We're having the coldest winter, er, spring in 100 years in the great Northwest. There's new snow in the mountain passes and even freak frosty flecks in Seattle's hilliy suburbs.
The way to pass all this off is to say that, meanwhile, there is "humid, near-100 degree swealtering heat (in) New England." However, according to the weather map, daily high temperatures in New England actually are in the 80s. That may seem like "near-100" to some people, I suppose.
Of course, a cool spring, or a cool year, doesn't prove anything. Oh, and neither does a hot one. Projections for the IPCC indicate that temperatures should go up about 0.5 degrees C per decade. In fact, while mean world temperatures have fluctuated yearly, in the past ten years, overall, they've gone nowhere. Alarming, isn't it?
