Their lowest temp and wind chill is ideal working conditions on my job, which is ALL done outside.

Just remember folks, climate and weather are two different things so this has nothing at all to do with global warming.

Absolutely true!

But the record heat wave in India in 2014, and the record heatwave in India in 2015, and what looks to be another record heatwave in 2016 . . . just might.

I'm glad you prefaced this with "might". 3 years of hot weather doesn't necessarily mean climate change anymore than the decade of drought in the 30's meant it.

I can't imagine how you lived through that, FOG.

And that is where the term: "you're older than the dirt in my backyard" comes from.

La Niña coming? Deep pool of cool water is making its way across tropical Pacific


One of the strongest El Niños on record has been dominating the tropical Pacific Ocean for the past year. But beneath the surface, a deep pool of cool water has been sliding slowly eastward for the past couple of months. This massive, slow-motion wave is a favorable sign that La Niña—the cool phase of the ENSO climate pattern—might develop.
