Global warming or climate change, the right-wingers' refusal to understand either term is rooted in the same brainwashing the makes them believe in Reaganomics, trickle down, and the wonderful benefits we all share in with unregulated free market capitalism.Correct. Although the proper term is Climate Change.I guess it's all because of Global Warming ------
We got the snow. Snowed all day, as we added another 5 inches or so. Gave me an excuse to break out the Northface ski ware since I didn't go skiing this season. Worked outside off and on all day, warm as toast. Not like the April blizzard I got to see on the Sandia Crest last time I visited your stated for a couple of weeks.That’s par for the course in MA. You people are soft....he heYep. Was Zero here this morning with absolutely no melt as it only got up to 12 Deg. Another 3 to 6 inches snow expected.Looking like Winter out there.....stay warm and stay safe!
I KID!!
Yea...it’s going to get cold in winter....what a shocking development.Global warming or climate change, the right-wingers' refusal to understand either term is rooted in the same brainwashing the makes them believe in Reaganomics, trickle down, and the wonderful benefits we all share in with unregulated free market capitalism.Correct. Although the proper term is Climate Change.I guess it's all because of Global Warming ------
In other words, the right-wing nuts believe every GOP fairytale they're told, but all facts must be denied or ignored.

We know what they are called: frauds.They’re called climatologists. If you don’t know what that is, they’re scientists.LOL@"proper term"Correct. Although the proper term is Climate Change.I guess it's all because of Global Warming ------
Point me at the guy who decides these things!
Courtesy of geo-engineering....weather modification programs for full spectrum dominance.Looking like Winter out there.....stay warm and stay safe!
IPCC scientists that work at the leisure of their paymasters to push "Global Warming" and paid for by the elites that started the Club of Rome and own the U.N????? THOSE scientists??????They’re called climatologists. If you don’t know what that is, they’re scientists.LOL@"proper term"Correct.

Where are you again?Yep. Was Zero here this morning with absolutely no melt as it only got up to 12 Deg. Another 3 to 6 inches snow expected.Looking like Winter out there.....stay warm and stay safe!
Well, sure you do. Before any good storm ('specially one featuring tornados) you have to go to the store and get toilet paper, chocolate and beer.I agree..it's a mindset more than it is anything else.OK. I have now assessed the situation. I think there are a few things people in the south and Midwest/south need to take into consideration. This could be happening from here on out every year. The first time I encountered it was maybe 10 years ago in Chicagoland. Then it repeated. But, we had a couple of things that I am not seeing where I'm at now. First of all we already had our gear hats, gloves etc. snow blowers and bags of salt that had been purchased in September when they were on sale.
When it snows the trucks are already on the road. They have salt and, now, beet juice. Ya need massive trucks on the roads. They are clearing the city streets AND the Interstates AND the county roads. Not the pick up trucks with the shovel on the front. Those guys come to shovel off the drive way, parking lot and what have you. I mention that because there is a town that actually had that on the city streets. The city I live in apparently doesn't do anything on my street so that might have been alright. Also, the water pipes were wrapped under the house so they didn't freeze and burst.
If we are going to do this shit there is a better way.
Of course, it all comes down to money..and Oklahoma and Texas are not going to spend like that..unless this keeps happening.
Individuals can make their lives much easier though. Wrap those pipes, have a Genny, spend on insulation--keep a food stash...a week minimum--same with prescription meds.
In extremis, you can cordon off a room with blankets...and create a warm zone.
No..you don't need that 6 cases of TP...LOL~
whoops; wrong guy. It's about 80oF here.Where are you again?Yep. Was Zero here this morning with absolutely no melt as it only got up to 12 Deg. Another 3 to 6 inches snow expected.Looking like Winter out there.....stay warm and stay safe!
Good choices.Well, sure you do. Before any good storm ('specially one featuring tornados) you have to go to the store and get toilet paper, chocolate and beer.
Yep. Everyone has to resist the urge to jump in their cars to drive down the interstate when a storm with the possibility of tornados is forecast. The best chocolate, beer and toilet paper is 20 miles away.Good choices.Well, sure you do. Before any good storm ('specially one featuring tornados) you have to go to the store and get toilet paper, chocolate and beer.
I don't mind a few beers every now and then but I'm a Port and Cognac chap....ALWAYS have a good supply. I hide it when the wife wants to make trifles.Well, sure you do.

It does come down to money. I think first we need to know if we are going to do this on a repeat.
I commuted into Hartford, Connecticut for 13 years. Our office closed maybe three times, when the governor shut the roads down completely. So I made that rush hour commute in snowstorms many times. What was a 15-20 minute drive on Sunday mornings took about 45 in good weather during rush hour traffic, but when it snowed, it could take forever. It NEVER failed that with the falling of the first few flakes, some cheerful citizen would jump in their old heap with bald tires and barrel out onto I 91, get in a wreck, and close at least one lane for an hour. It NEVER failed.Yep. Everyone has to resist the urge to jump in their cars to drive down the interstate when a storm with the possibility of tornados is forecast.

SOK; it's just a sweet grog without character. It'd make a nice trifle though. It is based on cognac but frankly if a cognac is any good it needs nothing added.Grand Marinier is my favorite for truffles.I don't mind a few beers every now and then but I'm a Port and Cognac chap....ALWAYS have a good supply.

I've never been to Connecticut. Never a good plan to speed but, I have had some good folks tell me that if you drive top slow you can also cause a wreck. Those people have four wheel drives.I commuted into Hartford, Connecticut for 13 years. Our office closed maybe three times, when the governor shut the roads down completely. So I made that rush hour commute in snowstorms many times.

Most Connecticut drivers are good drivers. The bad ones are dead. But they drive very fast. Not a good plan in snow and ice, even if you are in a beemer.
Jackson, TNWhere are you again?Yep. Was Zero here this morning with absolutely no melt as it only got up to 12 Deg. Another 3 to 6 inches snow expected.Looking like Winter out there.....stay warm and stay safe!
