Thanks for the update. Very interesting. I saw the original article on Drudge, not in a chain letter. It then got picked up by bloggers. Here's what I found regarding sun spots and cold weather: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_Ice_Age#Solar_activity Regardless, NW Vermont where I'm at now is having a record amount of snow this month. ;-)
Somewhat paradoxically, that in fact is partly explainable by a warming trend too.. ;) I used to live in Potsdam NY, and it got *mighty* chilly some winters (-40F and wind chills as low as -80F). And everybody *knew* that those *really* cold spells never had much snow attached to them, because air that cold doesn't have the moisture capacity. On the other hand, if it got up to 28F or 31F, you could be in trouble, because *that* air would hold a *lot* of water vapor. Remember - Antarctica is a *desert* because it's too cold to snow - the South Pole gets something like 1/10 of an inch of snow a *year*. Snow *drifts* all the time, but almost never any actual snowfall....
