Coldest winter in 15 years?
Seems so. 94-95 was the last winter I remember being like this. 95-96 had more snow, but not as cold. We had a pretty cold one about 5-6 years ago, but no single digit temps. Any comments?

Like Sunday when it hit 62, the next few days beginning with Saturday it will hover around the 60 degree mark. |

Sigh. I hope the global warming comments are meant as jokes. Do we have to explain again and again and again and again about how that works - about how the earth as a whole can be warming (hence the word "Global" in global warming) but parts can be colder than ever because as it warms it throws off the currents, etc?
Must I? Really?  |

Please, please, there are divided opinions, very divided opinions on so-called global warming. It is not a proven fact at all, contrary to some ideas. Probably better discussed on another forum. |

Indeed, I agree this is not the best place to discuss global warming. It is not nice to use phrases like "so-called" in your posts.

I just hate that in any of the TN forums, whenever cold temps are mentioned (in the WINTER), the idiots bring in "Where the heck is global warming, eh!?!??"
But when posts are made commenting on the sweltering weather (in the SUMMER), nobody ever says anything like "here's your damn global warming!"

Sorry, your "global" warming has moved to Wyoming for a few days, we've been in the 50's.  Oh, by the way it was "global cooling" last week when we had over 12" of snow and it cost our city $800,000 to clean up the mess.  If they would have just waited a few days the global warming would have melted it and they could have sheltered more of our homeless with the money.  |
