I know that this is a silly sample size, but still. At some point those folks that are screaming Global Warming should be forced to demonstrate that we really are warming.
High temperature averaged a chilly 47 degrees for the first two weeks of the month – 16 degrees below normal.
With 19 consecutive days of below normal temperatures and accumulating snow falling a few weeks before normal, news that this has been the coldest start to an October on record in the Twin Cities probably isn’t all that shocking.
