Will our Tweeter-In-Chief call today's record high temperature in Western NY an example of Global Warming?

Our sixth graduate will cluck and crow about how he’s smarter than all the scientists and generals, and members of Congress.

He is singularly the smartest person he knows !! Just ask him.

President Trump will not likely feel the need to tweet about a cold mass that just moved westward.

The temperature got up to nearly +50ºF here in Tacoma two days ago and now (after 2 pm, Feb 4, 2019) it warmed up to +26ºF from +20ºF early this morning.

Even if human’s are able to eventually control man-caused climate disruption, we will not likely be able to control natural climate changes. Such as another ice age with massive glaciers that will once again cover a large parts of N. America, Europe Russia, etc. Glad that I won’t be around to that catastrophe.

Let’s just say I hope he is starting to feel the heat.

It’s supposed to hit 65 here at some point. We haven’t had a decent snow in years.

The western NY Heat wave is offset by snow on the hills in the SF Bay Area. Interstate 80 is closed for a hundred miles from just outside Auburn CA to the Nevada border. Donner Summit has received 3 ft of snow on top of a 12 foot base.

Snowed just a couple inches yesterday but it’s 18 degrees F in Tacoma this morning. Snowed a lot yesterday in Olympia. Most of the schools were closed and no garbage pick up.

It’s just blah here. Hardly cold at all, no snow, some drizzle. It’s nothing like it’s supposed to be. Hard to enjoy spring when fall never left.

@Dutchess_III I love weather like yours. I call it “pea soup” weather and “free outside air conditioning”. Persistent drizzle and cloud cover (helps to protect against the sun’s harmful rays. Perfect for working hard or racing. As long as the precipitation is liquid it is not too cold for my favorite outdoor activity (outrigger canoe paddling).

I love Tacoma for it’s long Fall that start in September and ends in May. There’s usually a few days of Winter in there somewhere. We don’t get much of a Spring or Summer. OK with me.

I’m bummed now with the ice and snow. Snow should stay up in the mountains where it belongs. Haven’t paddled in two days with the temp still in the 20’s *F. Tomorrow is looking good as the temperature is suppose to get up into the 30’s*F.

I’ve been there at different times of the year. I have a boat load of family there @gondwanalon. You guys have two seasons: Rainy and Not Rainy! And sometimes it snows. And oh man, that’s beautiful country to begin with. Snow makes it breathtaking.

@Dutchess_III Good quality of life. Clean water and pure air. Even the worst of weather here in Tacoma is realatively mild. Nothing like the winters of the North East U.S.. I’ve lived in Tacoma for 25 years and the temperature very rarely dips into the plus teens (degrees F) and only on two occasions it very breafly hit +10 degrees F. Most of the time the temps bounce around in the +30’s and +40’s degrees F though Fall, Winter and Spring months. Great place to do about anything in the outdoors especially canoe paddling.

I know.

It was 13 degrees F here in Tacoma this morning. Sure wish that global warming wasn’t quite so cold. HA!
