And it's April. All up in New England and at least part of the Mid-Atlantic.


And some would have you believe in global "warming."

I know, there was ice on my car this morning by georgeha (2.00 / 0) #2 Wed Apr 05, 2006 at 06:29:42 AM EST
I had to scrape. There was ice on my back steps last night, I nearly fell with my precious carburetor cradled in my arms.

I'm going to fire up the chimenea and release some carbon into the air, take the Gaia!

If so, you're part of the problem.

But all three of those things are part of the ecosystem we live in. Just like smog, and cigarette smoke. Everything comes to an end, eventually, and in my estimation, anyone who is in favor of preserving humanity, as a species, is an asshole, or an idiot, or both.

Mid 80's today. by blixco (4.00 / 2) #12 Wed Apr 05, 2006 at 06:46:12 AM EST
Muggy this morning.

The second year (or maybe it was the first) we were in Worcester, it snowed.  Something like fifty feet of snow in four minutes.

It was crazy, man.

Goddamn liberals, changing the goddamn weather.

I lost about 1/3 of a tree in that storm. by ana (4.00 / 1) #22 Wed Apr 05, 2006 at 08:09:34 AM EST
Woke up, looked out, and i'm all "wtf? that's not my front yard!" what with the tree limb down across the 2 hedges and the whole thing covered in a foot of snow. next time that happens, the other 2/3 of that tree will separate and come crashing down.

Sevety feet of snow a minute, all night long.  By the time we woke up, we were under thirty five thousand feet of snow.

That's why this time of the year is so great by Bob Abooey (2.00 / 0) #20 Wed Apr 05, 2006 at 07:43:18 AM EST
You can get all four seasons over the span of one week. We had summer over the weekend, Fall on Monday and Winter Tue and today with Spring weather in the forcaste for the rest of the week.

You can't beat it.

Christ, don't you understand anything? by komet (2.00 / 0) #21 Wed Apr 05, 2006 at 07:51:49 AM EST
The earth is getting warmer, so due to the law of energy conservation somewhere else must be getting cooler: the atmosphere is cooling, which is why it's snowing in April.

Don't they teach you anything in school? Oh, scratch that, you're USian, they probably taught you faith-based climatology.

Latest snow I ever experienced was by calla (2.00 / 0) #24 Wed Apr 05, 2006 at 08:35:05 AM EST
in Utah. We had snow during the first week in June 1982.

I've never seen snow that late since.

when the big fear was that a new ice age was coming.

In the late seventies, 'ice age' was the meme. Oh, if only we had The Internet back then, I'm sure we could have solved that potential problem handily by exhorting eachother to drive more SUVs, etc.

It IS coming, eventually by Rogerborg (2.00 / 0) #29 Wed Apr 05, 2006 at 10:25:34 AM EST
I pity the survivors; they'll have to go straight from steam jalopies to nukular powered hovercars, without the civilising benefit of 10mpg SUVs in the middle.

myth? by tps12 (2.00 / 0) #32 Wed Apr 05, 2006 at 12:50:29 PM EST
According to this piece, the 70's ice age fearmongering was the result of the popular press misunderstanding the scientific theories and predictions of the time. It doesn't sound like any actual scientists were predicting climate change (in any direction) the way they are now.
