We had a lovely weekend here in Quincy, but the weekend is obviously over and snow is falling again.Temperatures were in the 80's on Saturday and 70's on Sunday. Take a look at this video. It really is Monday.  

Let's be honest. The news of yet another winter storm is depressing. If you're like me, at this point you're getting desperate to find some way to stay cheerful. Amateur weatherman Frankie MacDonald just might be able to brighten your day.

Have you heard that the Old Farmer's Almanac predicts bad weather for us, this winter? Do you believe the Old Farmer's Almanac? Do you pay attention to what they predict?

Here we are, in a familiar situation. The rivers are rising, storms are brewing, and our insane weather continues. Just think, within the last few years we've had a blizzard, a heat wave, a drought, a couple floods, tornadoes and severe thunderstorms. Those are the ones I can remember. I doubt that anyone has a "favorite" extreme weather condition, but which of these events is the easies

One of the better benefits of the rain is getting to see a rainbow. Last nights rainbow was spectacular! Almost a complete arc, some of it even doubled. I don't ever recall seeing a rainbow so large as the one from last night:

As I write this, it's mostly sunny and 83 degrees on Wednesday afternoon. Don't get used to it. A drastic cold front will be sweeping across the area and some forecast models indicate the area could get upwards of four inches of rain over the next couple of days...

It's not only April, but the last half of April. Tax Day has come and gone. Easter is over. We're just a little over a month away from Memorial Day. And there were snow flurries this morning. What?

The area's first real taste of weather has arrived. Temperatures started out mild, but have fallen below freezing, and a mix of rain and snow has become all snow. 2 - 4 inches of accumulation is predicted for the Quincy/Hannibal area.

The first few days of December, 2012 have been...strange, to say the least, when it comes to the weather. Most of us are not complaining. But as Christmas approaches, I can't help but think that it just won't be right if the temperature doesn't become more seasonable. And what about a white Christmas? Everyone likes a white Christmas, right?

Friday night marked the beginning of a tragedy for the American people — an electrical storm hit the East Coast and brought down Netflix, Pinterest and Instagram. You could practically hear the crazy stay-at-home cat people howling.
