    A pretty interesting read.

    Most people who bitch that Trump backed out of the Paris agreement haven't even taken the time to figure out what was spelled out in that agreement in the first place.
    It's only "science" if it supports the narrative.

    Meet Paul. Paul is a spammer. Paul thought that by hiding links to gambling sites in his post, he could fly under the radar.

    I wonder if there is anything real with this, or just more BS. I don't have time to cipher through it all anymore

    Interesting...

    Now the question is...how can we pin this on human activity?

    It's real, but not new. Here is the story from NASA:

    Utah is a very special and unique place. There is no where else like it on earth. Please take care of it and keep the remaining wild areas in pristine condition. The world will be a better place if you do.

    The volcanoes can be blamed on the natives throwing virgins in for human sacrifice.

    Believe it or not, there used to be a time when we snickered at the thought of ancient humans thinking they could influence the weather and climate.

    Kinda like how the Republicans didn't read their own tax code.

    I've read the new tax code and it's going to be very good for me... so what's your point?

    From KSL: https://www.ksl.com/?sid=46229471&ni...cold-to-follow

    "National Weather Service meteorologist Dan Peterson said record low temperatures were predicted for 28 major cities across New England, eastern New York and the mid-Atlantic states by dawn Sunday.

    Boston expected a low around minus 11 overnight Saturday into Sunday. Portland, Maine, and Burlington, Vermont, could see minus 16 and 19, respectively, the weather service said."

    There is some truth to that. Everyone around here is talking about how mild the winter is because thus far the coldest temperature of the winter has been a mild -14 downtown (-18 at my house). The local saying here is that it isn't even winter until it drops to at least -20. Back east they are calling it winter Armageddon and bomb cyclone.

    Still, even for back east it isn't really a historic cold snap, though daily records will be set. The record lows in the mentioned cities of Burlington and Portland (ME) are -30 and -39 respectively. The Boston readings predicted might be considered historic though, if it really does drop down to -11 (though this seems too cold). The coldest reading there is -18 and it hasn't dropped to -11 for several years.

    For anyone interested, here are some interesting historic cold snaps, some in unexpected locations:

    North Dakota (North Dakota gets cold regularly, but the impressive part was how long the cold snap lasted in 1936).

    Houston, Texas 1895:



    The interesting thing about the Houston snowstorm is that 22" of snow fell in 24 hours. This is more than has ever fallen so quickly in places like Chicago.

    I wonder how much people would freak out now days if it dropped to -30 in SLC or below zero in Florida, or even -11 at St. George and 8 in Las Vegas? When we were in Las Vegas a few days ago everyone was wearing parkas when it was 40 degrees outside. Our kids thought it was hilarious.

    Crazy stuff. Anyone follow the Franklin expedition stuff? That ain't your great grandfathers northwest passage anymore. That they've found both boats is pretty neat.

    Yeah, cold. I flew out of Boston after an early morning drive from Portland Maine on this Tuesday. -15F leaving the house. Frikkin' cold.

    I haven't skied subzero F temps at an open ski area for years. The Mainers don't give it a second though. Kids just don't seem that affected by it...

    ^^^ Sounds like my kids. I'll be bundled up like an Eskimo because it's 20F outside, and they're content to run around with nothing but shorts on.
