[ExI] conventional winter

[spike at rainier66.com]

The National Weather Service and the Weather Channel both predicted 31C for
today.  Their software models air masses and clouds, but cannot predict
smoke clouds.  We had a huge smoke cloud hang over us all day.  The
temperature dropped to 19C, the biggest disparity between prediction and
actual I have ever seen.

 

We have long known about nuclear winter, but this is not nuclear, just
conventional forest fires.  Now that I have seen it myself, it is very clear
why that whole nuclear winter business is such a big concern.
