I haven't been looking at weather much this year since I work from home. I get up and get dressed in the morning; if I'm cold I put on a sweater, otherwise I don't. But it has generally felt milder than normal or so that is how it seems to me. Most of the weather news I have seen suggests that the mid-west and south US have been getting all the crappy weather. Curious ButterflyEffect and WanderingEng ; where are you located?
I'm in southern Wisconsin. I expect winter here to have highs in the mid-20s with a few rare days with temps hitting 35° when everyone rushes to get their cars washed. There should be just as many days if not more when highs are in the teens. We probably have the most snow on the ground since 2013-14, but with such high highs it feels like this winter could end any time or the next winter will be all rain.
Pacific Northwester, not too far away from goobster. Sea-level weather highs have been in the mid 40s to low 50s all season, they should be in the lower 40s to mid 50s. Mountain weather has been very boom or bust this year, all of which are to be expected with climate change, unfortunately.
Winter has been a crapshoot since I got here in '94. You either get none, one or two sessions of snow at sea level. "Two" has probably been three times in 25 years. Not denying the existence of global warming but saying the effects have been around for longer than most people care to admit. My entire time of splitting houses between LA and Seattle? Temperature extremes really haven't been that different.
