Quote from Lucrum:

Scores die in icy weather across Europe

"...In Romania, temperatures plunged to minus 32.5 C , and six homeless people died in the past 24 hours of hypothermia, the health ministry reported. Hundreds of other people were sent to shelters to protect them from the extreme cold.

Five people died of hypothermia in the last day in Poland, bringing its toll up to 20 since Friday.

Several schools across Hungary suspended classes, including one in the east that said it could not afford the high heating bills. The airport in Montenegro's capital Podgorica was closed down for all flights late Wednesday because of heavy snowfall.

In Russia, temperatures fell to minus 21 C in Moscow but only one person was reported to have died of the cold.

And, 80 below (F) in Jim River, Alaska a couple days ago. A new record for Alaska and the U.S. They're not sure exactly how cold it got because the thermometer broke at -80. Well, the battery died on the measuring device at the reporting station due to the extreme cold.

And I went for a run today in shorts and t shirt in New York on the first of Feb. Sure proof of AGW.

OK, gotta smile at that one. My NYC friends are wondering 'where did winter go?'

Prairie Canada is just days away from its warmest (and driest) winter ever recorded. Alberta has had nearly seven straight months of record breaking averages. I wonder what La Nina is going to do to this year's grain crop (part of which I'll be growing on my farm : ))

this la nina sucks in San Diego. Its sunny everyday. I have to wear a hat when I play golf at 3:30 with my kids almost everyday and i still get tanned.
I was stationed in SD back in the 70's. I can't remember seeing a cloud then.

IMHO the spring time weather has been overcast far too often the last five years.

so far this year we are doing well.

Ah, the Daily Ricter Riddle. No clouds in the 70's.

How do you come up with these riddles? All I can say is, good work. :D

San Diego usually has a nice onshore breeze which clears out the atmosphere except in May/June when they have a persistent marine layer.

LA was pretty smoggy in the early 70s. I think cars are so much cleaner running now that it has made a big difference. Where I live outside of LA has 360 days of sunshine per year, the highest in the country.

I tried living a Seattle which has spectacular summers but I'm too easily affected by the grey ski all winter. I have to live somewhere where that big orange ball in the sky is visible most days. Grey sky makes me unhappy really quickly. My friends up there got a good laugh because I would usually sit in front of a lightbox in the morning to drink my coffee.
