4. We had our first (and hopefully, only) snow of this winter on Saturday.

Usually Seattle gets most of our snow from January to mid-February, when we get a few inches and it all melts off in a few days. All of our cherry and plum trees were already in full bloom.

Nighttime low temps have ranged from hovering around freezing on Friday night and are now predicted to be at the mid-50's by Wednesday.

It's just another effect of our global climate weirding. I don't see it getting any better, any time soon. Plan for your local weather to suffer wilder swings as the planet's climate warms.
