Easter Weather

Postby Hegemon » Fri Apr 06, 2007 4:11 pm

Every year that I can remember has had terrible weather on Easter. This year is not an exception to that rule, as the weather has suddenly gotten a lot colder and more unpleasant.

Is the weather bad where you are too? Have any of you noticed a similar trend?

The weather was terrible all over northeast North America. I was up near Toronto for a few days, and it was terribly snowy and windy.

Whoa! Today and yesterday were some of the most beautiful weather we've had all year, but by Sunday the forecast is for 59°F and rain.

We were having lovely spring-like weather, getting into the 70's and sunny and everything but we're having thunderstorms and possibly snow over the weekend... SO weird. As far as trends, no clue since I'm new to the area.

I've noticed a similar trend HA...

If there is nice weather going into Easter weekend, it usually gets worse...colder, cloudier, usually some percipitation...

If the weather is bad going into Easter weekend, it usually gets even worse...

Right now, I'm very cold after a week of very sunny weather with temps in the high 60s...

90 F today, same for tomorrow, 82 for Sunday, then back up to 90 F.

For us, the weather changes around Fair Week (which varies from the last week in March to the first in April), with it currently being Fair Week. We end up with more wind, is all, making it bearable after the heat.

It might snow here in Northern Texas. I'm shocked. It's in the 50s now, but it's supposed to get colder.

Weather this year is absolute crap. Windy, negative tempuratures. Crap.

However, the past few years have been fairly nice Easter weather because I remember eating Easter lunch outside at least the past three years, which I could not do this year (unless it goes up by 20 degrees by noon tomorrow).

See, this does not bode well. I was going to try to make it to sunrise service for the first time... we'll see. Wind chill is below 20.

Around Easter every year I get annoyed. This is because I think back to my childhood in West Texas and how everyone was admonished not to bring chocolate to the Easter egg hunt. Because it would melt.

And here it never is above freezing for Easter.

And I'm ready for it to be above freezing.

into the wind, unafraid.

Last night we has some really strong wind. Today is really beautiful though, sunny with a nice breeze.

It's been nice all week here, then all of a sudden it took a turn yesterday and now it's raining pretty hard. Good times.

I spoke too soon, right after that it started to rain. Normal weather again.

It was nice in Barcelona yesterday, warm enough to wear a t-shirt, but it got cold at night. Before that, I was in Madrid, and it was pretty cold. Last weekend there was hail and buckets of rain in Barcelona.

The weather forecasts were for showers, heavy rain, and other less than savoury weather.

The reality was blue sky and sunshine ... and maybe a cloud or two.

*shrugs*
Makes for a nice difference. Usually if it's a long weekend it's going to rain.
