If my memory serves me right, 1954 was the last time we had a La Nina as strong as the one we are now experiencing. Thanks for the history lesson Lowell, great story!
That historical tidbit, combined with Sky's experiences in April, and the recent accident, certainly give me pause when planning a trip during this unusually cold time. Thanks for the thorough analysis everyone - I'm very glad that folks are doing as well as can be expected, and talking about the lessons learned.
