and work at an agricultural research station where we have kept detailed weather records since 1892. Since 1990 our frost free season has increased 24 days. That's a lot when you consider our ff season used to be only 110 days. Don't call it global warming though, but rather climate change, some areas get colder with the phenomenon.
and I'm glad I didn't drive up to Mount Vernon for thanksgiving. My relatives in Iowa say they haven't had the right amount of snow for years. By right amount I think they mean the minimum needed for crops to thrive.
