Snow In Florida Today- Yes, You Heard Me Right! (Orlando: average, weather)

BioAdoptMom3 · 02-12-2010, 08:41 PM

The Daytona 500 fans here this weekend aren't too happy either. It rained all day today canceling the truck race a few other small ones, tents and campsites are blowing down in the wind, campfires which they are using to warm themselves are getting put out by the rain and its just cold! I hope the stores have a lot of coats, sweatshirts, etc. to sell this weekend because a lot of people are probably here unprepared.

And this is happening naturally, not because of humans. Al Gore/Global warming is BS.

SOME scientists say this. And some say that global warming is real, as do many educated people. We all know that humans are negatively impacting the earth (smog, ozone damage, polluted lakes, rivers, oceans), so why not do something about it? I don't need to wait and see if some scientists are proved right or wrong to do what is best for the earth and future generations. We can take action right now.

Climate change is a good description. Those of us who are older can definitely see the changes, no matter what state we have lived in. This has to be a phenom of our times, since I cannot remember my parents talking about how the weather was that much different than when they were young.

Hello, what do you think we are doing right now? Do you not see how every product you see on comercials are "going green". We are taking action and we have been for years now. Like an earlier post said, one volcanic erruption puts more pollution in the air than every car, and cars are becoming cleaner and cleaner every day.

But the fact is, climate change is always occuring no matter what. If you look at earths history the climate has changed tremendously throughout it's past, it never stays the same. Earths climate is always changing. Humans or no humans, it's still going to change.

Here is another "factiod" for you that you never see reported.

Ice core samples taken in 2004 showed that the arctic circle had an average temperature of 74 degrees 55 million years ago back when mankind was roasting animals over fire.

What caused that? Dinosaur farts? I have a hunch it's that big bright ball in the sky, but what do I know.

How about another: The earth, right now, is actually COOLING. This is measurable and fact.

Do I like clean air and clean water? Of course. I just don't compost my own poo because I think the world is going to spin off past Pluto.

No snow in Naples, not even close. As I have said many times before, I am not only in the wrong state, I am even in the wrong PART of the state.

However, in a few days I will only be a few hours south of Canada, so I will have my snow.

BioAdoptMom3 · 02-13-2010, 06:07 PM

Depends upon where in Canada you are going. Vancouver had to ship in fake snow and tomorrow's high temp there is supposed to be about 5 degrees cooler than it is here at the start of the Daytona 500! I am sure the eastern part of Canada is much colder though, like the eastern half of the US.
