How will the ecological bomb in the Sandhills of Nebraska affect life in the surrounding areas of the plains and Midwest once a prolonged drought returns the dunes to a miniature Sahara?

I really wouldn’t care one way or the other

In fact, if it gives us hotter summers, I'd welcome it

Yeah definitely, the great planes would be screwed. Canada stands to gain the most under any apocalyptic scenario

It’s very unpredictable. Who knows, the plains may get wetter and the coasts might get drier. Time will tell.

I'll be long dead by the time it happens, if it ever happens at all, so I really don't care.

Not i our life times. FL also will become the same with year round 80's and 90's with no more winters and much less rain year round. Just the last 40 years of my record keeping has seen a huge change in warmer winters and much less rain in the summers on the coast where i live thanks to a displaced high with the axis south of the Tampa area giving us a reverse west windflow most of the summer.

Soon anything below 50f will be rare in FL within 70 years.

Same here.

I’m currently looking out my window seeing a winter wonderland of fresh snow.

It looks nice but......bring on that global warming, please

Hey Europe! Don’t hog it, we need some warmth over here.
