Here in Indiana the past couple of days we've had temps in the 60's, almost 70. At the primaries today in New Hampshire it was in the high 50's, at least - instead of the average high of 31 (for Concord). If it got to 60 today - it would be a record. (Update) - Concord didn't set a record - but Nashua did - they had a 67 degree day yesterday - the previous record was 53 degrees).
There had been some great snow out east - I had been looking forward to cross-country skiing. The current system is supposed to blow through (there were intense tornadoes from Mississippi to Wisconsin) and the snow will return.
Meanwhile, Iran's heaviest snowstorm in decade kills 21
TEHRAN - The heaviest snowfall in more than a decade has left at least 21 people dead in Iran — some buried under avalanches, some frozen to death and others killed in traffic accidents, state media reported Monday.
As much as 22 inches of snow has fallen in areas of northern and central Iran since Saturday, said meteorologist Ali Abedini. The storm has forced schools and government offices to close, blocking major roads and leading to the cancellation of all domestic and international flights.
"At least 21 people have been killed and 88 others injured ... as a result of heavy snow," state-run radio reported. "Some died of the severe cold, some were buried under avalanches and others died after their cars overturned on snow-covered roads."
