Whether or not - weather...



"Today will be another sweltering day. Not as hot as yesterday, but still hot. Fairly normal for late July. And (shocked face), it might even rain again! Oh my! There will still be golf being played, fish being caught, family picnics happening, and even some camping done."



"Peculiar weather we are having..." - a quote from The Wizard of Oz. And as we know, in Oz there were tornados, snowstorms, and oh my! But without the very scary tornado, which snatched Dorothy up from her beloved Kansas, there would not have been much of a movie - oh my!

The weather. What would most people in Minnesota talk about these days? Of course, we can't talk about politics anymore. That ship sailed in Minnesota. We are now stuck in the gulag. But the weather? Every day in every season, there is something to talk about. And now we have a boggy man to blame for any weather we are having, which is not 72 degrees and sunny. Climate change. Brought to you by the imperialists of every developing country. Especially the United States! (Oh my!)

What have we learned this July so far? The grass is green, the water is wet, the sky is blue, and Minnesota gets hot in July. What? Is Minnesota hot in July? What a news flash! True, after an abnormally wet winter, we have had an abnormally dry summer. It has happened before; it will happen again. Wait - are we running out of water? Not even close. We have more water on this planet than one could shake a stick at (or a divining rod at). It is just that some water is easier to get to than other water might be.

One of my long-time friends said it rained so hard during one of the big storms this week, it was like someone was spraying a hose at his windows. Some climate change alarmists said the fact we have larger hail this year is proof that our weather is getting worse. Really? Because hail is golf ball size or even sometimes softball size? Read Revelation about how large hail will get in the final days before Christ returns. Seventy-five to one hundred pounds per hail stone. 

Today will be another sweltering day. Not as hot as yesterday, but still hot. Fairly normal for late July. And (shocked face), it might even rain again! Oh my! There will still be golf being played, fish being caught, family picnics happening, and even some camping done.

Next week will be August, and I can already see the long-range forecast. It will be hot. Kind of like August in most years. Will it rain? Probably. Will people have fun in August? Probably. Will our State Fair start on time, and will scores of people attend? Count on it.  But will some climate alarmists still worry about August? Yes - but oh my!

  1. Since 1850, global temps have gone up about 1.2 degrees C, or 2 degrees F. The trend over the last ten years has been ZERO. Now tell me that the temperature difference between 7AM this morning and 7:30AM this morning is going to make hailstones gigantic? Complete and utter nonsense. AND, to top it off, if we cut off manmade CO2 completely, temperatures will be reduced by .0001 degrees, 100 years from now!
