I don't know what's happening in the rest of the world but something unusual is going on over here in England. After the warmest January since records began, we are now having the warmest and driest April.

Not that I'm complaining, mind, as I already have a suntan!

really cold for April here. This week, it's looking up. high 60s - mid 70s. I'm avoiding the whole 'tanning' thing as I would rather be pale and continue to NOT have wrinkles. Although, it is tempting.

my spring break in Cincinnati the first week of April. Irrational, I know, but it was a week of sharks, Skyline, Graeter's and the Reds. My daughter is only 5, but she knows what she likes.

If only the temperature had risen above 40 degrees Farenheit.

to stay. That's my home town. My family is there and I go there whenever I can.

If you get a chance to go back, go to Dee Felice Cafe in Covington, KY. Awesome cajun food and they usually have live music.

As far as chili goes, I'd take Dixie Chili over Skyline any time. :)

That has to be the look with the black gear and the red lippy.

We've got up to low 70s which, for us, is as good as it gets and it's been that way since Easter although it's supposed to be raining tomorrow and then back up to 70s by Sunday. Average daytime temperatures for mid-April should be more along the lines of low 60s at best. This is England, after all...

does help with my whole 'undead' look. :)

My family is so pale, we're nearly transparent. I'm the lucky one, I can at least GET a tan with some work. My sisters and my mother just burn.

due to several nights in a row of sub-freezing temps in April. My wisteria and lilac blossoms and buds just flat out froze just as things were smelling luscious!

On a positive note, perhaps there will be fewer ticks, fleas, japanese beetles, and mosquitos!

Strange weather for sure.

edit - qualify a statement

Now there won't be any of those cracks about England, rain, fog, and people droping dead when the temps hit the high 60s.

Here, we're having a cold spell...only going to be in the high 70s tonight. I'll have to get the thermal blanket out or we'll freeze (LMFAO) GLOAT OVER

When you're sitting around in the high 90s waiting for the next hurricane, we'll probably have snow. Last year, Summer finished at the end of July and August was crap.

We're OK for the moment. Temperature at the weekend is projected to be 75F in London which is about perfect for us Northern sorts. Anything hotter and we start to complain.

:D

I like it here. I'm originally from Canada where there's 8 months of winter, and 4 months of bad snowmobiling. I prefer golf. As for hurricanes, we'll see....the last one was a bust...but I'd rather have them than the tornados in West Texas.

another fine wallpaper, keep snapping pix we love them.
Glad to hear you weather is nice, Atlanta is also starting to feel summery.

The Reds are home the whole week of my daughter's birthday, and we have a yearly pass to the aquarium.

We've only ever been to Skyline, so it's probably time to branch out.

Lie a lot.

Last Sunday, after being specifically told that it would not rain until after 3p, we went for a walk. The heavens opened up for the entire last mile, thus insuring that we were soaked through by the time we got home. When we got home, it was not yet 3p.

Weather people lie like rugs.

I hate environmental training!

It is horrible. It was a very dry winter, so a creek near by might dry up. And it is going to be a HOT summer. It is April and the weather is a high of 82? F and low of 46? F today. Not going to be fun at all. Stupid global warming.
