Weather in New England

Everyone knows about weather in New England. What's the old saying?  "If you don't like the weather, wait five minutes." 

Brrrr. 

Well, judging by the way 2013 has started, the month of January has been the epitome of what it means to live in the Northeast. 

You have to feel for the local meteorologists. I mean, how can one day be sixty degrees, and a few days later, snow and ice.  

Then another week, things "warmed up" to the high 40's so I decided to take the hose out of the garage and give my car a wash, just like it was, um, September. 

But this is January right.  Global warming.  Well, hold everything.  

Yes, things got a bit chilly last week. Yep, single digits while walking the dog and single digits while trying to get to work. 

But wait, a minute.  Enjoy that cup of Coffee Exchange Coffee, because now a week later, we're back up in the high 40's, and low and behold, the forecast calls for 54 degrees and rain.  I mean, it was 5 degrees a few days ago.  Think about that swing for a moment.  

Well, it is January in New England, after all. I do need to wash my car again.
