I had my fireplace going yesterday.

Today was awful at work. No heat, I was dressed for winter and wore a winter fleece jacket indoors all day. Awful.

42 degrees, cloudy, drizzle, May 14 had to put on heat.Please make this stop,LOL!

It looks like the temps are going up in about ten days. I have the wood stove going for the last week to combat the chill. I have used it here and there until the middle of May but this year and in this merry month of May, I have used it steady. The wetlands off the side of my driveway is starting to look like a swimming pool. Doc, based on your temp at 5:24 am this morning, here I am up 2 degrees to 44. Talk about a locked-in pattern. This is more like cemented in.

At least the sun came out for a while now of course it's raining again what else is new I guess May is the new October now

by **billg315** on Tue May 14, 2019 8:05 pm

I caved and put my heat back on Sunday night. It’s been on since then. Hopefully can shut it off for good (until October/Nov) by tomorrow afternoon.

by **skinsfan1177** on Tue May 14, 2019 8:45 pm

The warmth the models showed a day ago looks to be muted now. Also some long range modeling shows the trough sticking around into june

by **dkodgis** on Tue May 14, 2019 9:24 pm

Skins, I did see that trend. I guess I was in denial. Now it looks more and more like mid-June unti the first week of Aug for a summer. Just 6-7 weeks of pool weather. Where are those 103 degree days when you need them?

by **Dunnzoo** on Tue May 14, 2019 11:48 pm

And another .25" today, in the drizzly, light rain variety. Looking forward to a nice dry weekend!
