The saturday before last, it hit 70º in New York City–out on the street I saw countless people in t-shirts and flip-flops, and at least one guy running around shirtless, all this on January 7. But lately things have been suitably wintry. Today we’ve got temperatures in the 30s and flurries drifting down. It would be a relief, if I hadn’t just found out that it snowed in Los Angeles yesterday:
Meanwhile, Neil Woodburn at Gadling is reporting that the European ski season has been scotched by warm temperatures and lack of snowfall. The conditions have forced the cancellation of an upcoming World Cup downhill event at Chamonix, and several others as well. Somebody stop this crazy thing, I want to get off.
