I am not a scientist or a theologian, I am merely a man who crunches the numbers.
And the numbers I present here are proof that it's much warmer than usual.
By looking at the actual highs and lows
compared to average highs and lows, we see that in August 2007, Bristol, VA equaled or exceeded the
average high on 30 of 31 days,
and equaled or exceeded the average low on 30 of 31 days. It is nearly always warmer than it should be!
On top of that, my area is suffering through a Level 4 drought. Streams and creeks are drying up, my lawn is brown and my flowers
haven't bloomed since March 2007. Climate change?, uhhhh, yeah!
