OK, there is more CO2 today in the atmosphere than in past years.

Polar vortex could bring deadly winter storms and coldest weather in more than a decade to US​


By Patrick Pester
published yesterday
An expanding polar vortex is expected to lower temperatures across the eastern half of the U.S., with the potential for record-breaking cold in January.

I will later post the link needed.

I have long argued that this small of a temperature does not matter. There is no reason or purpose to get alarmed. Dr. Richard Lindzen has said this over and over to audiences.

We have had recent very cold winters. CA has had a tough time dealing with the snow. Reservoirs are full.
Think as to why we have had cold winters these past Winters.

From article:

Dangerously cold weather from the Arctic is forecast to hit the U.S. next week, with potentially record-breaking low temperatures expected in some areas, analysts warn.



The Arctic blast is being driven by large-scale pressure changes and a shift in the polar vortex, according to the weather website Severe Weather Europe. It will bring the coldest air of the season so far to millions of Americans, with dangerous wind chills likely across the southeastern U.S., while much of the Appalachians, Ohio Valley, Mid-Atlantic, Great Lakes and northeastern U.S. could see heavy snowfall and significant travel disruptions, according to the National Weather Service.



Temperatures are expected to drop as low as 30 degrees Fahrenheit (17 degrees Celsius) below the average for this time of year, with the potential for sub-freezing temperatures as far south as the Gulf Coast and Florida Peninsula. It could get so cold in Florida that iguanas fall out of the trees, according to CNN Weather. Iguanas go into a temporary state of paralysis when they get too cold, so they can't hold onto tree branches.

So all your fear of global warming can go back to sleep.
Will you need to purchase winter gear, clothes, shovels, snow blowers and more?

I feel really bad about using natural gas and nuclear sourced electricity to heat my home.

Please forgive me Gaia.
 
Supposedly in the 20s and 30s here where I am next week, then back into the 60s the week after.

Thats a normal Texas winter.

LOL....That's what i looked like a few minutes ago when a brief snow squall came up.....Dropped a half inch and was gone.

We are supposed to get 7-8" over Sunday night and into Monday....Depending on the breaks.

My loins are girded.

Oh good. I have two chubby wiener dogs that don't like to take their dumps out in the cold.

i can relate......

wearing 3" of carharts with 2" of junk is somewhat problematic......~S~
 
I have high pressure so the jet stream is missing the area, 40 and pouring down rain........again
 
This isn't bad. Back in the 1970's in central Wisconsin we had three weeks where the temperature never got up to zero, night or day.
 
I just finished gassing up/testing the snowblowers and positioned/gassed-up the 4-Wheeler w/plow.....My body is ready. ;)

I prefer the snowblowers for the driveways (I have two) but the town's Mad Max snowplow driver piles everything up on my side of the street....Hence the snowplow to "bust out".

If we get the 7-8" they are calling for I'll have a 4' wall of snow in front of the house. I don't sweat it, the plow makes short work of it and is sorta fun. :)

I manage a large apartment building with a long sidewalk and three parking lots. We have a plow service, but I have to do cutting and cleaning up with shovel and snowthrower. I love it. The more snow the better. :)

I was thinking of getting a plow for the F-150 but the view was not worth the climb. At least 4K and I'd not get the year round use of the 4-wheeler to tool about my river property so I bought a lightly used '08 Polaris 500 ATP w/plow for $3300. It only had 192 hours on it and was garage kept.

I garage keep all my equipment; they last so much longer that way than in a shed that is not temperature controlled.....Just buy quality and keep them PMed as they should be.....I have a lawn tractor I bought in '93 and it still runs like new.

My 4-wheeler is sort of like this guy's except it has a dump bed instead a rear rack and my plow controls are on the handlebars.



It has plenty of ass for pushing snow around the house.

I was thinking about asking the boss to get me a 4-wheeler with a plow, but I have so much cutting between and behind the vehicles that its usefulness would be pretty limited. It would be fun though.
 
The older I get the more I love the extreme cold. Bring it on. I don't have many years left. 50 below let's go!
 
I was stationed in the tropics for two years. lowest temp was 82ºF ... came home in February and ... yeah ... sub-zero for two solid weeks ... coldest I've ever been ...

It's YOUR fault is snows where you live ... stop blaming global warming and maybe look at your own wrong decisions ...
