Default Thank God for Global Warming!

Woke up this morning and it was foggy and rainy and 50°.

Looked out the cubicle today before lunch at the one window we have in the office and the clouds were parting so I hopped over to accuweather and saw that we're supposed to get up to 66° today so I took my lunch break to go get the bike.

It's a gorgeous afternoon and it sux ***** to be stuck at work but at least I get to ride the bike home tonight.

63 here in NC. Overcast rained off n on for several days so trails are slick but it's still riding weather between the raindrops.

Moved to NC from northern In where the high tomorrow is supposed to be a WHOPPING 3 degrees. DEFINATELY NOT riding weather.

Well snow in places that don't usually get snow is also a global warming phenom. Says the father in law from Houston Texas and my Brother in Law in Cali.

Yes, yes, the whole idea of a man-caused global warming phenomenon is that WEATHER PATTERNS ARE BEING DISRUPTED! Not trying to go on and on about this. . . but, for some reason, SOME think that the LOCAL weather for EVERYONE is going to be hotter. . . NOT! I STILL see people, on this and other fora, who don't seem to get it! Yes, the OVERALL global temperature is rising (something like 10 of the past 14 years are the hottest on record). EXPECT UNUSUAL WEATHER PATTERNS FOREVER MORE!
