Why is the media pretending not to know why we're having record-high temperatures

Me too. We closed our offices early and all area schools shut down at 1:00 today.
We won't have to show up till 10:00 or so in the morning.

Sounds like the time for a nice pot of coffee and a book. :)

Yes indeed. Off work early, nice pot of coffee, the interwebs, wrapped up
in a soft warm blankie with my dogs watching it snow giant flakes outside.
If only the maid and my personal chef and masseuse had shown up. ;)

Sounds like you need a new masseur....

Um....that guy is just a little creepy and has no hair on his chest.
Could you make him just a bit more Sean Connery-ish?

Lets see... last year record cold and snowfalls meant global warming. This year high temps mean global warming. Make your minds up.

We ended up so far getting about 9 inches.
Whatever GW is causing this we are glad for it. :)

We got virtually zero rain for over a year.
These 3 snows were at least deep enough to
put some much needed moisture back in the ground.

more than three flakes fall, everything shuts down! :p
I'm sure it will be back in the 70's by afternoon tomorrow. :(

What's happened to the Permian since I left? When I was in Lovington in '66 or 67 the school buses had snow tires and chains and Friday night football was only called if they couldn't find the stadium.

Check your map, Lovington is some north and west of "The Petroplex" Midland-Odessa.
There is usually a line along about Lovington through Seminole swooping across to Abilene
where the Panhandle snows peter out and turn to rain if anything by the time it gets here.
We normally get 2-3 snows a year, but it's usually just a light dusting. This year we've
been getting mega snows that you can actually have enough to build a snowman out of.

As Tanker said, it all just depends on how far south the jet-stream is blowing.
