Global warming. Go Al! It's in the 60's in Oklahoma when it's usually 100's.

While I understand the natural variability of weather, it was weird to have tornado warnings, and one even touch down, here in western Maine. This has been our second wettest summer on record, but this is just local.
Scary report on the artic (I use BBC news and search 'climate change') lot of methane being released from the tundra and surrounding area.

We have had colder Augusts, but this is definitely a summer that wasn't.

I loved this summer in MN. I think Aug. has been the 3rd coolest in histoty. July was pretty cool, too. Avg. high temps have been mid-70's to low 80's.

As far as I'm concerned, every summer in MN could be like this one.
