I guess a “hockey stick” would really come in handy.

Why can’t we tap into those ‘millions of degrees’ of heat in the center of the Earth that Al Gore told us about?

Something similar hit southern PA exactly twenty years ago in 1994.

On a morning with the low about -20F I watched the steam cloud from the local paper mill just hold motionless over the town in a windless arctic clear blue sky.

In the town itself there was steady snow precipatating from the cloud. Inches of it! Outside of town, brilliant sunshine.

We need everyone to keep their SUVs running 8 hours a day and maybe frequently spray a little deodorant on your armpits. We need some “global warming”. Bad!

I HATE the use of the wind chill factor and ‘feels like’ to describe the actual temperature. Just tell me the dang temperature...

I lived in Williston for about 3 years when my husband was transferred there. This Texan learned what cold its! LOL!

Those people know cold! OTOH, it was the only place we lived where there was no hot lunch program in the schools. The kids walked home for lunch every day...............The nicest people lived there, and we have stayed friends with several of them.

They’ve had a huge oil boom recently in the Williston area, and I have heard that the population is skyrocketing!

An old friend of mine who works in the logging business out in western Canada once told me that there is nothing more miserable in life than changing the oil in his heavy equipment out in the field when it’s -30 or colder. Holy smokes — I’m freezing cold even just thinking about that.

Freakish? Is it really freakish? We’ve had it worse than this. It’s been awhile since it’s been this cold, but I wouldn’t call it freakish. It’s winter in the Midwest.

Maybe “Sampled” would be more appropriate than “Warm up”!!!!
