Washington Post ^ | July 10

First Global warming meant heat— hot summers, mild winters.

Then Global warming meant extremes—Hot summers, very cold winters.

Now global warming means very cold winters, and cool summers?

He does tend to have a “chilling” effect, doesn’t he? I think it’s because his bulk blocks out a lot of sunlight.

"It’s not at all clear what this means or what, if anything, it portends."

Here in Ohio it means normal vicissitudes of weather and portends a nice cool break from the usual July heat.

No less, no more. We've seen it here before.

It's called climate change... better known as seasons.

Pretty nippy up there for July, though some Michigan Yoopers claim they only have two seasons, Winter and Tough Sledding.

Indeed we have. A few years ago we had temps that never made it out of the high sixties for afternoon highs the last two weeks in July. It was heavenly.

Scientists have it rough now days. They have to beg for their food by coming up with the most convoluted explanations for what’s happening. The hockey stick has turned into a fiery hoop for them to jump through.
