    Okay; it's a mix of rain and snow; and the snow is not sticking to any surface. But, hey. We usually don't get any snowflakes until mid November around here.

    October 15. This is the earliest snow that I can ever remember around here (northern suburbs of New York City).

    I guess the cap and trade bill is working already! And it hasn't even been passed yet. 😉

    Better turn down the heat though. That cap and trade bill ain't free.

    This is incredible. This is no longer a mix. It's a full fledged snow. I never remember seeing a snowstorm while the leaves are still on the deciduous trees. The snow against the backdrop of reds, yellows and golds of the autumn leaves is really beautiful.

    Temps right now are close to 30 degrees below average!

    You should spend some time in Chicago then 🙂

    Fortunately we haven't gotten any snow yet, but it's been a crappy year so far so I don't expect fall/winter to be any different.

    After about 10 years of cap and trade they will probably artifically induce an ice age. Of course, they will have to then tax companies for not putting out enough CO2 to counter this phenomenon.

    Brilliant!!

    What exactly are you satirizing here? Yourself? The wider 'denier' movement's hysterical "predictions"?
