Winter maybe coming to an end here finally with the 70's in the forcast starting on Friday!
Even the Environment Canada meteorologist on CBC here in the morning ashcans his own forecasts. They're all optimistically warm, which he warns isn't going to be possible with all this snow on the ground. Next week, they say. Well, they've been saying that for many weeks.
We've had the coldest winter in 150 years.

Temperature wise, this was a very traditional winter. Granted, we're all complaining about it in CNY - we haven't had winters that hold on like this for 20 years or so.
Snow was a bit light this year, but that didn't stop the cold.

34°F May 1. Not digging this.
Winter is still putting up a fight. We're under a hard freeze watch and it's snowing. Not cool anymore.
This winter never lived!
Besides a healthy December, CA has been dry, dry, dry!
Send some wetness over here!
"GUSTY OFFSHORE WINDS AND EXTREMELY DRY AND WARM CONDITIONS WILL
BRING CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS TO INLAND LOCATIONS THROUGH
THE END OF THE WEEK. UNSEASONABLY HIGH AFTERNOON TEMPERATURES

Nah, when it's Late July and nighttime temps cool into the 50s, it makes the winters worth it!

We got hit again with a few inches yesterday and the previous night. Fortunately, the temperatures are such that it isn't going to stick around (long).

Good grief - It is 24C here *in Canada*. I was about to report this thread to the mods as offensive!

Really?
It's been a bit over 80F here for the past two afternoons.
I've driven home from work with the top down the past two days and am getting a starter tan.

Yep. There was light hail yesterday, too, if you'll believe that, on top of the three things you showed in those pictures.
