People keep sending me this stuff. Got this from PJ.
COLUMBUS, Ohio - Highway and utility crews worked overtime Sunday to recover from the huge storm that buried Ohio and other parts of the Midwest in snow and tore down power lines elsewhere.More than 20 inches of snow fell from Friday through Saturday at Columbus, eclipsing the city's previous record of 15.3 inches set in February 1910, the National Weather Service said. Elsewhere 14 inches fell at Milan, Ind. Up to a foot fell in parts of Kentucky, Tennessee and Arkansas on Friday.
It's a good thing the planet is warming or this could have really been serious.
Many churches in the Columbus area canceled Sunday services because roads were so slippery.
Howza 'bout the Church of AGW? Was Pope Albert I in the area?
The storm also made roads slippery and snow-covered in western New York and caused flooding that closed roads in other parts of the state. On Sunday, high wind and falling temperatures created brisk wind chills in much of the state.Northern Maine also got heavy snow as the storm sped into Canada's Maritime Provinces, with 17.5 inches at St. Agatha, and 3 inches of rain fell at Robbinston in the state's eastern corner. A flood watch was in effect Sunday for wide areas of Maine but officials said there was no widespread flooding.
We had snow in Georgia over the weekend. Crank up them SUV's! Let's warm this planet up!

Posted by: Ralph Gizzip on March 10, 2008 09:21 PMI posted we had recieved 24 " ....the Weather Bureau corrected this to 23.4" This makes our yearly total 116.4" & it is snowing as I type.

Hundreds of travellers stranded at Pearson airport on Saturday, the beginning of the March-week-long-school-Holiday.The last time we had it so bad was 1938!
Ottawa: 52 centimetres of snow.
Quebec: Winds gusting to 113 km/h forced the police to abandon their vehicles.
I'm depressed...I'm ready to move where it's warm and sunny as an illegal alien. Can someone tell me where is the border?

Posted by: LisaKay on March 11, 2008 07:24 AMHaven't heard anything from the Pope, Al gore lately. Is he in hiding or has he vanquished himself to a warmer climate? He'll come out of hiding around July in Phoenix to declare once again that it is hot.
