May 22, 2002!!!!?????

 

Supposed to be 82

 

Is snow really that unusual for Calgary in May?? You folks are way the heck north of me, and I'm in Wisconsin!!

Watkins Glen Int'l Raceway
Driving school closed for the morning because of snow

 

snow is normal between November and march, clearing in early april. Snow in May is not normal

 

We're only about 250 miles north of the border. It seems every once in a while (7-10 years, though it seems more often lately), we get a "dump" in May, June, or even July that stays on the ground for a day or so. As I write this, the snow has long melted off the sidewalks and streets. Still lots of snow on lawns and in yards.

 

(shakes fist at the sky) bloody weather... and I have to walk to work tonight

 

I heard you guys got 2 feet the other day. My girfriends cousin lives in Calgary and he was visiting us with a friend from Banff. I couldn't stop when he told me that two feet of snow fell on the gound recently.

Sorry. Right now it is a brisk 66 where I am. Brrrrrrrrr.

But I'm heading to Miami this weekend, there it will be 85

 

Shoulda been in Central Cali yesterday! Tornado's! Rain! Snow! It's all gone now, so it's all good.
