Headed for a “year without a summer?” 10 Jun 09 – AccuWeather's Joe Bastardi expects areas from the northern Plains into the Northeast to have a "year without a summer." “The last time this happened was the Tamboro eruption in 1815 followed by a year without a summer in 1816,” says reader Charles Patrick. See Headed for a “year without a summer?”
No biggie. Cap-and-Trade will solve everything. /s
I think it started about 10 years ago according to my natural gas consumption increases year after year!
Let's see if Mexico can hold back the waves of Norteamericanos streaming across their border.
In a few years, people here in the US won’t be able to afford to heat their homes.
I’m thinking 7 years ago. but I’m with you. What’s 3 years to argue about when we’re facing an ice age?
I wanted a fireplace when we built the house, but noooooo everybody else said it was to much of a bother.
And there isn’t a damn thing we can do about it.
Here in Wisconsin we are struggling to hit 70.

Ahem. I'm sorry, I mis-spoke. What I meant to say is that Rapid Climate Change is upon us. This is the reason some areas may be getting colder. It really doesn't matter, send more money.
Sadly, probably not really satire...
What about canada?
Same here in MI.
So far, we haven’t had summer, and summer is half over. It’s at least 10-20 degrees below normal day and nightime temps.
Farmers have missed the seeding season. It’s going to be a bad year for grain crops, just watch prices hit all time highs this fall as harvest estimates fall well below average.
Stock up on your oats for your porridge now.
Get one of those plug in ones, vented or ventless. Or a chiminea.
I also hear soapstone, once it really heats up, stays hot.
A franklin stove is easy to add...if you don’t mind an ugly steel stove pipe sticking out of your roof.
If you read the article you will see that cold records are being set in Canada this month.
We spent the summer of 07 in the Canadian Maritime Provences and Newfoundland. All the locals up there said there was no “summer”. A lot of cold and wet. Lots of bergs in Newfoundland and much later than usual.
The summer of 06 we got snow in Alberta coming south from Alaska on a record early snowfall. All of our three year tour of N. America we heard of colder than usual weather from local people.
Chilling news ping
If this should happen, what of the climate models? Any “scientist” who relies on current models which failed to predict the cooling that has already occurred have forfeited their right to be taken seriously. If they want to be heeded, shouldn’t their models predicting the future trends at least comport with observable passed events and present trends?
