Title: Opening Day 2018
Post by: Merlin the Elder on April 11, 2018, 05:46:39 AM
Constant wind (not breeze...WIND), near constant misting, spitting snow... At 3:30 p.m., it was 40° with a wind chill of 24°. Bloody BRRRRRR!!!!!

Sunday was lovely!

Went to Bristol two or three years back... temperatures were 15° above normal. Went to Colorado last year and the natives were complaining of record heat with day temps around 95°. Went to Scarby last weekend and froze my cod piece off. Something is amiss!
