Tis the Season for Holy Crap It's Cold!

About a decade ago we would have up to a week of temperatures in the -10 to -20 degree range. In the last 5 years it has been more like -10s. This year distinguishes itself by starting November with 60 degree days and ending it in the single digits. The good news is that I can stop hearing how unseasonably cold it is for November after today.

While it sucks for me, this weather is probably closer to what I remember from the 1980s winters. The predictions (which I don't believe anyway) point to this being a cold winter, as opposed to all the hot humid Rome NY winters. I will say that 2012 ended almost snow free and 2013 was at least reasonable. This almost all goes against global warming hysteria. Frankly, global warming could only help this region which was likely responsible for millions of Native American deaths before America made them rich enough to build heated casinos.
