the correct term is not global warming. the earth as a whole is not warming. its called global climate change. some areas are getting warmer, some actually colder and the equator and other areas wont change much at all. some areas will get wetter, some dryer. theres a TON of models out there scientist came up with. ll in. the "corn belt" of the middle of the country is expected to slowly migrate north. pretty iwe were just talking about it in ecology because its slowly changing alot of ecology. we are getting birds in PA that we never had before. animals will be the first to change because they can move the fastest. slowly the soils and plants will change. all depends what area you are in. interesting stuff to say the least. it will be interesting to see what happens over our lifetimes.

our winter thus far in PA has been very odd to say the least. opening day of rifle season right after thanksgiving i was in a tshirt and vest. up till about xmas we only had 1 snowfall i believe. now january it finally got cold. but its been kinda REALLY cold. lows in the teens..highs in the 20s. been snowing lake effect snow daily. and alot of small 1-3 inch snows pretty often. maybe winter will be later now..who knows. alot of plants and flowers started blooming and coming up. now they are frozen solid. alot of animals lost their winter fur a long time ago..i dont know for sure but things like that cannot be good. when we usually had winter it was pretty dang mild to say the least. now its freezing. i guess in the end nature will take its course. plants and animals will learn to adapt or slowly migrate to diffrent locations.
