Unhappy Temperatures in the northeast

We must be heading into another ice age around here. I'm still wearing my fleece jacket in June. This is rediculous. [pure sarcasm]Go buy SUV's and drive them a lot. We need global warming up here.[/pure sarcasm]

37C (sorry, don't know degree combo on Windows) is body temperature, so... wow, Toast, it must be like Modesto in summer there!

Habilis: A) Why did you change your avatar? B) I'd rather not have global warming so I don't melt and boil away in the summer. And SUV's have more problems than just the amount of pollution they put out, like being too damn big to see around.

I know isn't it so bizarre? I almost can't recognize my own posts and I'm lookin over to see who wrote this crap. I feel unexpectedly detached and adrift without my old avatar. It was so.. habilis.

Anyway, I changed it because of I was gettin the 7 month itch. Also I was disgruntled because 'the man' won't let me express myself graphically in my signature.

I'll probably change it back.

Yea, the climate is definitely changing. The last years, the average max. temp every day in summer has been 3-5°C higher than normal, and winters are colder than ever. It's also a lot dryer here in north, and more rain in south of Europe. Well I like its effect here, but it's obviously the cause of many floods, landslides and hurricanes the last years...

Oh, I thought you Americans were boicotting everything with European names these days?

okay, maybe we should start measuring temperature in Kelvin instead
It has been around 300°K () here the last days, which is abnormal for this part of the world.

Let's not go into Kelvins, as I've lost my old scientific calculater I'd need to know how cold or hot that'd be.
