"We need to realize there is a difference between the terms weather and climate. In climate terms, statistics show tempertures are slowly rising."

True, we are almost back to the mean temps of the middle ages.

Where's my government weather??? Obama promised sunny skies and lower sea levels!

At least we can now say we had Fall. It just happened to be in the middle of November. Bring on the chilly weather for a few months, then back to the miserable heat/humidity. Love this weather now!!

Why is it that people always complain when they don't get the weather exactly right? It's called a forecast for a reason. Weather is not a complete, exact science folks. In theory yes but in application it isn't. Too many variables involved for them to get it right every time.

Its matters not one whit how many believe in something. No one else but Gov. can put in place the changes to protect ourselves......

...I disagree. It takes a societal shift in thinking before big change can happen. Best example is smoking. It used to be fashionable to smoke....look at all the old movies. Gradually, over time, more and more people began to see smoking as bad. It has taken close to 50 years, but now society views smokers as the outsiders now. They are shunned. You could not have successfully passed a law back then limiting smoking like it is limited now. The overall perception had to evolve. Recycling is similar. Recyclers only 25 years ago were viewed as oddballs.....now it is a hot and growing industry. The "green" movement didn't happen overnight, it has been growing for decades. Big changes like this cannot be be forced on people, at least not in a "free" country.......

It was lovely on Saturday for the Wake forest game, hoping for a repeat for Boston College after Thanksgiving. Go Pack!

"There are a lot of people who believe that it is impossible for mankind to influence the climate. But there are even more that believe every notable weather event is a sure sign that we must immediately put our lives under the total control of government masterminds. I am skeptical of both sides."

reality is not a democracy. Its matters not one whit how many believe in something. No one else but Gov. can put in place the changes to protect ourselves......

I notice that the weather folk are jacking the high temp. up a little every hour this morning. Hum, struggling on the forecast again, are we? Won,t be long and they will forecast a high of 80!

We might get the beginnings of a Nor'easter around the 19th. Media is not reporting this yet. As of now 60% chance.

I just hope we get a BIG snow this year

simplelogic-Thank you! I knew I needed more coffee.
