Can Americans blame Canada for all this cold air? Y'all be careful out there.

Where is that climate prophet Algore when we need him? He could just give his canned “Inconvenient Truth” speech and the hot air would melt the glacier that has enveloped KS.
Wonder what would happen if it becomes apparent that another Ice Age is looming? The climate “experts” will never admit it, but it would be amusing to hear their explanations.

It’s Canada’s fault. Or was it Bush’s fault. Maybe global warming.

No electric power?

It’s how the environazis want us all to live.

Wait for the glowing reports of the ‘freedom’ of no electricity.

Here in Kentucky, we dodged the worst of that monster - but we’ve been under gale-force winds since late last night.

And this thing came in like a jet! I was outside under sunny skies at 3PM Saturday, ducked inside before going to work - by 3:45, it was overcast and blowing. By 7PM, the rains started.

Power was out in parts of Louisville briefly today. The crews are out there in this mess, and here’s hoping they’re all right.

Pushbroom on a foot of snow? Americans need to think ahead a little, maybe buy a decent snowshovel before it’s actually needed.

This is why God made home generators.

When the power grid goes down (and it will), the standby generator is there to run the electrical devices on which so much of our lives depend.

Home generators may NEVER reach a cost-effective point in terms of pure economics (each kW of energy is going to cost WAY more than the power grid can supply it for) but the uncertainty and inconvenience of relying on the power company to restore power puts a double toll on the guy out there on the tower in a raging storm trying to reconnect the system - without causing a power surge or drop that knocks out the whole grid.

My 16 year commented on all the news reports about terrible winter storms

He said Dad:
"Why do news reports make such big deals out of snow storms in winter, what do they expect sunny and 75' degrees in December ?"

Seriously, it’s been noted in the New Media that these snowstorms are being deliberately played down in the MSM because they don’t fit the Global Warming template.

I’m in MI. It was 46 degrees here and all the snow we had melted. From what I can see, no white Christmas. Where was this at?

Funny push broom there, it looks just like a tow strap.
