To Al Gore,
You suck, and you are a hustling, idiot.

Forecasters: S. Florida Winter Among Coldest Ever
Record Low Average Temperatures Set For Miami Beach, West Palm Beach, Naples
Cooler Than Normal Temps, Higher Rainfall Expected In April\
A viewer from Hialeah sent in this picture and wrote the word 'ICE' on top of her daughter's car, just one of the many indicators of a colder-than-normal winter in South Florida
Unless you spent this winter somewhere else, you know it was chilly, at least by South Florida standards. Now, with the data in, the National Weather Service has made it official. The first 3 months of the year were the coldest ever reported in Miami Beach, Naples, and West Palm Beach, and was among the coldest winters ever for Ft. Lauderdale and Miami.
That information was included in an analysis of winter weather patterns conducted by the National Weather Service weather forecast office in Miami.
Forecasters sat March set record cold readings for Miami Beach, which was 5.8 degrees colder than normal, on average, and for Naples, where the average temperature was almost a degree colder than the previous record.
Forecasters say, overall, there were only a handful of days where temperatures were above normal in South Florida.
Miami temperatures averaged almost 5 degrees below normal, making the January-March period the 9th coldest ever, while Ft. Lauderdale had it's 4th coldest period ever.
While the cold weather of winter appears to be over, that doesn't mean South Florida won't continue to see cooler-than-normal temperatures, according to the National Weather Service.

I know you members up North are still laughing,......but I'm just trying to put the Global Warming Scam in perspective...
Hey I never used to wear long sleeve T-Shirts in March,.... 8)

After one of the coldest winters on record here in Minnesota we had the 5th warmest March ever. The interesting thing is the warmest March's occurred in the mid to late 1800's. More proof of global warming! ;D
-
We have record highs in the 80s here. It was a mild winter too. It feels like global warming to me. Too bad we can't send some heat down to you.
-
Our February was the 7th coldest in recorded history, and the coldest since 1978.
86 degrees here today....summer is upon us.
We only have two seasons: Winter (for 2 months) and Summer (for the other 10). ;D ;D
-
Tampabay had the coldest winter ever, period!
-
We had a record 12.5 inches of SNOW in DALLAS! AND IT SNOWED AGAIN ON MARCH 20th! March isn't supposed to have snow!
Global Warming = SNOW?!? ???

It doesn't matter what your weather is on any given day - it's all due to global warming!
The science is settled. And the data cooked and the models rigged, but the science is settled!
Got it? ? ? ?

I'm cornfused ???
The earth is turning into a freakin sauna, and we are all going to roast to death ???
We haven't had a real winter in how many years ???
Someone please send Mr's Gore's rocket scientists over to my place so they can explain to me why I have an acre of frost boil that used to be my driveway!
I was informed today that I have a semi coming in on Monday morning to pick up half a load of pork ... 75 head of 270 pounders.
I tried leveling the ruts they left last week when they took out 20 head with a pickup, and the tractor just made things worse. After giving up I put the tractor away and walked across ... the waterbed that used to be solid crushed rock :o Honestly, it was like walking on a six inch think piece of firm foam rubber. There has got to be one H**L of a chunk of ice within a foot of the surface out there ... And it has been sunny, breezy, above freezing nights for a week and a half, and in the upper 60's to as high as 75 during the day for two weeks :-\
Global warming my A**!!!

Mike, you have to come to terms with it......it's all in your imagination.
It's an illusion! Really! No Kidding! Honest!
Ask NASA!

Yep, cooked data. Guess where the thermometers they are currently relying on to get the temps are located - in cities, at airports, etc.
In other words, HEAT SINKS. Concrete jungles, over macadam at the airports, etc. I remember reading about the change of locations of the thermometers in the mid 80s. - away from greener areas to 'more easily accessible areas.'
I'm also old enough to remember my grade school teachers (early 70s) preaching at me about us heading into the next ice age shortly, how acid rain was going to kill every lake and all our lawns by 2000, and how the fuel supplies would also be exhausted around that time.

You must be one of those right wing Extremist racists if you remember that 30 years ago they were saying exactly the opposite of what Fat Albert says now.
(I give FQ crap about this but I can't resist ;D )

You might also remember the scandal about "decorator colored toilet paper". The Tree Hugers of that era shamed everyone into using white paper because the dyes used to color the paper was poisoning the water supply. After everyone started using only white, they found the water quality actually declined due to the bleach used to make the paper white.
Also, you will recall that Veggies and Fish were full of Goodness...except for fish like salmon, cat fish, and the other fish that were full of fat. Same with the veggies...stay away from broccoli, cauliflower, brussels sprouts, cabbage cause, in a betrayal to all things good, those veggies were loaded with fat.
Now, of course, those are the fish and veggies very highly recommended because of the very beneficial effects of the fats they contain.
Seems like lots of folks need to have a "cause" for some reason.

FIFY
Technically cities produce heat, a heat sink absorbs and eliminates heat. But your point is right on the money.

Well ...
The semi arrived at 7:15 AM, and an hour and a half later he still isn't backed up to the barn. Empty trailer was a great idea, because the trailer axles are fine. However, all three tractor axles are sitting on the gravel, and the trailer is still twenty feet from the chute. They have one field tractor here and just left with the pickup - my guess is to get another tractor.
I'm going back to work. Lots of hard pulling with chains in the mud brings back memories I'd prefer to leave lost :'(

I've always taken with a grain of salt doom and gloom claims made by people who stand to make millions or even billions of dollars if the sheeple buy into their bullshit.
