Minnesota the “1st Fastest Warming State” — Whoo hoo!


Check out this graphic by Climate Central. It shows Minnesota being the leader for winter warming from 1970 to 2012! Unfortunately, as usual, we do not do well when at the top and so a great deal of snow fell this winter and more is forecast for next week.

Given the equinox does not come until March 20 at 11:02 GMT, I remain hopeful for Spring. I am invested in warmer weather having bought tickets to opening day for the Minnesota Twins on April 1. Perhaps that was a bit foolish, but at least I will fit in with the theme for this day.  Also, I predict that our baseball team will make it to the playoffs.   Mark my words.

    Bold prediction on the twins. As a big Twins fan, I hope you are correct. However, I think if everything goes right, the upside is about 78 wins, i.e. not playoff bound. I like the optimism, though. When you go to the game on opening day, the Twins will be tied for First place.
