Global Warming! NO but the system is totallyout of wack. The enviroment doesn't know what to do anymore. Am I the only one to notice how we had that ever since el nino is has stayed that way sorta. That el nino is only suposed to be temporay not all the time. Maybe I'm just ranting and maybe not what ever it is cold here too. Last week it wasin the 70's and now it is 25 WTF is going on. Isn't it suposed to be spring. Well how can we plant the flowers and stuff if it is so cold. April showers not April snow Flurries. Is there anything we could do to make it back like it used to be? Where when it was winter is snowed and in the spring it was F*&%ing Warm outside.

Yes....wait. There is no "typical" weather patterens. Just what you were used to from the past years. It's crazy to think that the weather is going to be exactly the same year after year, but most people think that is what is supposed to happen. How are we so sure that the Earth's axis doesn't tilt a thousandth of a degree from "normal" and that isn't what is causing this "change". Or that we are exactly the same distance away from the sun as last year, not a thousandth of an inch closer, causing this change.

I'd love to go back to "normal" but I'm young enough not to know what that means. Sometime.....if it takes decades or centuries, the weather patterns, wind currents, water currents, will all align back to what normal was.

I personally don't mind it, I was wearing shorts last week and now a hoody and pants this week. It will get warm...once cold air from the north stops pushing the warm air away.

See, that's what I keep trying to tell people that whine about the weather (my current bitching at this storm notwithstanding): This kind of weather, while not common, is not unusual in April. Even if we get the full 25 cm (10") it will not set any record for this area.

I find Spring is an odd season anyway - we get a day or two in the 70's in March and everyone thinks it's summer. Then the temp goes back to normal and everyone whines that it's been a cold spring. Our average temperature through March and so far through April has been colder than average, but not abnormally cold - "Seasonably cool" is the way the weather guy describes it.

After a cold winter we all want warm weather, and we all think it's late coming, but it's really not. This snow storm is still gonna suck, though...

Case in point....here in texas it's been like 87 close to 90 degrees...then this. Granted it's not much but still keeps me from washing and waxing her.

What people do not understand is the weather patterns on earth have not really been recorded for long enough to come up with a reliable baseline to guage global warming on. Actually, all indications recently are that we are caught up in a NORMAL cycle right now. I agree that we dump way too much into the air, water and soil, but the planet and all the creatures in it will adapt. They have before, and they are doing so right now. I dont think that we should do nothing, but nowhere near the sweeping changes being thrown around recently by the "Politicos" in Washington.
