Thread: could use some global warming right now

with all the hype/non hype of global warming. i have one thing to say, and that is this, I could definately use some global warming right now. Here in my little part of the world, we are in the upper teens/lower 20's with a wind chill of around 0. this is the second year in a row, that we have had these bitter temperatures. I dont believe that i am the only one with these regards.

A little hotter wouldn't hurt here either. -20 degrees C and a windchill of almost -30 (-4 and -22 F).

Ah yes, the temperatures have gone down a bit over here as well. -17C here now.
But as we say here, there is no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothes.

(and that sounds way better in Norwegian )

Real men use jeans and a t-shirt no matter what the weather is like. At least that's what the Finns coming past around here claim

Wvloony, Fahrenheit or Celsius?
-23 C here (-9 F). I do not know about the wind chill but there's almost damn windy here on the coast. However this not bad after you get used to it.

I'm sure the eskimos would also prefer to lay all day on the beach and just reach for a banana from the tree when they get hungry, to clubbing baby seals. So I'd say very likely you're not the only one with those thoughts. Neither the only one who doesn't understand the difference between 'local' and 'global'.

and I think gugi could use some encouraging news from his liberal agenda sources! Seems he is sweating a little not from global warming but from anecdotal evidence to the contrary!

Perhaps you missed this from the NOAA:

Just a bunch of scientist and climatologists. What the heck to they know...?

They know what Obama tells them to know. What do you take me for, some mindless, chrome-plated wingnut?

By the way, I was outside this morning for ten minutes and nearly froze to death. I suppose you would gloat over my frozen corpse about the dangers of global warmth too huh. What are you a penguin? You should ask Santa if he's hiring elves for the warm season
