Where's global warming when you need it??

Question

It's like 54 degrees where I'm at right now. It's almost May. I would love for some global warming to hit, I've got alot of new shorts I would love to wear.

Answer 1

After near record heat over the weekend, and ignoring the seriousness of the issue, let me say " Be careful what you ask for. You just might get it."

Answer 2

You are mistaking "global warming" for weather. Weather is the current atmospheric conditions and climate is the atmospheric conditions over many years. Global warming has nothing to do with it being cooler than average for a couple of days.

Answer 3

We had record cold temperatures in many areas of the USA yesterday and there was record snowfall last Winter too. It was really nice skiing this year in Colorado. My family goes every year and there has been plenty of snow for the past three years. Several years ago the Denver Airport had so much snow the roof collapsed. I don't think Denver will be experiencing a shortage of water anytime soon.

Answer 4

lol i know what u mean. It always seems like global warming is happening somewhere else!

Answer 5

Thanks for a good laugh.

If global warming amounts to a degree or two over the past 100 years (0.01 degree of warming per year), what would be the effect on daily weather or on seasonal variations?  You won't notice much change at first.

On the other hand, human agriculture has adapted over hundreds of years to subtle microclimates, so change is not beneficial. Redistribution of precipitation patterns will also challenge human adaptation to current water supplies. For example, what happens when the Himalayan glaciers supplying 2.4 billion people in Asia are gone? What happens to Los Angeles, Las Vegas and Denver as snowpack and water supplies in the Colorado Basin dwindle?

Answer 6

well, it sure is hot in new york! Global warming isn't just the increase of the temperature, it can be the decrease of temperature, too! if you want normal temperature, join the fight to stop global climate change!
