There is hardly ever lake effect snow in Febuary because the lakes are frozen by now, usually.
As for the the Northeast, I, here in RI have seen 1 inch of snow all year. We are getting the ice storm but got spared the worst of it. It is now raining and the roads aren't that bad.
A usual winter here is nothing like this one. It is definitely warmer than any I remember. Gobal warming is real, no matter what the enviromentalist haters say. I think half of them just like to argue.
This year is real proof of a quickly warming enviroment! | Hahahahaha! No they're not! The Great Lakes RARELY freeze over.
I suppose the next thing you'll be claiming is that the Atlantic Ocean used to freeze over - before Global Warming and all. TEACH Questions & Answers |
