Newflyer, let me help you with showing what your words were on the 1st page:
"In Calgary its cold and miserable in late April... 3rd day of snow and expected to get another big dump tonight... meanwhile Winnipeg is enjoying high teens and low 20's. The fact is spring hits Winnipeg in march.. and ussually warms up in April is a testament to our compatitively nice climate"
Now, I never said it doesn't snow in April (or May), but you write this crap like its just normal all the time.
Let me point out clearly what's wrong with it:
It reached 20c twice in April in the Peg...not 21c, but 20c. Twice. High-teens...3 times (over 17c). It's hit 20c zero times in May so far (possible exception might be today, the 14th).
Despite having a craptastic April (as you gladly pointed out...and, it was the worst cold streak in late-April in over 30 years BTW), it still reached over 20c once in Calgary, and the high-teens 4 times...yes, with a nice week of winter in between.
I also never said that Calgary gets more days of over 25c or 30c..ever (though, it does happen) - so not sure where that came from. It's no secret by the end of May, Winnipeg is warmer than Calgary by a couple degrees on average - so, if its 26 in Winnipeg, it might only be 23 in Calgary - oh well (but, on average, it would be more like 19 in Winnipeg to 16-17 in Calgary).
It's how you go off about snow/cold in April, but Spring is starting in MB in March!? (BTW - you also failed to notice it snowed in May in the Peg...on the 4th - and with a bitter -9c that night too).
Here's March this year - hardly looks like Spring (granted, I am pulling your tricks, and showing one bad year...it is a couple degrees below normal):
And here are the 1971-2000 averages (at the Airports)...you'll notice that under the column heading "Apr" (which, is April), Calgary shows 11.3 to Winnipeg's 10.3...so, yes, even if Calgary had a crappy April this year (which it partly did - about 4 degrees off "normal"), it still manages to be technically "warmer" (I mean that in the slightest way possible) than April in the Peg. Now, do I have to explain how averages work, or do you have that covered?
So - again...your "facts" on Page 1 had no business being in the thread, which is what I take exception to.
