While it’s climate, not weather, [looking at a trend](http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/cag/time-series/us/41/00/tavg/2/02/1995-2014?base_prd=true&firstbaseyear=1990&lastbaseyear=2014)can help you anticipate what the weather might be.

So while [your winters might suck](http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/cag/time-series/us/41/00/tavg/3/02/1995-2014?base_prd=true&firstbaseyear=1990&lastbaseyear=2014), at least summer might be warm this year…

**FXMastermind** , you already have one Pit thread where you can babble away to your heart’s content about global warming. You are not getting a second one. Leave this hijack where it is.

I’m not sure why you think things have changed since my last mod note.
