July 5th 1985… 117 degrees Fahrenheit… St George Utah…! Now look back on June 2023… or better yet May 2023 which felt like the month of April. Although 8 billion people on the planet … yup EIGHT BILLION has an impact on climate – especially considering most forest fires originate from man-made activity and behavior, one has to admit S.Utah has been relatively cool this year. There is no doubt global warming is real, but there is also no doubt the SUN and its corresponding cycles are also a factor. Bottomline – jury is out… and we are long overdue for a pole shift anyway, so enjoy every day you can … < 2 months to go until College Football season … so relax… (new NCAA paradigm will be interesting)
