Be thankful that we have Gorebull Warming or this cold wave would be really serious.

Global Warming
Only minus 8 here but I’m right on the shore of Lake Superior. This time of year we get the peculiar phenomenon of the big lake actually warming the cold. Most of the rest of the year it’s the other way around.
Not THAT cold in the Twin Cities today. But, what really saved us was full sun all day and not a breath of wind.
How far from Frostbite Falls?
It was 70 today, supposed to be 80 later this week. Where is our ice age?
