    Global Warming

    Hope you guys on the other side of the pond are staying safe and snug in your 16oz tanks in this latest bout of global warming. Take care guys. Any pictures?
    If you are going to do it, do it in a kilt!

    Standing on the platform for my train this morning it was -26C with a windchill of -39C (sometimes referred to as "feels like") - no kilts today!

    Think warm.

    For me in Maryland, it's not the 6 degree temperature keeping me from wearing a kilt today, it's the 20 mph wind gusts!

    I guess I'll enjoy our 50F degrees and wear my new UTkilt I received yesterday.

    "Global Warming" ?
    Personally I am far from convinced. It seems to me that worldwide temperatures average out. While here in Scotland our winter so far has been a few degrees warmer than normal, caused by winds from the south-west bringing wet and stormy, but unusually mild, weather it seems that North America is suffering the big chill as the opposite side of the vortex draws down arctic air. Stay safe.

    Here are several photos of my hometown of St. Louis, Missouri, which was hit hard by the recent winter storm and received upwards of 15 inches of snow and record breaking, freezing temperatures and windchills. We didn't get the snowfall here in my adopted hometown of Cincinnati, Ohio, yet we have been experiencing extremely cold temperatures with many local schools and businesses closing due to the freezing cold.
