| [RANT] COLD! I am glad I am getting closer to moving south. It is almost June and almost have to put the heat on. When you factor in the rainy days in the summer with the cold you end up with a couple of weekends of decent weather. Oh...and I hate it when someone says, "It is still spring." We do not have a spring....we have cold and hot. I prefer the HOT therefore the South is the place for me. I would much rather try to cool off them warm up. There, I have got it off my chest. | |

| Re: [RANT] COLD! I prefer it hot myself: I'm very very thin and prefer it about 80° to 90°.
Unfortunately, due to my financial state I don't think I'd be able to move easily. Looks like I'm stuck enduring the Connecticut winter. I can tolerate it but that's about it. -- HCN: Because you deserve a rest!

| said by pandora :It was 48F in the middle of the day yesterday in Danbury, I had to put some heat on. Today it's a warm 61F (as I type this). You are correct, it is almost June and we have March or very early April temps. Connecticut is too cool this year. If I were mystical, I would say it's because my wife's parents arrived here at the beginning of May, from the sunny, hot Philippines. It's been chilly and rainy ever since they got here. I've not seen anything quite like it since 1977. | |

| Re: [RANT] COLD! I would rather take off clothes then put more on and I would rather use AC then Oil. In the south you can go to a swimming hole and cool off and have cold showers. Take a look around Ct. and you do not see many people outside in the Winter time compared to the Summer. | |

| Alright.. this rain has gone too far.. Let's see.. it rained from April to last night, with very few dry days in between. In fact, it's been raining pretty much since May 2. Our electric bill revealed an interesting fact about temps.. last year's avg temp: 70ºF. This year: 62ºF. | |

| Re: [RANT] COLD! Climate changes affect different areas of the world differently.
Contemplating this some time ago I have concluded that perhaps "global warming" may have changed Connnecticut's average climate to one with cooler, more rainy summers and warmer, drier winters. -- HCN: Because you deserve a rest!

Contemplating this some time ago I have concluded that perhaps "global warming" may have changed Connnecticut's average climate to one with cooler, more rainy summers and warmer, drier winters. So a cooling Connecticut climate would prove global warming to you? Note bolded, please.
While not wishing to get into a debate on the veracity of scientific claims of anthropogenic global warming, climatological changes affect different areas differently due to local conditions. While the net effect of a change may be the same in nearly all areas, there will be local variations upon that net change.
Here in Connecticut, summers now seem cooler and wetter than in my youth while winters appear to be warmer and drier. -- HCN: Because you deserve a rest!
