It was 71 yesterday in sunny Montana.  It is supposed to be forty for the high and snow and rain tomorrow but that is normal for this time of year here.  We have had a wonderful balmy fall.  One that allowed me to get all my falls work done and bees fed up with comfort and ease.  My condolence on your winter weather.  I know you are not used to it.

It's global warming. The hotter it gets, the more it snows. Just ask Al Gore.

We had miserable weather for Halloween up here.  Started out sleeting in the morning, then a cold rain, then snow.  Of coarse the icing on the cake was the wind!  I can’t believe anybody was out trick-er-treating.  Certainly didn’t break any records for nastiness in Michigan, but it sure was miserable.

According to NOAA, the planet is still setting record highs.

Kind of hard to argue with the data, but I do see that the eastern USA is about the only spot on their map cooler than average.  My bet is we (eastern US) are stuck with this abnormally cold pattern again this winter. :(  Probably some ocean current effect  :idunno:

The older I get (I'm 55 - very young) the more suspicious I get of any organization.

We had 77 yesterday in Pueblo, CO but it is falling and we're promised our first hard freeze Monday night.
Are any of us really ready for winter..... ever?

am i the only one that remembers ice storms every march and freezing at high school football games?  this is what i remember being normal from my childhood. 
jay is right, we are in one of the only regions that doesn't have a higher average temperature the last couple of years.  in january of 2013 we were having highs near 80.  i quit hunting because i was worried about rattlesnakes.  go figure. 
i think we're in for another winter like the one we had this year.  it's going to drag into late march or early april.

warming??? I don't think so . I recently read an article that the temp recording devices scattered around the country were incorrectly placed or that conditions had changed at their locations .ie new asphalt parking lots , buildings or other . they had done a survey of a large # of these weather recording stations all over the country.
this whole deal is another plot to tax us for the air we breathe. this called a co2 emissions tax.
and you think you may be paranoid . maybe not enough

>The hotter it gets, the more it snows. Just ask Al Gore.

That's why he had to start calling it "climate change" instead of global warming... because it's not warming...  Anybody remember the new "ice age" we were moving into back in the mid 80's...?  I'm glad that's over already...

whatever he calls it he got rich off the hype. As he burns the electricity of dozens of families and takes jets everywhere, can anyone spell H-Y-P-O-C-R-I-T-E? I think I spelled it right. G :chop:

You spell better than Quayle   X:X

On a side note, I heard on NPR (beeks favorite channel) that the Great Lakes are up a whopping 2 feet this year!  That is a heck of a lot of water.  Basically attributed to the cool conditions we've had for the last couple of years.  The cooler weather has resulted in lower rates of evaporation.

Only a foot of it, blue. The other foot came from the other side of the lake where global warming is coming from. It's melting more of the ice.   :evil: :evil:   :lau: :lau: :lau:

I was just looking at accuweather, looks like the extended forecast has scattered days of flying weather through mid december. Much better than last year. Will hope for the best. G  :chop:
