Eight years ago on the Pasty Cam: 12/14/98^{Printed on Recycled Internet}

The caption on this photo eight years ago said it all ... both then and now. This hockey player . . . mid-December . . . no ice . . . Gazette box . . . no snow.

Winter lovers hold hope, since today's forecast includes the "S" word.

Morning!

Good morning.

Mornin'! Oh no, not the "S" word! Yipee for the UP!

No "S" word down here in Lansing. It's supposed to be 55 today. Woo hoo!!

Since many of these pictures from 8 years ago show weather similar to this year's, does any one know what the weather was back then for a little later, like a possible white Christmas, and beyond?

There's Charlie and Edie's Pasty Girl!

Dang! It's cold out there...it's not even close to 55. It's only 47 and windy out there and I didn't wear a warm coat today.

The weather person: Only job where you get paid to lie.

Probably the last completely accurate forecast was when God told Noah there was a 100 percent chance of precipitation.

Just checked the local weather data for my place. Near the airfield: 0.4°C. About a mile away, the university's weather station: 6.6°C.

With situations like that, how about: only job where you get paid for being constantly wrong?

DANBURY - Thank You link...it was very nice!!!

Good afternoon!

Finn "HANCOCK" or HANKO town here in FINLAND

Derek,
Sure hope you have safe travels. Enjoy your time home. I am afraid you won't be snowshoeing this week. We were so close to snowshoeing conditions a couple weeks back. I can't wait to go either.

Tell your Dad that Lorelei says hello!!

Jarmo--Now I understand why all the street signs in Michigan's Hancock are also in Finnish. Hanko looks very beautiful.
