JUSTA, I am sure you remember distinctly the last two "second weeks in summer" for the lower Australian continent experiencing the coldest recordings as well as snow falls for the past two consecutive years. Things are definitely changing in the global climate and they are not going to a "ahem gradual global warming cycle".
It is 4:06AM my time. I have to get some sleep. But I am going to book mark this entry for further reading tomorrow if it is HIS will for me to get up.
I'm shot at this point. But I cannot think otherwise.....that the past few years as we read about accumulated record amounts of snow and ice at the southern pole that we are not now experiencing the gradual switch to a mini ice age in both hemispheres and in between. Channel is always open at my end for further verifications.
Both do have a great upcoming day.

Get some sleep. 2012 is right around the corner. Starting to think those Mayans knew something :> The Pacific is overturning big time right now. Cold upwellings in the Eastern Pacific. We have been very cold here on the West coast. Getting frost warnings in the So Cal valleys. The east coast has been fair because the North Atlantic has not gone into cold mode yet. Florida has been lucky so far, but they will get the usual Late December and January cold blasts. They are coming. Difficult to predict what happens in a solar maximum with weak magnetism. You get more cosmic rays because magnetosphere is weak, but more atmospheric energy because the sun has activity. And some are claiming sunspot size has been decreasing. Would love to see sunspot images from SC 23 compared to SC 24. Tried to find some comparisons last night, but ran out of time. At any rate, just be packing plenty of Coors Lite. Those cold trains are coming.
