might as well have just been a mild winter. Ah well 4 weeks left, hopefully failbury is drier and milder

This La Niña monsoon season in Jakarta has been very cloudy so far... and with barely above average rain.
56.2 hours over the 1-30 January period in Jakarta Soekarno-Hatta, and today 31st has been mostly cloudy/rainy...
347.2mm month to date (as of 4pm today) there, barely above average

Defaulted to ball-less snowless cold after 2 day mild blips. Endless cold rain, 1 day with lying snow here. Naff. I don't know what coldies even bother to get excited about at all. Mild and sunny would be far better, because lowland England just doesn't get real snow anyway. I was spoiled for snow in Buxton (though summers sucked), so much less than 4" doesn't impress me anyway. Buxton is a complete outlier being high as it is. |

Watch it, soon AW will come and say that England gets lots of snow, look at the winters in the 60s.  |

Watch it, soon AW will come and say that England gets lots of snow, look at the winters in the 60s. It gets relatively higher frequencies of brief snow flurries/showers that don't stick, but lying snow is rare in lowland England, I'd say; we've had 9 days with snow falling this month vs. 1 or 2 lying. The winters are definitely milder now than it was back in the 50s-80's. |

Another month of winter OVER. Less than one month to go until meteorological spring.  |

These clowns just can't get it through their noggins that I don't giveafuq about "lying snow"—I care only about falling snow. As long as snowflakes fall from the sky…ummm, hellooo, it's fucking snow! |

I do not feel ready for spring at all this year, simply because of the complete lack of a winter. Hasn't felt cold here in the slightest.

supposed to be heavy snow in the southeast next week but I know it'll just fizzle out and turn into sleet

I'm not sure if this was posted before or not, but here's a map of the coldest observed temperatures during the 1985 cold snap. I’m pretty sure Miami actually reached 30F during this cold snap. |
