America could actually use some global warming right about now. It is being projected that low temperatures across the Midwest could be 30 to 50 degrees below average on Monday morning.
On Sunday, fans that attempted to tailgate before the playoff game between the 49ers and the Packers at Lambeau Field in Green Bay, Wisconsin were discovering that their beers were actually turning to icebefore they could drink them. That is cold. But things are going to get really chilly when nightfall arrives. In fact, it is being projected that much of the nation will experience wind chill temperatures of more than 40 degrees below zero, and wind chill temperatures of more than 50 degrees below zero are expected in parts of North Dakota and Minnesota. The weather is expected to be so cold that the governor of Minnesota has actually decided to close public schools statewide on Monday. The last time that happened was back in 1997. The reason why the governor of Minnesota did this is because when temperatures get this low they can literally be life threatening. When wind chill temperatures get down to about 50 below zero, if your skin is exposed you can literally develop frostbite in about five minutes. This is being called the coldest day in America in 20 years, and these cold temperatures have many Americans wondering what ever happened to all of that “global warming” that Al Gore and other “climate scientists” have been warning us about for so many years.

Why are geniuses at the B O.E. allowing Beaver Run to remain open today?! The school's heating system cannot keep up and the school is not completely enclosed!!!
ReplyDeleteI wish you dummies, regardless of which side of the argument you are on, would get a grip on the facts of the issue. The expected results of climate change are extreme weather events such as the current cold snap. These events naturally occur but are expected to happen more often with climate change. NO ONE is saying the current cold snap is climate change related, unless they similarly fall into the same dum dum category.
ReplyDeleteIt's so cold in Delmar, I just saw a lawyer walking down the street with his hands in his own pockets.
ReplyDeleteif the beer was actually turning to ice, than the stadium authority was watering the stuff down.
ReplyDelete12:16. Well said. And of course, lest we forget, it's actually summertime in the lower half of the world. I bet the folks in Argentina and Uruguay would happily trade a few of their >100 deg temps today for a bit of our cold weather. Climate change isn't about what we're experiencing day to day in one location. Of course, maybe in a day or two, we can start preaching global warming again when it's back in the 50s.
ReplyDelete"Climate change" is code for. We're going to blame every weather event on man made CO2.
ReplyDeleteEven if every prediction we've ever made about the man made demise of the earth has not come true, we will still persist in trying to impose a huge tax to fix what's not broke.
And to think we elected him for president...or at least I thought so when I went to bed that night.Personally I would have preferred global warming rants over Iraq and Afghanistan any day,but that's just my 2 cents worth.
