If we have a top tier education system in the US why are you so **** stupid?[/QUOTE]
I guess because I sat behind you in school and did what you did. So, that said, hot does a warming climate create winter weather? Do tornadoes **** or blow?

This is an insane weather pattern for this time of year for the upper midwest. Not in a good way[/QUOTE]
this is a common weather pattern this time of year.
Well not common but not un expected.
Kicking Up Dust
The impacts of La Niña on our weather and climate have been highly variable throughout history. La Niña delivers drier, warmer, and sunnier weather along the southern tier of the United States, from California to Florida. This weather increases the risk of wildfires in Florida and dryness in the North American plains. The great Dust Bowl drought of the 1930s is thought to have been caused by a decade of La Niña-like conditions and was likely responsible, in part, for the severe drought in the American Midwest in 1988. The 1988-89 La Niña, believed to be one of the most severe in history, has been estimated to cost $40 billion in damages in North America!

Ok, so I was in the Texas panhandle and had to change my route plans. Just a couple hours north of my location the snow was piling up by the hour.
Go south you say? Nah, I'm allergic to tornadoes and they were a couple hours south of me.
No problem I will just see some sights around me .Yeah it turns out blue sky in that high plains country can be misleading...it turns out 60 mph winds will turn a semi trailer on to its side and block the road for what seems like days but was actually a couple hours, (no injuries thank goodness).
All this to point out the drastic weather "the baby" can cause.
BTW, Palo Duro Canyon is the second largest canyon in the United States and is one of the best kept secrets in Texas. Absolutely worth a visit.
Toured a lot of Oklahoma from the hill country to the Red Mounds.
The "Boston Mountains" of Arkansas are pretty easy to look at for a while also.
I've been fortunate to see 27 different states, see beautiful scenery, eat some **** good food and meet some pretty nice folks. I will add 4 more western states to the list in January and get to the Northwest in the spring.
One thing I've learned is everyone has their own take on weather patterns from "the worst drought they can remember " to "when it rains it floods" to "we used to have snow on the ground a month ago".
Just seems like it's all over the place.

that's 27 states since August

This is one of your "I know a guy so I am an expert now" arguments.
I live up here in the north. You just google it.
Its not so much the warmth but the consistency of it year to year. I guess you have to live it to see it. But what would you know about that.
