Global warming falls 8 inches deep on Scotland
2013-05-25
The summer solstice is only 28 days away, but in parts of Scotland yesterday, it was like winter had never left, as people awoke to a blanket of snow.

At a time of year when thoughts should be turning to sunscreen and barbeques, a blast of wintry weather swept in from the Arctic, bringing blizzards and icy temperatures to the North-east. Drifting snow closed two roads, and many more were only passable with care.

#4  But you see - this is exactly what the global warming, er - climate change "experts" predicted: we would have weird weather. And it would all be the fault of global warming climate change.
Which of course is caused by those evil humans.

#3  One damn good volcanic blow and it'll be another Year without Summer. Major drop in crop intake. Then the plebes will probably hang anyone on site that mentions Gerbil Worming.

#2  Thank goodness no snow here (Central Virginia), but it was 58 degrees F yesterday on my deck at lunchtime, and raining and windy.

I went out and covered my tomatoes last evening - noticed the storm door glass in the kitchen was fogging up while I was washing the supper dishes. Had to take the cat to the vet for shots this morning, and the vet told me that there had been several reports of frost overnight around the area . I'll probably cover them again tonight just to be sure.

WHERE THE HELL'S THAT GLOWBULL WARMING THEY KEEP PROMISING US? :-(

After flooding, more rain, some snow, in the forecast

“I carried bags of grain and everything else, and I’m not a farmer, so I know nothing about farming,” Csele recalled. “You know, they gave me a bridle. I said, ‘Well, I don’t know what to do with a horse; which end does this go on?’”
