It's been rumored that a heat wave has unexpectedly hit the state of Massachusetts and the province of New Brunswick. Anyone 'round here got an idea of the cause of this unexpected turn of events? :D

Calm at the airport. Still blowing stink up here on the hill.
Yet another reason to ignore wind chill reports from an airport.

It's still been a fairly typical January, based on the past 50 years. Not exceptionally cold. December was cold. January is fairly close to normal, but colder than the past few years.

We won't see significant statistics for global warming for another 10 years or so.
Carbon dioxide levels and deterministic climate change models are all we have so far.

The jokes about the weather will go on for a bit. People joke about such things for awhile.
Highland clearances. Potato famines. {bleep}. All very funny at the time I guess.

One of my favorite Dietrich lines was when a Russian agent had failed to return a defector and was deliberating his punishment with Dietrich, who mentions that he doubts that Siberia would be the punishment. The agent says angrily "Siberia would be very unfair!" In classic style, Dietrich replies "Damn cold, too."
