Today's Forecast - Depression

So it's Saturday morning and I'm barely awake but I turn on my computer and my trusty WeatherBug pops up and delivers this cheery news:
It's currently 21 degrees in St. Paul with a wind chill of 17.
Okay, no biggie, it's been in the 20's all week.
Today will be windy and cloudy with a 50% chance of snow.
Well it IS winter in Minnesota, no surprise there.
Expect a high of 25 degrees and a low of -15 degrees.
SAY WHAAAAAAT?!?!! !#$%^&*
Okay, I'm awake now. Thanks WeatherBug.

Seriously, WTH is with all the temperature swings?! Can I please have my high and low temps within 10 degrees of each other?? And this is just the temperature, I'm sure the wind chill will be -30 again. Ughhh! I think I picked a really good time to move to a milder climate. I don't even care if global warming causes the glaciers to melt which causes the sea levels to rise putting the west coast under water - I choose THAT over this. I just wish April 1st would get here faster. 51 days and counting...

By the by, I took a peek at Seattle's forecast just to further torment myself. High: 49° Low: 44°. Now that is more like it! Sure it rains often in Seattle, but I think we've already established that a little excess water will not deter me. Heh.


P.S. In retrospect it seems callous of me to complain about the weather here when there have been storms all across the country and so many people lost their lives in the recent tornadoes. My heart goes out to everyone who was affected by this tragedy and I pray for them. I know I'm fortunate and blessed and I'm truly grateful for everything I have. But what can I say, it is just my nature to be complainey and self-centered (hence, the blog about ME). Hey, at least I can admit it!
