You're not watching that for the weather.  ;D

The weather hasn't been the same in Atlanta since Dagmar Midcap moved out west.

Mike.  That's just wrong to live somewhere that is that cold.

Yeah, that's too cold even for me. A high of 10 below there tomorrow and 11 above here, which is 20 degrees colder than average. It should barely be freezing here and only a little lower where Mike is. The wind chill tonight is supposed to be 10-15 below for me and 25-45 below for him. What the h***?  :o 

ETA: We had about another 1/4" of snow that was I think was a 10 or 20% chance to fall. The total for 3 days looks like slightly more than an inch.

Global warming.  Of course.  It's cold here and but it's boiling away the oceans at the equator at 220F  ::)

The accompanying link has some science I do believe in.  Solar irradiance...essentially how much heat comes from the sun:  http://lasp.colorado.edu/home/sorce/data/tsi-data/

Click on this one for an interesting graph...there's a reason it's getting cold right now:  http://lasp.colorado.edu/home/sorce/files/2011/09/TIM_TSI_Reconstruction-1.png

That "flat spot" at around 1,360 from 1650-1700 is the Maunder Minimum.  A little ice age ensued then...read a little about it here:  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maunder_Minimum

Bogan...I know you're checking this board out.  You can take this info elsewhere if you'd like!

I remain convinced if the Good Lord meant for hooman-beans to live in that weather, we'd been born with fur.

It's above zero here and should stay that way until Wednesday night. We'll have a few below zero nights then back above zero, night and day, for the next 9 days. All the snow melted off of my truck except between the windshield and hood. There's a windchill advisory tonight and tomorrow morning but not as bad as in Minnesota. You'll be able to get frostbite in as little as 30 minutes here, but only 10 minutes there. There's also a local pollen alert here, especially for ragweed, which sounds quite odd. I don't know how pollen can be a problem when the ground is covered with snow.

Even the plants are shivering --> shakes off what pollen remains on them.
