In Michigan where I am at it is a balmy 18* with a wind chill of -5 below zero.As for tommorrow it will be 0 with a wind chill of -15-20 below.

That would ruin any plans for a trip to the beach with our plastic guitars.

What happened to all of this Global Warming Stuff that they are talking about.?????????

What is the temperature where you are at.????

Lanaki ,, Im sorry but you are not allowed to answer this question due to over jealous people who have icesicles hanging from their nostrils right now.GWB

Since you don't want Lanaki to answer, I will...It was a chilly 59 degrees this morning in Honolulu, luckily, I left the heat on last night so the babies wouldn't catch cold :)
Of course, the A/C was back on by 10am and it's about 85 out now.

Today it's about 40, overcast and occasional sprinkles. My wife is visiting friends in Yuma so, of course she has to point out that it's about 80 and very nice by the pool...

Lanaki, I'll jump in here for ya too.

(All temperatures converted to 'American')

It was 70 this morning with an expected top of 85. Unusually cool for this time of year.

Not sure about Global warming, but pool warming is very apparent. Our pool temp is about 85 as well, and I'll be in it as soon as I've posted this reply.

35 right now. Down from a high of 40. The wind made it seem colder.

Some snow in the mountains but none here.

GWB,

Let's all more to Hawaii and take ukulele lessons.

Actually made it up to around 55 today. The warmest its been in a long time. The trouble with Nevada is the swing between the high in low. Its not uncommon to have a 40 degree swing.

High 25, low 10, wind chill -2

Actually, I kind of like it. When I go to the pool tomorrow and watch the snow flies drift by the plate glass windows ... it's nice to be reminded that we're having winter. I almost thought winter was going to breeze past us.

39 degrees, light rain.

But my Mom lives much farther south and east, in Tennessee, and her pipes froze and burst. Messed-up weather all over the US of A.
[Which is extemely screwed-up, cuz I'm not there. I would just crawl under the house and fix 'em!]

GWB, I was born in Buffalo, but moved to Fl when I was 10, so I remember the snow as a "fun thing" as I never had to go to work in it. Now, I take my family to the mountains of Tenn each Christmas time just to try to see some snow. Beleive me, the heat gets just as old as the cold does for you guys. We are still running the AC most every day now.

It hit -9F overnight, but now it's up to -3. It may hit 1 above as the high tomorrow. I'm in the Milwaukee area, so this is on it's way to MI (if it's not already there by now).

Well NYC had its share of snow showers, but with no accummulation, unlike what our cousins had [or currently having] in upstate NY. Right now, it's bright any sunny, with blue skies and puffy white clouds, shaped like cotton balls. Temps, on the other hand, it's cold and extremely windy ... and it's forecasted to have another taste of arctic blast, just like the one that we had last week.

No current accumulations in CNY but Nothern NY is getting their share (check with NorthCountry for an update there) but it is cold here, that's for sure. Floating between 5 - 10 degrees F with a wind chill that drops it below zero easily. So cold it was kinda tough to ski yesterday but you just have to know how to dress right. Another tee-shirt and a larger bottle of hot buttered rum and you're good to go.

Manton (10 miles north of Cadillac) Michigan ... I woke up to find ice formed on the insides of some of my windows. It was 2 degrees, but thank goodness it finally warmed up to a toasty 6! I have been sick for the past 3 days with a bad throat/respiratory thing, taking antibioytics and lots of chicken soup.

But I'm still finding energy to play my Ovations.

64 degrees here in Las Vegas right now. Low in the mid 40s tonight. Not a bit of breeze and clear skies, too. 70s and high 60s all week. You're all invited to Vegas. I will be outside on the balcony with a beer and a guitar after the stair climber this evening.

Sorry, they have been let go.



They have been replaced by the "Vaca Alegres".
The cost savings is significant but some of the "Low rider" models are a little tough to milk...

The Silicone Valley "Valley Cows" were way too high maintenence.

Political correctness dictates you call them Gay Cows or Alternative Lifestyle Cows.

Global warming will eventually bring about an ice age. How it works is simple feedback... the polar ice caps melt, the jetstream snakes violently, sometimes coming from due south (heat waves) while in other parts of the US it comes from due north (getting arctic blasts while the rest of the country bakes; think of a sidewinder's path.) Temperate currents that moderate high latitude continents like Europe fail as the fresh water enters the ocean and kills the currents.

The oceans heat up even more by less ice reflecting the suns' heat into the atmosphere and soaking into the oceans to heat them; this makes for more evaporation, which makes for more precipitation (in the form of TONS of snow when the jetstream is snaking in from the due north).

Eventually, all that ice that used to be at the North Pole, in Antarctica, and in the Greenland ice sheet will melt, evaporate out of the ocean, and fall as snow as far south as the Rio Grande and the Meditteranean in Europe.

Every ice age was precipitated by a rapid increase in global warming. The ice ages that follow global warming are the earth's feedback mechanism to cool the earth and replensish the ice at the poles. Unfortunately, it always tips too far in the opposite direction until the same cycle can ocurr millenia later.

That's the real danger of global warming... what comes afterward, and as ice cores show, often within weeks. (Flash freezing of mammoths in Siberia with temperate undigested buttercup flowers in their bellies... flash frozen where they were eating, for hundreds of thousands of years.)

Bundle up!

A hundred years ago, it was predicted that if things didn't change, NYC would be covered in horse sh!t due to all the animals there. 30 years ago, scientists were proclaiming that the world was going into a new ice age. Now it's global warming.

Don't believe all the so called "scientific" models about what's going to happen. They are guesses, nothing more, nothing less.

...nope...that's why the majority of people are so easily swayed by Government Psychobabble (by both parties- it is an equal opportunity consipracy)... there are only a relative few who have remained protected.... we know who we are.

btw: don't "baste"... basting only acts as a conductor for the thought control waves....
