SNOW IN MAY!
Coldest day in May here on record, 194 years and the latest snow ever. Arkansas broke records with several inches of the white stuff in May, just never happened since records have been kept!
Global warming? Well, actually it is the effects of weather patterns changing due to the warming, had to grasp I know. :)

This all runs in cycles. There was just a story about how American settlers in Jamestown turned to cannibalism in the early 1600's because there was such a brutal winter and extreme drought. I have also read that 1,000 years ago in England, they were able to grow certain types of grapes for wine, but now it isn't warm enough.
I always laugh when the man-made global warming types say it's the "hottest it's been in 300,000 years". What made it so hot 300,000 years ago? There were no cars, furnaces, factories, etc.
I was reading a book a few years back that was written in the 1970's and they were talking about how the Earth was getting colder and we would all freeze to death. Now they are saying the Earth is getting hotter and the north pole will melt and we will all burn up. I'm not going to worry about it.
