Why am I complaining ? Over where I live , our idiotic , city council and mayor do not have the common sense to put into effect, a mandatory law requiring residents to shovel their sidewalks in front of their homes. In Providence , it is mandatory and if you do not do it, you will be fined or jailed. This is for the safety of people who have to walk in this weather. We now have snow drifts piled up that are close to 5 feet high on the sides of our roads because of this and I guarantee that somebody is going to get hurt or worse . We only have 1 car and my wife has to use it to go to her job in Sudbury, Mass. which is a hour away . I only use it on the weekends and at night . I work weekends as a LPN in a Nursing Home and this weather is just getting out of control and the Republicans don't believe in climate change / Global warming ?

What a drag winter is down here in Naples.
Thank God for the heat lamps.

While I no longer claim to be Republican, I can say they don't deny climate change, heck where you live used to be covered by a glacier! The problem comes in when it is blamed on man, man did not cause the ice age to end 10,000 years ago and it is doubtful man is causing any significant change now. Anyway, what we are experiencing here is weather. Weather has cycles, periods of harsh winters and mild winters, heavy rain and drought. Soon the weather in your area will cycle back to mild and Algore will start having “warming” fits again.

Trust me!

I'm in Central Mass, (bout 30 north of Worcester.) this is ridiculous. We've not had a winter like this since I was a kid (I do recall heavy snow winters back in mid 60s)

Sunny today but -6 at 6 am with a wind chill of -24.

We'll have this snow around till april if not may. Oy vhey..

More than 90% of scientists now say they believe that the climate change is anthropogenic. It's no longer a question any more than whether evolution is real.

The question now is whether we've reached the Venus point yet, i.e. whether global warming now is irreversible and we already have doomed ourselves.

It was 0 degrees and a -15 degree wind chill when I woke up this morning. I guess I better break out the shorts and put in the AC back in the window. :P

Yeah, you guys usually get that kind of weather all of the time, don't you? It's like Vermont, as well.

Just try to imagine Florida in July and August, that will warm you up. Trust me, I lived there most of my life until I moved to Newport, RI. :P They think 40 degrees is freezing down there, but then again so did I up until I moved here. One thing for certain, when all of this snow melts it will probably be a big mess.

You kids these days!
Why, back when I was your age, we walked 12 miles to school in the snow,
uphill
both ways!
and carried the coal and firewood home. 8)

90%? You should qualify that as 90% of Proggie type scientists who are looking for a government grant to study it. It is a couple of snow storms, bad ones? for sure, but I wondered how long it would be before the proggies jumped on that old worn out bandwagon.
