We're just a few days into December and Charlotte, NC, just got hammered. Trees and power lines are covered in an inch of ice, and they're all snapping and falling all over the place. I forget how many thousands of people are without power. And it's supposed to be below freezing again tonight.
This ain't the Great White North, folks. This is almost in South Carolina. This is about the same latitude as the Mediterranean, and they aren't known for snowfall.
So the next time you see some environmentalist whining about how we're melting all the ice caps or some such, kick him in the nuts.
