Where did you hear that prediction!! I need something to get me through these unbearable days of 100 degrees plus! I think it’s been 67 or more straight days and my patience is wearing thin! Last year we didn’t have much of a winter in Central Texas either so I’m hoping and praying.

It hasn’t been that way in Oklahoma... LOL... hot as usual... although it’s “not so hot” right now... just in the 80s instead of in the 90s... :-)

Here in SE Wisconsin, we had about 3 or 4 days of summer. Maybe one day in the 90’s. I don’t like it super hot, but I do enjoy some summer weather!

Gore's scam is going to end and he knows it, probably from the beginning. He's just trying to keep it going as long as possible to rake in as much money as he can.

No doubt. The weather for last two Saturday's would have been perfect for some Big Ten Football. :}

Yeah, I too will believe it when I see it.

Part 1: Professor Ian Plimer Interviewed by Brian Carlton; Heaven and Earth

Dennis Prager had Professor Ian Climer on for an hour.

Earth has warmed and cooled three times since the eighteen hundreds; now cooling.

Last night's state-wide AM announced the low was fifteen degrees below normal--my little contribution.

Plimer notes wheat and beef and wine were raised on Greenland.

Says main contributor of carbon dioxide is volcanic activity. Currently at point oh-three-etcetera, not dangerous until five percent, not likely.

The major smear on Plimer from the Left (who won't debate this award-winner) is the "no science there" lie.

Prager whips the book open to a page in the three hundreds and reads off a handful of footnotes of papers and authors--gasp: science.

All in all a very convincing arguer.

Knocked down one shrieking fairy caller who claimed, "B-but how can you go against NASA?"

Plimer replied to the effect there are tens of thousands on his side, fifteen hundred on the other (Gore's) but it's not numbers.

He says we can show vastly higher levels in past, from geologic record, sediment, ice cores.

That during five of six ice ages the carbon dioxide was much higher.

I think Al Gore secretly gets a chill up his leg as the earth cools, but he compensates by eating another bag of Cheet-O's.

Building up a dangerous concentration of outhouse gas. . . .

I live in the same area and if one needs any proof that this has been an unusual summer, check your tomato production.

This has been the worst in memory. One can argue 1 or 2 days of cold weather or hot weather in a season and discount the effects.

But tomatoes need HOT weather to produce and we are down 20-25%. Which is not biggie. Our tomato crop is only exceeded by the zucchinis. :>)

We have had 3 days over 90 this year. In in May and 2 this month. We have had days that were so chilly a sweater was required in June/July. Nobody can go swimming.

I’m not that far from you in Arkansas. It has been a very mild summer. We only had a couple tripple digit days in early July. I remember back in 2000 when I lived in Oklahoma, we had 90 days of 90+ degrees.

We here in South Texas must be on the other side of the line of demarcation.
67 100+ days. 2 days away from the all-time record. (since 1854)

Seattle set an all-time record of 103 last month.

So South Jersey is hotter than South Carolina? That sounds doubtful, we have had some long hot spells but I don’t remember twenty days in a row above 100. Some summers we don’t get ANY one hundred and over days. I think we may have had one or two that hit around 100 this summer.

They are predicting a cold winter for Texas? I hadn’t heard that! It can’t come soon enough for me. I have stayed in my a/c as much as possible, this summer has been brutal! We have to listen to the rest of the country complain about the cold, it’s been awful!

We’re in central PA, I never saw it so cold in a mid-Atlantic state in summer, and my older acquaintances (some over 80) say they never did either.
We went to the Jersey shore 3 or 4 times, mostly a big waste of time. Cold, rain, and more rain. And over there, when it rains, it rains all day. Not like here in PA, where it’s rain one minute and sun the next.
I think I put away the sweaters in June and never did turn on the A/C in the house.
Oh well. It was a good summer for writing novels.

It just doesn’t make sense. Because it’s getting warmer, it’s getting colder? Where’s the logic?
