“By the summer, there were reports of starving people in the fields “eating grass like sheep.”

That would be a sight to see.

You can find that today, unfortunately, in Zimbabwe.

Don’t forget the year 1816 in America, dubbed “the year of two winters”, or “eighteen hundred and froze-to-death”, when there was snow in June and a killing frost in July and August.

The cause? An eruption of the Krakatoa volcano in Malaya, spewing enough ash to blot out the warming influence of the sun.

Anyone remember Mount Pinatubo in the Philippines in 1986?
