More cold April and May

We've had the coldest April in history and now we'll have the coldest May.  The cold Arctic air that brought back the Ozone Hole is deciding it will break up over us.


All the Pacific plume energy is bouncing off the cold and slooping down to us from the Yukon.  This pattern looks solid and is defending against a Pacific plume trying to come straight in.

WAIT!  I just went for the morning dog walk at a tropical 5 C, with sun and no wind.  Paradise!  And we will have 5 deg mornings for the next month.  We are so lucky!  So I want to change the theme of the article to WARMTH.  Time to plant the peas, broccoli, and brussels.  Tomatoes have to be in a greenhouse.


The UK is not as lucky as us.  Lots of horrible rain, as their plumes shove all the nice clear air over to us.

ps.  Sunday.  The Westerlies have broken through, and we'll be notching up a few degrees.
