But. It is indeed melting proving that algore is right. I mean if they just launched a rocket from the Swiss Ocean, he’s gotta be right. LOL! :>}
Holy Moly!
Gee, I thought Al Gore, Prince Charles and John Kerry have told us that by now there would be palm trees growing along Lake Superior and Duluth would be the new Miami. Poor Al Gore’s seaside mansion in California must be have the waves lapping at the patio from melting ice caps.
Astonishing. it MUST be Global Climate Disruption Warming Cooling
2 weeks ago I drove to Reno NV over I-80 (Donner Pass) and was surprised to see nearly no snow at all in the highest of the Sierra’s. We have no snow-pack. This is rare. This is scary.
One would think that finding a taco in Michigan would be about as hard as finding a frozen custard cone in California.
I flew over part of the Great Lakes last weekend going from Chicago to Philly. I was amazed at the vastness.
So... What about the taco?
Guess I wont be going for a swim in it this summer.
And when it all melts, the great lakes are gonna flood the country! Run for your lives!!!!!
WOW! On the backside road off Brockway Mtn. Drive along Lake Superior past Eagle Harbor and before Eagle River me and my cousin Steve decided to shed the clothes and go for a quick skinny-dip in Lake Superior. That was on a hot day in August about 15 years ago. Superior was very cold. If I recall correctly, it is one of the coldest, deepest freshwater lakes in the world.

When the boom is up and holding ice, it did seem to act as an 'air conditioner' when the wind blew the right way.
The winter of 2014 will no doubt go down as one of the coldest and snowiest on record, as even here in Traverse City it looks like the Keweenaw outside. Winter is no stranger to the Copper Country, however, and it has been an integral part of the regions character since its inception (and centuries before as well). Yet even through the bitterest cold and heaviest snows, the copper empire had to endure and so too did its hearty and rugged residents. While clearing our driveways every morning from another foot of snow, shoveling our roofs, and navigating icy and drifted roads may be a nuisance, it pales in comparison to what people of the region had to endure at the turn of the century. For a little perspective on yet another day of record setting cold I thought wed take a look at a typical Copper Country winter as it looked a century ago. Enjoy!

My mom (RIP) who was born and raised in traprock valley (outside of Calumet) on the Keweenaw peninsula said they had to cancel the 4th of July parade in Calumet one year because a snowstorm coming off Lake Superior dumped many inches of snow.
Global warming!
There can’t be! I was just at the NOAA site and they just posted an article about global warming and “averages.”
Wish I was up north. I dread the summer.
Without global warming, the great lakes would not exist!
