I saw today that we can expect another of these wind/rain storms this coming weekend.
My question is: what's with these? And this weather in general, that seemed to be a pattern last year as well? It seems like we have cold dry days, but then whenever precipitation comes in, the temperature shoots up, and we wind up with rain. I vaguely understand that something about the warmth etc causes precip.
To what do we owe this? Is it something that is consistently happening and becoming more common in winters around here, or is that in my head? What is contributing to it, and will it stay this way for the foreseeable future, or is hit a hit or miss depending upon the storm?
Yes, I enjoy snow and absolutely loathe rain, esp colder winter rain.
