Opinions please?

[spinner1]

I just looked at my journal for the last 5 years.


I have been taking stream temps for each outing to southwestern wisconsin.


My homewater is minimum 4 degrees colder than it was 5 years ago
and most streams have a 6 degree colder reading.

Anyone care to give an informed theroy on why this has happened?

*Facetiousness will follow*

Increasing temperatures worldwide have caused an increase in the amount of average snowmelt/glacial melting that is temporarily decreasing the temperature of your local waters.

Also, global warming CLEARLY only affects the oceans, the air, and land. Therefore, following the first (I think) law of thermodynamics, "all actions have an equal and opposite reaction", small bodies of water get colder as temperatures elsewhere increase.

Ummm.... Spinner1, how many glaciers are there in your part of Wisconsin?

Does anyone know what part of the oven I put the ice cube tray in to freeze while the roast is on?

I actually don't want to be rude to the previous poster. I want to put a context on the ideas. Being an inveterate smart @$$, I can't see another to make the same point. Once again, I apologize to the previous poster for what is sure to be insult taken if not intended. It is only the idea which I wish to offend against.

Spinner1,
I don't think the temp difference from last year to this year means anything one way or another. Now I would be interested what your Journal said for the past 5 years.

Obvioulsy Google won't let this thread be found.
YOu will have a visit from the "global warming" police soon for sure. YOu can't post information on the internet that goes contrary to the idealism of the far left. YOu should have known better.

No offense taken. The *facetiousness* was meant to imply that I was not in any way serious in my response. I did not mean that there were glaciers in Wisconsin my point was simply that Al Gore is not the be-all and end-all that people take him, and his film, to be.

I could have hoped that an "inveterate smart @$$" would have seen this, but apparently my smart-alleck part of my brain was tired that day or simply on vacation.

You asked for opinions.... you are gonna get 'em.

My dad used to to tell me that "opinions are like bum-holes, everyone has one and they all stink!"

All I can say is that I wish the streams in eastern Nebraska were colder so I could do some trout fishing close to home!!!

I think you should post the conclusion you come up with. It will be a nice conclusion to everyone's thoughts

Have you checked the accuracy of your thermometer lately?
Just a thought.
