The local news says sleet in the morning, but the weather channel says snow.

Either way it's supposed to be below freezing around morning drive time. PLEASE BE CAREFUL on the roads tomorrow morning.

I read that, too, this morning. Iguanas falling out of trees.
We saw lots of iguanas on Boca Grande when we traveled there a few years ago, some quite large. I can't imagine living where iguanas are running loose. But I'd prefer that to living where it drops to 50 below!!

What happen to global warming?

Interesting article:
It's cold outside. What happened to global warming? / The Christian Science Monitor - CSMonitor.com

No sane climate scientist would say that global warming means never having another severe cold snap. What it does mean is a gradual shifting of the odds away from record-breaking cold days and toward record-breaking hot ones.
And that's exactly what we're seeing, even though we still get the occasional Arctic blast. The National Center for Atmospheric Research, a nongovernmental research group based in Boulder, Colo., released a report in November showing that, in the continental United States, the ratio of record high temperatures to low temperatures has increased dramatically in recent decades. In the 1950s, the center reports that ratio slightly exceeded 1 to 1, meaning that there were about as many record-breaking cold days as there were hot ones. By the 2000s, there were twice as many record highs as lows. On a warming planet, we'll still get the lows, just not as often.
But what's particularly troubling is that, even though temperatures have been high, the sun has been throwing a little less heat our way lately. According to NASA, we are currently experiencing the lowest solar minimum in nearly a century. Nobody knows when the sun will resume its previous output – in the 17th century, the sun went into a 70-year lull that correlated with cooler temperatures on Earth – and there's a chance that it may never come back.

Although your argument against climate change is very compelling I would have to ask for links to your sources.
