Winter II

As we talk with people, this is also the most snowfall Waterloo has had in a winter for decades.

I saw a sign that someone had handwritten in their yard this week that said "Global Warming??" It is ironic, and counterintuitive that such weather would happen in the middle of a time when the global warming debate is so active. I'll admit, I'm not overly educated on the whole debate, but I did come across an article by Howard Snyder that shed a bit of insight for me into why global warming doesn't necessarily mean hotter termperatures.

Winter I

Well, according to the news reports, Waterloo reached a record low last night of minus 29. Apparently our thermometer at church doesn't go that low, or else it really warmed up by the time I got to work.

I think I can get a better picture than this--I'll try and get it tomorrow, but the lower picture is trying to show how deep our snow is currently--about 10-12 inches.
