Isn't it interesting how the more they scream about 'global worming' the colder our climate gets, and the colder it gets, the louder they scream?

Not here in Michigan. When I was a kid, it was wintertime by Thanksgiving. Now, we don't really get snow until after Christmas and the grass is still green at Thanksgiving. Our leaves used to fall in late September - now they fall in late October. I had to mow my lawn last week in Detroit. That was certainly not the case 20 or 30 years ago - I would have been shoveling snow.

There is no question that the climate has gotten warmer over the past 30 years - the debate is to WHY.

I believe (as most rational persons do) that it is merely another warming cycle in the natural order of things. But to say it isn't getting warmer is refusing to see reality. Of course there are always little ups and downs from year to year - but over the past 30 years it has definitely gotten warmer in Michigan.

It may be getting warmer for your area, but mostly it is markedly cooler across the country.

That's strange. I like in Central Ohio and our leaves changed in Mid-October and I have not mowed my lawn since October. - same as always.

Are you near the heat island that is detroit?
