Yep. 80 degrees last week, snow this week. Wider and wilder.
Big whoop, Montana 1916....
Another day, another 100-degree difference. A lot of people in the Midwest would probably guess a central state would have the most bipolar weather. Their folksy claims to using heaters one day and air conditioning the next is not without merit or cause. Fifty-degree, one-day temperature swings have been known to happen. However, Mother Nature’s biggest mood swing is further west, and Browning, Montana is the victim. According to historic records and as confirmed by NASA, the temperature fell 100 degrees between January 23rd and 24th, 1916. It went from 44° F to -56° F in 24 hours. We presume there was substantial shrinkage.
How about the wind, you're a blowhard olfraud so this will be right up your alley...
They call Chicago the Windy City, but much of that has been attributed to the hot air produced by Bears fans. Growing up, you probably thought the worldÂ’s windiest place was your living room, as your dad would nearly melt his recliner after dinner. ThereÂ’s also an argument to be made for Tornado Alley, since the areaÂ’s deadly namesakes whip up the breeze well into triple-digit speeds. True, researches did record a 318-mph puff during a twister in Oklahoma in 1999, but if you want the worldÂ’s biggest non-sports, non-gastronomic, non-storm-related wind, it was clocked at Mt. Washington, New Hampshire on April 12, 1934. It really blew, too: 231 mph was the final mind-blowing number.
This is from a frilly non science website, if I dig for an hour I can come up with a whole hell of a lot more but I would rather play with my daughter.
