At least 60 people have died across Europe during the current cold snap, as snow plagued transport in Britain on Friday and serious flooding prompted mass evacuations in the Balkans.

Seventeen people died in Central Europe in the last 24 hours from the cold, bringing the total this week to 45. A further 11 died in Russia, plus three in France and one in Germany, according to local authorities.

At least 30 people, mainly homeless men, have died in Poland in the past week, and temperatures dropped to minus 15 degrees Celsius (five degrees Fahrenheit) overnight.

Temperatures plunged to minus 20 degrees Celsius (minus four Fahrenheit) in Braemar, Scotland, while Britain struggled to get back to its feet after days of transport chaos.

A friend went on a hunting trip to Montana from San Diego. Getting up there was ok, weather was so bad no hunting. Trip back was 4 wheel drive, no plows, cops or? What should have been a 1 day trip became a 4 day white knuckle E ticket ride. They just got back yesterday, and left early.

Notice they call it a ‘cold snap’ rather than dig into Earth science and discover a phenom known as ‘global cooling.’

“Conditions like this can only be caused by one thing — warm weather”

Yes, i have heard that these sudden and un-explained “cold snaps” are but a symptom of Global Warming.

Things are starting to get bad folks.....
