Perfect little climate conscious state with zero growth and zero job opportunities

You need job skills to get a job. Forgetting to charge your cell phone is not a job skill. It is an attribute of a lame-ass sports fan who follows lame-ass teams.

On the other hand....

Yankees' World Series Totals 134 90

Anyone who chooses to be a NY fan while growing up in CT has zero credibility.

Sox up 8.5 over the Skankees.

How long before (highly overpaid) Beckham accidentally shoots himself at a nightclub?

Oh, and your beer farts are partially responsible for global warming.

Did not take long for Aaron Hernandez to actually shoot and kill multiple people. Certainly a role model for Boston fans everywhere. Which means just around Boston. I fart when I try to fit on to those little wooden slats called seats at Fenway.

New Haven to the state line is Yankee territory. Dad was raised in Yonkers, mother in West Haven. Can't get much closer to the Stadium no mater what state you live in. Vacation with grand parents included at least one day watching the YANKEES at the Stadium.

On the 8.5 games back, Red Sox had a steep slide while the Yankees had a long winning run getting them within 6 games. Looks like the tide has changed for now as the Sox are winning and the Yanks are losing games they should be winning. Let the playoffs begin.

All Vermont needs to do to become "climate conscious" is declare a $15 hr minimum wage, enact a carbon tax and tax those ski areas as much as possible and the rental properties as well as their remaining industry. They will then flee the state and ski ticket sales will dry up. Climate CO2 emissions "problem" solved! Once Democrats retake control of the federal government the displaced never to be purposefully employed folks can all go on welfare and shoot themselves up on drugs to death. Then the government can create BS jobs for them digging holes and filling them back in again. Yeah!

I wonder if the sun has anything to do with climate change?

Radio propagation for sure.

United Nations special climate report suggests that its completely unrealistic and impractical to fight global warming.

Will The Snowiest Decade Continue?

https://boston.cbslocal.com/2018/11/15/ ... -forecast/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

The last decade stands out like a sore thumb! It has had 29 major impact northeast winter storms with NO previous 10-year period with more than 10 storms! In Boston, 7 out of the last 10 years have produced snowfall above the average 43.7 inches.

2012-13: 63.4″
2013-14: 58.9″
2014-15: 110.6″ Greatest On Record Back To 1872
2015-16: 36.1″
2016-17: 47.6″
2017-18: 59.9″

Additionally, the trend for fall snow across the northern hemisphere has been increasing, defying the forecasts over the last two decades for snows becoming an increasingly rare event. The 10-year running mean of the Boston area snowfall has skyrocketed to the highest level since snow records were kept and that goes back about 145 years! Fluctuations in the temperature regime and annual snowfalls are a function of about 25 global factors including changing oceanic oscillations mainly sea-surface temperature anomaly locations which impact atmospheric conditions creating certain jet stream configurations plus others such as solar activity and irradiance, geomagnetic activity, volcanism, etc.

Interestingly, some scientists have stated that increasing snow is consistent with climate change because warmer air holds more moisture, more water vapor and this can result in more storms with heavy precipitation. The trick, of course, is having sufficient cold air to produce that snow. But note that 93% of the years with more than 60″ of snow in Boston were colder than average years. The reality is cooling, not warming, increases snowfall. Note the graph depicting declining January through March temperatures for 20 years at a rate of 1.5 degrees F. per decade in the Northeast!

So, what gives? What can we expect going forward in the decades ahead? Are we indeed looking at a new paradigm? There is great uncertainty about the scope and prediction of climate change. Will there be a switch in direction? The Earth has experienced major cooling occurrences five times over the past 1000 years. When will the pendulum swing? Arctic temperatures and arctic ice extent varies in a predictable 60-70 year cycle. The greatest warming has been happening in the Arctic region and that can produce a weaker, less stable jetstream that allows frigid air to dive farther south to mix with the warmer oceans to trigger more potential snow events. It’s all cyclical. Ocean cycles are driven by solar cycles. Above and beyond that, important drivers are the Earth’s orbital cycles being comprised of such variables as the changes of the angle at which the Earth tilts on its axis plus the wobble of Earth on its axis. For now, we can be accurate in saying that the shorter range prediction of seasonal trends is more forecastable.
