I see Houston has cleared up from The Blizzard of Ought-9 we had back on December 4th. I think it was the earliest recorded snowfall in history for Houston.

When do the 2-mile high glaciers begin to engulf the northern ‘burbs on New York City?

The Mayon volcano in the Philippines is on that. (I wonder if the Philippine government bought carbon credits for that?)

And two inches of gloBull warming landed on my driveway last night.
