Camelot. Sounds like the perfect place to retire. How's the boating there?

Btw, is climate change new or man made? I've often wondered who is responsible for ending the last ice age 12,000 years ago. Perhaps Mastodon flatulent.

Today is June 12th. How close to summer ? There is a 4*F windchill with snow here (click on link) in NH: https://www.mountwashington.org/expe...onditions.aspx

LOL

Note: That link's weather conditions updates every 10 minutes.So, if it show's different than what I said, it's because it will show real time, again, within 10minutes.

Okay while I'm not a big fan of the hoopla and drama surrounding the subject, as a farmer the last two years we have harvested earlier than ever.
That said what real difference will it make as we put people out of work as China continues to ramp up with little or no pollution regard. We stifle our economy to grow another and what is accomplished?

Here is right now:
Wind Speed Wind Direction 10-Minute Gust Wind Chill
69 mph NW (330°) 81 mph 13° F
Temp RH Pressure Weather
32.8° F 99% 23.535 inHG -RA FG
24-Hour Data
Precip Snow High Low Gust
0.94 in 3.7 in 46.3° F 25.6° F 86 mph
Visibility (miles)

And it's bike week here. A popular ride is to go up this Mt. Not happening today as husts are supposed to over 90mph, and it snowed there yesterday as the chart shows.

It's on target to place in the 5th most snow they have ever recieved in June.

Hey, it's only June. I've had the boat out 12 times already and we are heading out today and might run to Put-in-Bay, a 160 mile round trip by boat from where I launch. No complaints on the weather here.

Hell China has already begun to outsource to countries with cheaper labor and less regulation
