This cool and miserable weather seems to be normal for me. I can't remember a heat advisory in 2008, and I know I have not gotten one this year
I am extremely upset that we are experiencing El Nino influenced weather, as 2006-2007 was an El Nino winter. That was the worst and most miserable winter of my life. 31 inches of snow the whole winter (lowest since I have been alive) and it was warmer and rainier than normal.
