Quote: zoobrewThe scientific reason is because of the placement of the jet stream and if there is a big dip in the middle of the country. If it is a big U sometimes LV get the cold air rushing down from Canada and the East Coast get the rush of warm air from the gulf coast.
Thanks for sharing that, zoobrew. I am sure you are right.
Here in Vegas, we tend to pay less attention to these things. It just don't effect us that much. Usually when we look at the 7 day forecast, it just doesn't vary much. Usually sunny and whatever temperature which only varies by a degree or two for the entire 7 or 10 days in the foreseeable future. So when we get a day or two that are way out of whack, it's a shock. It's like "what the hell?" lol

I'm in Vegas now attending the Fremont Fall Golf Tournament.
We were playing our second and final 18 hole, four-man best ball scramble, this morning at Aliante in North Las Vegas.
We tee'd off at 7 and after 2 holes, they cancelled us for the day.
The guy in the Pro Shop said it was 47 outside with a wind chill of 37. Between the driving wind, rain and intermittent sleet it was miserable.
The unfortunate Hawaiian's were totally under dressed for the occasion. Luckily, I packed my storm gear and was not too uncomfortable.
Yesterday's round at Red Rocks Arroyo Course was picture perfect.
What a difference a day makes.

We've been having record highs in N. FL. I'm headed to the UF/Vandy game in Gainesville on Saturday. Noon kickoff -- the forecast says it's supposed to be 89°F (32°C)! That's pretty warm for a November game, even in Florida.
Last November, N. FL was setting record lows.

Been warm in NY for November, too. Totally ruining my fishing, but for working outside it's been a welcome. It's the anniversary of Snowvember, and rather than 80" of snow, we had a week of near 60's. It was even 60 today. Supposed to be 62 tomorrow (Thurs).
Monday? 30"+. I hope it all falls in an hour =p

Well, I guess THIS is our winter here in Vegas, for the next couple days. Highs 48-51 for next 4 days or so. Lows around 30, both 10 degrees cooler than 'normal'. And as usual whenever we have slightly cooler weather, other parts of the country experience warmer weather. I think that has to do with the jet stream. When we get Canadian weather coming down, other areas, get southern weather coming up.
Although the average temps for Dec and Jan are just about the same, selective memory and small sample size in my 6 winters here, December always is worse with one spell like this.

See thats what I like about living across the river from Detroit.....its the weather reports. Winter just doesn't seem so bad when its called 32*F instead of 0*C or 25*F instead of minus 4*C
Its all good until you hit minus 40*F which equals minus 40*C ....been there done that its not pleasant to say the least
Can picture those poor folks in Vegas....winter coats, scarfs hoodies gloves trying to survive 49*F oh my!!!

There was a huge frost event in the Midwest
last night. The week of may 10th is when most
people plant their flowers and gardens. It got
down into the 20's last night in a lot of areas.
The normal high for this date in W MI is 70,
it's 45 out there now. Some trees don't have
any leaves yet, and they're usually fully out
by may 10th.

toss in the snow this morning to boot.... SNOW enough to coat the roofs of the houses
cold enough that I didnt even complain that the brick layer doing my front porch took the day off
seeing how cold it was in this area over the weekend I guess we can expect the weekend murder rate in Detroit to be less than last weekends 21 shot at 17 different crime scenes and what was it 8 killed?

Not me, that would be a horrible injustice. I wake up around 5am and I hate the idea of having to wait longer for college football to start on Saturday's. I have from 5am to 6am to get my morning chores done and at 6am I turn on College Gameday and watch that until the games start at 9am. I already have hard time staying awake to watch the end of the Hawaii game that doesn't usually end until close to midnight when they play in Hawaii.
