Here in east Texas it was cool last night. Last year we had a heat wave here.
I think global warming is patchy warming at best. Not even sure if it is caused by CO2.
When I look at the anomaly map with the blue and purple colors penetrating to the Deep South I see cause for compression in the atmosphere elsewhere.
I like the Howdy at the top bar of Electroverse. Funny I just noticed it. Being a Texas Aggie that is the term of greeting we always used in the Corps of Cadets, and actually most of the student body uses it as well. Thanks for all you are doing. Little by little it seems that the truth is beginning to break through in even the most liberal and globalist areas.
Checked the 7 day forecast hoping for a break, but instead the temps are creeping higher. We don’t usually have unbroken hot temps till the end of July, first of August.
Does anyone remember the Twilight Zone episode where the gal was having a dream where the earth was gradually falling into the sun and it was getting hotter and hotter, only to wake up and discover the earth was actually moving away from the sun and it was getting colder and colder.
What did Rod Serling know? And which is it, really?
We had to bring in our bedding plants because of frost warning on June 18, just days before summer solstice. It has been a very cool and dry spring. Our grass is brown and hurts the feet to walk on it. This is not normal. Our fruit trees look just about dead. The temperature did reach 0C for hours overnight. Over the past days it has had a “winter feel” to the air.
I chatted with the young woman (late 30’s), who owns a substantially sized, brand new (year #4), greenhouse. I gave her the crash course in GSM and explained to her how her greenhouses and her expertise is going to become more and more valuable as the growing season becomes shorter and shorter. She will be growing food.
This GSM conversation started after she explained to me how frustrating it has been for her customers who have had to come back and “re-buy” all the plants purchased as a result of the cold, windy weather destroying the plants over and over. The “buying over and over”, is a telltale sign that this kind of cold, blustery weather is NOT expected in June. This kind of weather is what we see in April. Winter/Spring transition seems to have creeped ahead about 7 to 8 weeks this year.
Mystic,
Not sure on the high tunnel tax, but caves and tunnels are useless for growing food without massive electrical infrastructure. There are too many mouths to feed considering the response will come well after we are past the point of no return. Our local greenhouse will be growing their own food and selling the excess along with greenhouse building and running, expertise.
Deb,
Oats are daily food in this home. Kale, not so much.
“Kale is hardy and thrives in wintertime, and can survive in temperatures as low as −15 °C (5 °F). Kale can become sweeter after a heavy frost.” (Wikipedia)
-15C is definitely winter. Kale is one tough, insulated plant.
I’ve been mowing my lawn eight hours a week last fourteen weeks times three miles an hour walking speed with a torn hamstring. 14 X 8 X 3mph = 336 miles. Just looked on Google Earth that would be to Myrtle Creek Oregon if I headed South from here West of Seattle, almost to California.
My fruit trees look great, grapes great, blackberries loaded, one sugar snap pea plant is taller than me.
I get the lawn caught up and cut firewood then mow the lawn and then cut more firewood. Round and round I go lost eighty pounds whole body in seizure pain most of the time. Uncut grass here is four feet tall and blackberries grow a foot a day. I mowed this morning now it can bake in the sun for three days and get brown I don’t water it. It keeps the dust down in Summer and it keeps the yard not turning to mud in Winter. Driveway is grass and moss too I mow everything twice a week last 14 weeks. Whole yard was overgrown 20′ tall when I got it six years ago. Hand pruners and burned the brush piles. Lawn under control now, enough firewood split for next winter drying in the sun, bills are paid, went to Walmart 120 mile round trip yesterday morning got groceries. Check check check check. Reading new Jason Bourne ‘Treachery’ in the shade now, take a break. I’ve real all the Jason Bourne books and Jack Reacher, James Rollins, Dan Brown on and on need to go book shopping.
Just watch out for those Himalayan blackberries. They’re invasive/illegal in many areas. They spread everywhere and anywhere. Best bet is hybrid, thornless blackberry plants suitable for your growing zone.
Blackberries get twenty feet tall, can’t walk through them. Overgrow the house and garage. Too many coyotes and cougars for animals, sixty miles of National Forest is my backyard in the Olympic Mountains. Nobody here has animals. I keep the neighbors blackberries cut back to my fence one behind me has thirty years of unmaintained undergrowth growing on three fifty foot evergreen trees could go up like match heads. I has grapes on the other two stretches of fence all pruned and looking great. Walk around and graze and eat fresh salmon keep the Elk at bay away from the gardens. One’s name is Stew.
“One is named, “Stew”.
LOL…..I love it.
All we get here is the odd moose up from the meandering river valley. They find the odd deep pond that has not been reclaimed for growing grain.
You will fair much better that us here Dirk, (Central Alberta), when winter reaches into July.

Or C, both. Further and closer during the yearly orbit, right? UHA GT went up near and far and as the mag shield gets weaker we have less protection from the Sun so it should get colder the weaker it gets.

If we have less protection from the sun, It ought to get hotter, not colder. More types of energy from the sun will be reaching the Earth’s surface.

Since the western world governments have brought us to this troubling juncture, don’t you think the least they can do is make high tunnels tax exempt?
Still expecting governments to serve the people, Mystic?

Learn to love kale and oats, Jim. They’re not bad if you fix them right.

🤨 I don’t THINK so! That tear would have worked its way up to your gluteus Maximus by now!

Blackberries are food. Just let ’em grow and eventually you won’t have to mow any grass. Find a farmer’s market and sell quarts of berries. Win-win.
Or put a pair of goats in your yard to turn the grass into milk and cheese. They probably eat blackberries, too.
Or bundle that grass like hay to feed a horse or donkey. Otherwise you’re going to have a heck of a time getting to town after the CME.
Just watch out for those Himalayan blackberries. They’re invasive/illegal in many areas. They spread everywhere and anywhere. Best bet is hybrid, thornless blackberry plants suitable for your growing zone.
