MINNEAPOLIS – Temperatures crashed to Arctic levels Tuesday as a severe cold wave rolled across the upper Midwest on the heels of yet another snowstorm, closing schools and making most people think twice before going outside. Early Wednesday, the cold front swept into New York, sending temperatures falling from the 30s a day before to single digits or below zero. It hit 8 below in Massena, on the St. Lawrence River in northern New York, with the wind chill making it feel like minus 25 degrees.

Thinking that climate is weather or vice versa is to show that one is as dumb as those on the other side of the climate change debate.

Are any of these record temperatures? I saw that yesterday beat the old all-time record for the date in Bismarck, ND by a full seven degrees F!

Looks like the Farmer’s Almanac hit a home run, and NOAA has egg on its face (again).

And it’s only January 14th!

We’ve got a lot more winter yet ahead of us!

I bet we see another blizzard here in southern Ohio like we did last year.

I’m definitely looking forward to the end of March or thereabouts. We can still gets cold and snow then but it doesn’t last too long.

When I told a lib that temperatures have actually been dropping over the last decade, she looked as if I’d told her I’d just run over her puppy.

I said, “don’t worry, the same people who were using global warming to push their socialist agenda will find another crisis to use”.

Its like speed and velocity - they may not be the same thing, but they are darn closely related.

I’m hating life here in south central Texas at 25.

I promise to never bitch about the heat again.
