2005 was warmest year on record: NASA

Dust in the Wind

Using indirect measurements that go back farther, I think it's even fair to say that it's the warmest in the last several thousand years." NASA story link.

Looks like an early spring and severe drought effecting midwest crops. The Southwest US is experiencing it's driest winter in 500 years, and pointing to a record setting wildfire season.

In northern Illinois we had creeks that had run dry, one lake lost 3.5' of water due to farmers pumping it out because of no rain.

we have had a total of 20" of snow and its forecasted to be in the low 50's in 2 days.

Missouri has some strange weather, 63 one day, and 30 the next. This years winter has been very poor. It has snowed and stuck once and the weather is just supposed to go up from here on out. There were maybe 20 days for the past two months that we had to wear coats because of cold. That is very poor.
