thanks, altitude

I live at roughly 36 degrees north latitude. That's farther south than the southernmost point of Spain; the 36th parallel crosses Algeria, Tunisia, and Pakistan, among other places.*

Today is the 28th of April.

It is snowing.



*Okay, it also crosses Tibet, which although twice as elevated as where I live, is probably more comparable. I bet it's snowing there, too.

It's not that I like hot weather. In fact I hate it. But I don't like snow either and felt the need to complain.

Snow is so rare for me, I love it. And still did even when I lived in London and Frankfurt. It's rain that hacks me off.

Snow is awful to deal with. Where I am the weather was going back and forth between 70°F and snow for a bunch of March, but now seems to have settled on an unseasonable amount of rain.

Elevation makes things so strange! (Most of Australia is at sea level, and none of it is as high up as you live). I hope the snow and impending heat average out and give you a nice, mild summer.

Yikes. I live around 40 deg. N, and it was almost 80. The weather is very odd.
