  1. Hey, I was just outside here in Vonda. Had to wear sunglasses and short sleeves. SUNGLASSES AND SHORT SLEEVES, I TELL YOU! If that isn’t proof of climate change and justification for alarmist reporting then I don’t know what is.

    Not sure if I can wear shorts here or if that restraining order only applies in Ontario. I should look into that.

  2. Funny, when it’s -30C, I’m amazed by the number of climate progressives that take off for warmer locales where the temp is in the 80s or 90s F.

  3. The Prairies get hot. Gee, who knew?
    But 87 F is pretty balmy compared to the temperatures (and “real feel”) we’re having in Indiana. Numerous days in the 90s and a couple when it hit 100/101. And more humidity than SK. But I’m not complaining. My garden is doing great.

  4. We are under a heat warning here in Calgary. A gorgeous day, some wind to keep us comfortable. Maybe got up to 85 today. Perhaps the “warning” was to make sure we knew not to take a sweater when going outside. Lunacy.

  5. Don’t care. Cutting hay and hope the weather holds. Have cut, raked and baled in higher temps. Normal prairie weather. Just would like a breeze to make it perfect as hay crops are heavy here.

    1. Hay baling and handling is one of those jobs that can only be done when it is damn hot.

  6. I’ve said it for YEARS … my local weather girl’s map keeps getting REDDER and REDDER … what used to be comfortably warm temperatures are now labeled as dangerous, life threatening HEAT!! And when the Central Valley of CA gets above 100 deg. F !!! The map turns a formerly unknown neon purple red that looks like cancerous burnt skin!!! Ohhhhhhhh mommaaaaaaaaa … “shelter in place”

  7. Yup. And our weather warning this afternoon told us that hail and high winds can cause property damage! Who knew???

  8. And why “Weather Network” disabled comments on their site some time ago. The last straw was trying to convince the unwashed that an obscure rodent no bigger than your thumb and residing on a 5 acre island somewhere in the South Seas was the world’s first victim of climate change. Yeah, sure it was.
    They took a righteous hammering in the coments which kind of renewed my faith in the general public.
    Short lived as it was.

    1. I absolutely flat refuse to ever check that POS site. Ever. Quick impression of the weather network every damned time there’s a cloud on the horizon- “MASSIVE THUNDERSTORM ON THE WAY!!!! WATCH HERE SO YOU DON’T DIIIIIEEEE!!! TRACK THE STORm!” A nice sunny day- “MASSIVE HEAT WAVE OF 22 degrees C!!!! TRY NOT TO DIIIIEEE!!!!” A skiff of snow and a little chilly- ” MASSIVE ARCTIC WEATHER NUCLEAR BOMB HITS THE PRAIRIES!!! WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW TO NOT DIIIIEEEE!!!”

      I’m going back outside.

    2. I would have thought the die out of the Woolly Mammoth would have been an earlier example of a climate change extinction.

  9. If you have The Weather Network app on your device, since a few updates ago, there’s a new tab at the bottom that says “Climate”, where one can go to get a concentrated stream of propaganda, as if the regular ‘news’ areas don’t offer enough of it, already!

    1. ” 20 years ago we only had 4 heat warning days.
      Now we have 40.

      Must be________?”

      …because they used to only issue those warnings when it was *really* going to be hot? Now they do it when it gets uncomfortably warm.

  10. What’s the point of weather apps unless they can push warnings to your phone incessantly?

    WEATHER WARNING: WINDS AS HIGH AS 20MPH WERE RECORDED IN YOUR AREA. SEEK SHELTER AS SOME RAIN MAY FOLLOW

    Yup…turned ‘ em all off along with the government alerts.

  11. Ha

    Where’s our Alberta Climate “hero” from Hollyweird.

    Leo di Chinook – nee Caprio..??
    Another typical all too arrogant Hollyweird f’ing Moron.
    …sorta along the lines of Neil Young and Hanoi Jane..no?

    3 people I would rejoice upon hearing drowned in Flash Flood…zero loss to mankind….oh and I damned nearforgot…the Turd & his UkroNazi Plut

  12. Climate Change.A.K.A Catastrophic Anthropogenic Global Warming is an intelligence test.
    Use it for your own enrichment.
    For a cult member will buy anything.
    Gullible ain’t the word.
    And it is your civic duty to ensure all members of Gang Green remain as poor as possible,for left with leisure and wealth they are proven to be constitutionally incapable of “Minding their own business”.
    Insisting upon their “Right” to manage our lives for us.

    Far better for all civilized men,if the Cult of Calamitous Climate be rewarded in this life,for their extreme idiocy.
