Extreme Temperature Diary- Sunday January 28, 2024/ Main Topic: Warm Winter Weather Affecting Minnesota Recreational Events – Guy On Climate


Dear Diary. In the future our climate will probably get so warm that the cancelation of winter sports and recreational events will be considered very minor issues compared with all the major disruptions and havoc brought about by the climate crisis. Nonetheless, during 2024 northern cities and states that depend on outdoor activities for tourism are starting to cry foul when it comes to the interruption of skating, skying, ice fishing, and hockey events. The Twin Cities area in Minnesota holds an annual ice sculpting event that is being affected, which draws in tourists and their dollars from many parts of the world. I’m sure that similar events across the planet are just starting to be affected by fickle weather from winters that are seeing warming trends worldwide.

Here are a few details on how mild winter weather, that I alluded to as “whiplash warmth” yesterday, is affecting traditional money-making activities across Minnesota from MPRnews:

This is the kind of ignoramus our education system produces today. And it's getting worse.

Yeah, wait, there's no way an Olympic skier could know more than you about winter sports and climate change.
