Yes, Virginia, the world is changing

Snow has fallen over the United Arab Emirates for the first time ever, leaving a white blanket over the mountains of Ras al-Khayma.

It was snowing recently in Galveston and Corpus Christi, too. And here I am trying to get to the Gulf so I can be warm. Maybe I should just stay put and wait for warm to get to me.

Climate experts are speculating about the end effect of global warming (with some saying places that are now warmed by the Gulf Stream will become frozen wastelands). On the other hand, if it's military mucking with the weather, it's bound to be a total cock-up, and the whole thing is a huge crap shoot.
