Hey, two years without posting. Awesome.
It's been a shitty shitty winter in Minnesota, and I think I understand why winters will be paradoxically worse with global warming.
In December, we got a huge snow. That was the beginning of the end, since the entire northern hemisphere was blanketing in a sun-reflecting, ground-chilling foot or two of snow. And so the winter was much colder.
Now, usually we'd have a thaw to get this. It's global warming, right? Well, unfortunately that means more moisture, and that means a constant supply of snow to fall and keep us real cold. And with the increased amount of moisture comes earlier snow. And since there's more snow when it should be getting warm, it doesn't warm up as fast. So spring races by.
And then we'll be in hundred degree summer.
