At present it is 9 degrees Fahrenheit here in the Richmond area. I wish Global Warming was actually happening, instead of being just leftwinger propaganda. Yes, I know the recent Polar Vortexes are just weather, not climate. But even the UN's IPCC (International Panel of Climate Change) recently had to admit that Global Warming stopped 16 years ago.
Some of y'all here are old enough to remember that in the mid-1970s the Climate Scientists were predicting that another Ice Age was starting. For you younger guys, check the archives of Time magazine and Newsweek magazine, if you don't believe me. You could also Google-search terms such as the "Medieval Warming Period" (it was very important to the Viking Settlements in Greenland) and "Little Ice Age" and "Maunder Minimum." In actual fact, Science shows the earth is indeed more than a little overdue for its next Ice Age. So, y'all do your best to get acclimated to the frigid temperatures you are experiencing now.
