Scattered clouds with a high near 60 (average high for this date is 44, record high: 69). Sunset at 5:03 pm. Kickoff temperature 50, dropping to the mid-40s during the game. Light southeast wind.
Seriously, I’m happy to take tickets from anyone in the “too late/too cold” camp. My mom (class of 1970) is in town for the weekend and she hasn’t been to a Utah game since her college days. I’d love to surprise her.
Climatologists actually use 30 years (not 150) as the average. Yes, the globe is warming, but not at a rate were 70 deg at the end of November would be average, at least not in my lifetime!!
Not to get too political, but market forces are now working against fossil fuels for as much as any policy.
Deleted post due to being pointed out I hijacked the thread and not being optimistic.
Happy Thanksgiving all. Enjoy your families and some good food I hope
Good hell. There are categories for a reason. For the record, you raise valid points, yes. but give me a break. I’m not surprised a total pessimist like you would hijack a thread like this. Bad form.
Although factually accurate I think it was too inflammatory since there is an element on any chat space that would perceive any sort of climate science discussion to be tantamount to a proclamation of a “liberal agenda”. I was being a little hyperbolic with regard to being too pessimistic. If not for some blowing off steam and dissent to the coaching party line, what good is this forum for anyway? Cheers ladyinred
