The biggest "local" paper for those of us who live here in the mountains has some meteorologist making 7-day predictions.
On Sunday, his prediction for next Saturday was 96.
On Monday, his prediction for next Saturday was 85.
On Tuesday, his prediction for next Saturday was 79.
And today, Wednesday, his prediction for next Saturday is 74.
That's a 22-degree switch in temperature in 4 days. It will be interesting to see what the actual temperature is on Saturday, but he's certainly covered his bases.
In a very short, precise, and understandable way, I have set forth why it is impossible for me to believe all the hype about global warming. Predictions vary from day to day, from person to person.
Why on earth would any rational, intelligent person think that accurate predictions can be made for years down the road?
