We're experiencing a string of 80+ degree days. All in all, I think it has been a much warmer Spring than usual.

We had one of the mildest Winters I've ever experienced AND a tornado in February so things are just crazy, weather wise.

This has been a pattern by NY & NJ foa awhile now. Cool waters April, May, June into July. This is all comimg from Greenland. Watch out this is a temporary phase. Ice takes huge amounts of energy to melt, much less to go warmer.

But I'm betting June, July, August will be brutal if outdoors.

A bit south of SC.
