This is anecdotal and local weather does not equal climate, but where I am in Canada (over 600km north of the US border) we had green grass and no snow on the ground all through the Christmas/New Year holiday season. It wasn’t until January that we got nailed with cold and snow and it’s already almost gone again. Unless there’s another prolonged fall in temperatures we will have had like 8-10 weeks of typical continuous winter weather way up here in freaking Canada.
This. I’m northern alberta and we had a green Christmas (ok well mainly brown)
I’ve never experienced a winter as late and mild as this one.
The little snow we had is essentially now gone, and it’s supposed to be 17°C on the weekend. In March
+9° today lol
We’re so fucked
Single-day records are disconcerting, but climate != weather.
Ninth consecutive warmest month on record, however, is a little tougher to shrug off. (Or at least it should be.)
