Montana - Only Getting Better.

According to my nifty 2007 Farmer's Almanac temperatures will increase by roughly 3.7 degrees by the end of the century. However the distribution is far from even. The north will get the majority of that warming. Most warming will come in the form of night time temperatures and milder winters. So essentially Montana will be getting far nicer while the south, say New Mexico will be getting only slightly more unbearable. There is an upside for everyone. The milder temperatures in the north will reduce heating costs more than the increased need for air conditioning in the south. So energy demand from heating and cooling should diminish. The Old Farmer's Almanac 2007 got its information from a study done by Stanford Researcher Dr. Thomas Gale Moore and the U.S. Department of Energy.

What's Your Problem?

Seems a lot of folk are out of sorts today. I'm noting depression, agitation, and general grumpiness. Robert usually holds that the change in weather is accompanied by a change in the ions in the air, which in someway affect mood. That would hold for Butte but I'm noting cantankerous attitudes across the country.

I'm in a pretty good mood, so the rest of you should just snap out of it. In fact, you should all just take a moment to think about me. It's a sure ticket to joyfulness.
