Global Warming Chills Out In 2010

I don't know how it will be in other parts of the country, but we are in for a couple of quite cool weeks here in South Florida as we start off 2010. Since we are normally warmer than any other place in the country during this time of year, I can only assume it's going to be quite cold elsewhere.

If only we didn't have that global warming.

Tomorrow we are projected to get to 80. Then it's all downhill. After a 78 on Saturday, the temps are all in the 60s for daytime highs for the next two weeks (not counting January 12 at 70) - maybe even longer, but that's as far as the 15 day forecast extends.

Our lows are in the 40s for that entire period. I don't remember the last time we had this extent of a cool snap. It's that stupid global warming.

That is why they've changed the term to Climate Change.  Then they can be right no matter which way it goes, and all we'll have to do is pay the tax for it!

Ron,

Yes, but climate change from when or what to what? Thanks. :)

Steve, I know what you mean. We're facing a colder stretch than we have had ofr a long time... if it weren't for all those inconsiderate people driving cars, obviously it would be a lot cooler :)

Steve--We have been bouncing up and down above and below average all year long. Today we were normal at a balmy 23 degrees...heading for single digit highs for the next two days. I'll take your "cold" weather anyday!

Shoshana,

At least it's warmer here than elsewhere. :)

Steve - I guess liberals have found it easier to control the news more so than the weather.

Steve. When Northerner visit this time of year, they are in flip flops and tank tops and the locals are in turtlenecks and fleece!  Willard Scott said it was going to be a perfect eighty the other day.  Forty in the morning and forty at night!  BBRRRRRRR I hate it when it plummets to seventy with one of our "cold snaps". LOL

We are already having a very cold winter up here in Idaho. Global stupidity maybe, but not warming.

Posted by Kevin Robinson House Buying Guy over 2 years ago

Yes - Having a cold winter doesn't seem to change Obama and Gore's mind on global warming....hmmm

When will these libs realize it.  Maybe man does contribute a teeny weeny bit, maybe he doesn't.  The sun is the main factor for temperatures on earth.  Temps fluctuate constantly based on the sun's position in the sky, the time of day, the time of year, and all sorts of other weather patterns.  Even little kids understand that.

Steve, here in Colorado, two years ago we had the coldest winter in over 100 yrs. I'm not sure how this year will end up, but I think this year has been colder.

JP,

Without question. Thanks, :)

Kevin,

And just at how much energy was used to have all those countries go to Denmark to debate something that doesn't even exist. :)

Nicholas,

Gore I can understand. He's making too much money from this hoax. :)

Rob,

Yes, but that doesn't sell votes. :)

Jon,

We are reportedly in a cool snap of a few years duration. :)

Steve - In the land of Gore (Nashville), we have had cold nasty weather, just like always, or at least always for my lifetime. If Al was right, i wouldn't need heat in my house or a coat to wear.

Posted by Larry Brewer Nashville Real Estate (Benchmark Realty LLc) over 2 years ago

Larry,

Just send the bills to him. :)

Steve- I cant wait for global warming to kick in!  I want to grow orange trees in the yard!

Taxes for climate change makes about as much sense as paying the witch doctor to get rain.

Larry,

I'm wearing a jacket tonight due to global warming. :)

Will,

Taxes don't have to make sense. :)
