How cold is it in Texas?

Cold enough that AlGore may be in the state to make a speech blaming it on Global Warming. Just ask Dave Nalle.

...

It's cold here. It's not just a little cool like it might be on a breezy Spring night, it's record shattering, unprecedentedly, incredibly cold. It's oh my god I think the ice age has started cold. The cold is lasting for days, and when these cold fronts come in from the west and hit the moisture from the Gulf of Mexico, we also get a hell of a lot of rain. Really cold rain. Where are the arid winds and baking sun of Global Warming which are supposed to turn the two thirds of the world into desert?

Some numbers might help you. The low last night was 31 degrees. The high during the day was 35. The low barely broke past records, only a couple of degrees colder than the previous record from 1980. The high broke all prior records and then danced on their shards laughing insanely. The previous low daytime temperature record was set in 1939 at 61 degrees. Today's highest afternoon temperature was 26 degrees lower. That's not seasonal temperature variation. That's unprecedented. A few more degrees and it would probably be snowing here.

More important than rotting corn, starving cows, and $400 propane bills, I know it's not going to be much fun for our 4-year-old to hunt Easter eggs in mittens, an overcoat, and hip-boots.

...

And, it was snowing in Dallas. Here in Washington the temperature has hovered in the 30's all day, with a near constant drizzle. I know Al and the globo warmers will say it is caused by global warming. Put me down as skeptical about this counter intuitive analysis.
