WINTER

If you’re looking for some winter fun in snow and cold weather, this is something that might make you feel over the moon.

For more than 100 years, Michigan Tech University has staged what’s known as the Winter Carnival.

A spring storm brought several feet of snow to the Sierra Nevada and rain to parts of the San Francisco Bay Area, with more stormy weather expected this week.

The first so-called modern Olympics were held in 1896 in Athens.

It seems like it’s colder than usual just about everywhere in the country these days, which is obviously making a lot of folks sick and tired of the chilly weather.

The ashes of Winter the dolphin have been returned to the sea, about two months after the beloved marine mammal of movie star fame died at a Florida aquarium.

Winter has started out weird in the United States.

A prosthetic-tailed dolphin named Winter that starred in the “Dolphin Tale” movies has died at a Florida aquarium despite life-saving efforts by animal care experts.

It’s a one-in-a-lifetime spectacle brought to us by two huge planets in their orbit around the sun. Saturn and Jupiter haven’t been this close since the year 1623. “It’s something you definitely want to go out and see because you won’t see it again in your lifetime,” Matter said. “They’ll appear really close together, but in reality they’re about 450 million miles away from each other,” Matter said. “Anywhere you have a southwest clear view you’ll be able to see it, so you can see it from home,” said Matter.

PEMBROKE PARK, Fla. – Winter made its initial strike on South Florida Tuesday morning, but it was even colder by Wednesday. Many of us bundled up a bit as we felt lows in the upper 50s Tuesday morning, and we stayed parked in the 60s for afternoon highs. On Wednesday morning, temperatures were in the low 50s across South Florida with some inland neighborhoods briefly seeing temperatures in the upper 40s. Wednesday’s weather was the coldest South Florida has had since February and Tuesday was about 15 degrees colder than the average first day of December. Miami and other locations along the coast saw temperatures in the low 50s Tuesday night and early Wednesday morning.

The painting, discovered in an upstate New York museum, was part of a cache of art seized by the Nazis from the Mosse family in Berlin in 1933.

The next five to seven days generally are going to bring unseasonably low temperatures to the eastern two-thirds of the US, with a first chilly round hitting Friday and a second, colder Arctic blast coming later. Friday's cold snap could bring below-freezing temperatures to some places. Wind gusts in Boston are reaching 25 to 35 mph and will bring wind chills into the 20s as well, the NWS said. "The Great Lakes are no longer ice covered, so here comes the Lake Effect snow again," the National Weather Service said. Temperatures are expected to rebound a bit in the East over the weekend, but colder air will be coming.
