Wiarton Willie, the groundhog in Ontario, predicted that we were supposed to have an early spring.
We had a snowstorm last week. Really bad wind chill. More snow expected today. Some experts predict that we won't be getting any stable spring weather until mid-May.
Snay, can I borrow your train?

It's snowing in PA right now. So we're just as bad off as you.

I'm going to assume this is one of those funny colonial things? I mean a groundhog is a type of pig, right? How is it supposed to predict the weather?
Even Michael Fish doesn't get it right all the time.

I knew you'd say that. But it doesn't mean it isn't happening, nor does it mean we should be free to pollute the air as we please.

Yes, I do not like the ice storms that knock out power.... Although when the cold (global warming my ass) sun shines off the trees they look all nice a silver, and the field of reeds look like field of swords stuck in the ground with their blades aimed at the sky....

This is the same guy who used to wonder where his forecaster-promised snow was.
You flip-flop on the issues, man...

Actually, this late snowstorm probably IS caused by global warming... the warmer climate has melted parts of the polar ice caps, thus increasing the amount of moisture in the air and altering the main wind patterns like the jet stream, thus making it colder and wetter at this time of year, and we get snowed on.

Yeah, but don't talk about global warning like its All Our Fault�. Global climate changes all the time. I just hope this interstadial lasts a little longer...
