Ice Age Now May 29, 2021 by Robert
Snowfall in places! Freeze advisories in northern-tier states! On Memorial Day! Perhaps the idea that we’re headed for a new Little Ice Age isn’t so far-fetched after all.

29 May 2021 – “In the Northeast, daily high temperatures Saturday could be as much as 20 degrees below normal and even challenge records in places,” says AccuWeather senior meteorologist Alex Sosnowski. “Add to that a soaking rainfall and the recipe for a holiday weekend spoiler is complete.”
“There’s even the chance that some wet snowflakes can mix in at times over the higher elevations of upstate New York at the start of the weekend,” Sosnowski warns.
“A bit of sleet and snow was observed in parts of Wisconsin and the Upper Peninsula of Michigan Friday morning. North of the precipitation area, freeze advisories were issued over the northern tier of the United States.
Unseasonably cold air “may also challenge record low maximum temperatures that have been in the books as far back as the middle 1800s.”

It certainly is unusually chill were I am.
Very comfortable, perfect weather, with bright sunshine as a bonus.

It had been in the mid-40s here in NH since Saturday morning, and now has "warmed" up to 56°F. At least the rain has finally stopped.
