Not bad here at my central Indiana home today. High of 82. I mowed the yard for the first time in almost 3 weeks. I didn’t think it needed mowed yet due to the lack of rain but the two “W”s compelled me to do it. Those would be the Weeds and the Wife.
Farmers desperately need rain here. Crops south of I-70 are doing noticeably better than those north of it. The further south one goes the better they look.
I reference you and your website all the time.
I love that you simply show data that has been compiled and in some cases, altered, but it is not your opinion. Afterall , that is what science is. a search for knowledge.
so thank you tony
Also, I love that you call certain people Climate prophets after all that is what you should be called when predicting things that haven’t happened.
Deuteronomy 19:22 tells one of the requirements for being a prophet. I hope you can use it in a video.
