Cherry Blossoms and Current Warm Weather

Bill, Emily, Sally and Dianne at Cherry Blossom Festival 4/3/11. It was a lot colder last year.

I liked the Washington Post comparison of weather extremes over the past few decades. Bottom line: We are having many more high temp extremes than we used to, and far fewer low temp extremes than we used to.

In a nutshell, probably this is a very good short term indicator of climate change.
