Definitely NOT global warming!

On the map (find it on the link) I'm not in one of the "blue" areas, but it's gonna get COLD!

The Daily M always exaggerates!

Don't worry. If you were to track back to their source it probably says that there is a 'chance' it could happen.
Earlier this week the UK papers were saying that our temps might reach the mid 30s by the end of the month. Long range forecasts are notoriously fickle!

I saw some pics today from Perth, WA where cars in the street were covered in frost.

However, someone also posted a pic of Yosemite National Park in California.
It's knee deep in snow!
I was in Yosemite July 2008........ and it was scorching hot!

It snowed today in the Adelaide hills! An area that's been ravaged by bushfires almost every summer.

I'm in the subtropics...... where it's been known to hail on a 30C day :-S

My DH is still wearing shorts........ but I've seen him go out in the snow, wearing a short sleeve shirt.

I saw a story this morning......... we're headed for an ice age..... probably start approx 2020-2030............ I wish they'd make up their minds, ice age? global warming?
