Call Al Gore.....

I do not know if this is even remotely meaningful, but cold temperatures recorded as of late would seem to at least be anecdotal if not indicative of falling temperatures not warming ones.....

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, U.S. Geological Survey and Maine State Climate Office announced today that a minus-50 reading in northwestern Maine held up to scientific scrutiny.

That beats Maine's old record of 48 below zero set in 1925 in Van Buren, and ties the record for coldest temperature recorded in New England. That reading was made in 1933 in Bloomfield, Vt.

The record on New Hampshire's Mount Washington is minus-47.

It seems as if someone should give Al Gore a call to see if he can get back the heady days of mild global warming temperatures instead of these ridiculous freezing ones.
