I heard the other day on that beacon of truth, NPR, that the folks living in Oakland, Cal. would soon be dyeing cause the rising sea level was gonna push toxic chemicals up through the earth. If I lived in Oakland I think I would be worried about other things.
The "globe" has been heating a cooling in cycles since the beginning of time, when ever that was.
Just another platform to "look at me" and waste more money on research.
Follow the money!
It was 14 below zero this morning. Thanks to global warming, it could have been a real bitchl.
I ain’t seen the sun shine since I don’t know when.
Really could use a little global warming in Texas right now....LOL!
EXACTLY
I'v shoveled global warming off my sidewalks 3 times already today. Got about a 2' berm of it next to the sidewalks. Come & get some if you need it!
We were warned,,,
I don't know about yall, but I'm ready for it to globally warm back up. 🥶
Cheer up! When all this snow melts the oceans will rise and flood Obama's new home.😁 Bob
I was tilling in the garden today even though it was wet from all of the rain. It drains so well that it tilled easy. I hope to till one more time before I plant potatos next weekend. Don
Here we are one year closer to the global extinction the left promised. What are down to now? 11 years?
Who knows, they keep changing it.
They've changed it from global warming to "climate change" these days. That way they can include everything including cold weather.
8 degrees this morning in Northeast Arkansas and a couple inches of snow
we don't see single digit weather hardly ever
minus 33 here in northern Mn, won'i get above 0 today
-2 here in southern MO, with a windchill of around -20.
This is the wettest winter we have had that I can remember. It feels like it has rained every day this year.
We're about to have a real mess, I fear. We have a winter storm warning through tomorrow night and temps in the mid 30's.
More snow and a thaw at the same time, yuck! We could get some flooding out of this.
The solar panels here are covered with snow and ice.
They cannot generate enough power to light up their own security light.
must build more solar
Perhaps a few more windmills would help! Well maybe not.
Historic winter storm freezes Texas wind turbines (statesman.com)

”it’s an existential threat to our planet” lol. The only thing that can save us is if we adopt communism. The 10year countdown to doom was started in 1990 when I was in junior high.
It's 25° right now in South central Louisiana, everything is covered in sleet and ice. It will be somewhere in the teens tonight, 30 minute or so drive from the Gulf coast.
Our forecast is calling for 10-12" of global warming through tomorrow morning. My fossil fuel blower will be working overtime around the neighborhood. Is it drought season yet?
Back is 1976 they said we would all run out of oil and die by 1980.
IIRC they were also saying there was going to be massive cooling of the Earth. Sheesh! Maybe they were right!
I have always found it strange that when talking about global warming or global cooling, that they never mention the sun.
Also the volcanoes. Google "The year without a summer" for some interesting reading.
They call this wet, heavy stuff "heart attack snow" for a reason.
You guys be careful out there.
what are you suggesting our own government would lie to us about it ?
no way they only have our best interest in mind / heart when they make laws and give out information that will save us they decide what's best because were too stupid just ask them
oh while your asking check with the native Americans how trusting the US government is best for us
oh by the way in a couple more hours I will shoveling and plowing the latest global warming covering off my drive way and zero or below with the wind chill . but at least we still have electric for now 😮
Yesterday about 10 AM it started raining on our 11" deep global warming. Can't wait to get a look at the river today.
If we get a freeze now the roads will be a real mess!
-14 this morning, so obviously it;s happening.
We didn't get the arctic air until today, but teens are plenty cold enough for me. It'll be single digits this afternoon.
The weather folks missed the mark again, but I'd say I woke up to an easy 8" (giggity) and spent a couple hours shoveling & snow blowing a few houses.
Woke up to -4 it's supposed to get up to high teens maybe 20 by 4 pm.... more snow possible tomorrow but temps higher in the twenty's predicted.... I thought my electric bill was high from the cold last month, probably give me a heart attack seeing the one this month central HVAC running non-stop trying to stay above 69 in the house.... stay safe everyone.
Up here in New York State on the Vermont border, it gets a wee bit chilly during the winter. Why just the other morning, I went out on the porch with a cup of coffee to see how cold it got. I put the cup down and accidently knocked it over.
The coffee came out in one frozen chunk.....
When I picked the chunk of frozen coffee up.....I burned my hand....
It is so cold the flame froze on my candle, so now I must wait until spring when it will thaw enough I can blow it out!
(Stolen from an old Paul Bunyon tale)
Thank goodness I don't live 10 miles north because they had a low of -21 this morning. By comparison I only had a balmy -13. The great lakes moderate the temps and keep Michigan warmer than Wisconsin, at least until they freeze over like now.☹️ Bob
After clearing 8 inches of snow in front of 9 houses yesterday it is at a balmy 24 degrees today.
odd thing about Texas... they are not connected to the power grid. kinda a unit all to their own, with wind, solar, coal and natural gas generation units.....unfortunatly there was no PLAN B as to what will happen is any segment goes down.. and they got caught with their pants down
It turns out none of their power generation system was hardened against winter weather. They have lost generation capability across all sectors of their grid. They even had to shut down nuclear. Not a lot of planning for the worst conditions and probably awarded construction contracts to the lowest bidders. Bob
