Even though the average temperatures over the three-month winter season is forecast to be above normal in much of the country, there will still be bouts of winter weather with cold temperatures and frozen precipitation.

Conrad Lautenbacher

Temperatures have been climbing in recent years on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

Wang Ling

It shows how little snowfall we had during the 2004-2005 season. The previous year's measurements reflected a different situation, when meltdown was accelerated by high temperatures during the summer of 2003.

Andreas Bauder

The Alpine glaciers are highly sensitive to climate changes. As temperatures rise, they melt and shorten.

Hanspeter Holzhauser

Bikers don't seem to mind the rain. It's better than snow and sub-zero temperatures, after all.

Carry Porter

There are no warmer temperatures in sight.

Dmitry Kiktyov

It's the worst possible fire conditions ? high temperatures, strong winds, humidity is dropping and basically it's a nice cocktail for a good fire if someone starts one.

Col. Michael Rossi

It is usually quick, going from temperatures around 60 degrees and moderate to snowing. It is one of the more interestingly quick events, but certainly not the quickest.

Ray Martin

We've had high temperatures, low humidity and high winds, and that causes, literally, a perfect storm.

Oklahoma Govbrad Henry

I believe they may well, if they have been properly stored ? without access to outside people so they cannot be tampered with. Also in a refrigerator or deep frozen, ... If not in such a situation ? there's no guarantee they have not been subjected to undue temperatures.

Arne Ljungqvist

Farther west temperatures will be even higher. In St. Louis temperatures are expected to rise to 80 degrees tomorrow. They have a shot at the record, which is 81 degrees.

Dale Mohler

Oh my gosh, it's spring time. The temperatures are perfect; the snow is perfect. There are longer days, longer light. The warm temperatures aren't really going to affect the ski conditions. They might soften the snow, making it a little bit slower. But there's several feet of base up here right now. We prepare for warm temperatures.

Vicki Baumann

The cause of the persistent warmth has been an unusually active jet stream off of the Pacific Ocean. A west-to-east storm track brought mild air across the country, resulting in above normal temperatures for mostly every state.

Eric Horst

The significant result of these future scenarios is the progressive raising of mean global temperatures and the movement of climate zones in connection with that. Almost everywhere on earth, the forestry industry will have to husband different types of trees than it has until now.

Erich Roeckner

As the weather continues to warm to springtime temperatures, more wild critters will start to roam into areas looking for food, increasing the chances of unexpected interactions with people and their pets.

Ella Boyd

If temperatures continue to increase in the tropical North Atlantic, many of the coral reefs there (and their ecosystems) may be affected by bleaching. Also, since hurricane development does depend on sea surface temperatures, the conditions necessary for hurricanes to form may be accentuated.

Edward Kearns

The rain on Sunday night combined with the warm temperatures have caused us to lose the over-seed on our greens and you can't have that happen. With a cold front moving through the next couple of days with more wind, the greens should get faster.

Eddie Carbone

It sounds like maybe a good-news story with respect to temperature and climate change, but raises the question about RSV epidemics that occur in the tropics, where temperatures are always much higher.
