Don’t you understand? The cooling is caused by the warming!
Snow in the High Uinta mountains of Utah tonight, low of 29.
Been highs into the 70s here in southern Michigan for at least a week. A few days back I woke up and it was only 48 degrees.
Yep. 80 in Chicago today. Yesterday was 78 and tomorrow 82.
It’s rarely this cool this time of year. But I guess next week it’s supposed to be back to heat and humidity, IOW, regular August weather.
The leaves are beginning to turn and some are even dropping here in Illinois.
NW Illinois is having weather in the 70’s which is very unusual for August.
I know it's brutal out in Las Vegas and other places in the west, but it couldn't get any nicer here!
...But global warming is undisputed science. And so is the science of evolution.
don’t forget the northern polar region has NEW SEALANES open as a result of warming. (not to be confused with the south pole)
New sealanes equal faster routes and lower costs and less fuel use.
"I heard a strange thing today. TX corn farmers have noticed the spanish (TX) thistle is blooming which portends an early winter. Apparently the plant blooms 6 weeks before the first frost, which would put the first frost at Sept 1 or so? The one I heard this from got this from the centex corn belt.
I have a hard time believing that the first frost would hit THAT early but as I sit here in southwest Missouri it is 68 degrees with a forecasted high of 78. Normally temps are in the high 90's at this time.
This August feels like October or April here in Joisey.
It’s still all George Bush’s fault.
We have a house in NH, the roofers and painters have put us on the list, but they now say it’s going to be next year. They cite the late summer season, rain days and cold for lack of progress. They are also complaining bitterly about not making any money for the last two years and the enormous increased cost of supplies — Roofers use a lot of oil based products.
Maybe it will snow on the DNC next week - wouldn't that be rich??
Same thing over here in Idaho. Last weekend highs in the low 80s...all next week highs will be in the low 80s. Our normal August weather is usually around 105!!! It’s been our local joke “What Global Warming???”
It is really cold here in the mountains of Colorado. Right now, at 8500ft elevation it is 44 degrees. Predictions of snow above 10,000 ft.
If you were wondering where all the “drowning Polar Bear” stories are.......

Might just be because there is a lot more ice up there this time of year than there was last year.
