Now don't get too excited, this is only a scientific prediction of doom and gloom.

Heck they could be wrong (http://time-proxy.yaga.com/time/archive/printout/0,23657,944914,00.html)



a growing number of scientists are beginning to suspect that many seemingly contradictory meteorological fluctuations are actually part of a global climatic upheaval. However widely the weather varies from place to place and time to time, when meteorologists take an average of temperatures around the globe they find that the atmosphere has been growing gradually cooler for the past three decades. The trend shows no indication of reversing. Climatological Cassandras are becoming increasingly apprehensive, for the weather aberrations they are studying may be the harbinger of another ice age.


Telltale signs are everywhere —from the unexpected persistence and thickness of pack ice in the waters around Iceland to the southward migration of a warmth-loving creature like the armadillo from the Midwest.Since the 1940s the mean global temperature has dropped about 2.7° F.

Sure could use some o' that global cooling here this summer. It's so hot here I'm almost willing to put up with a little fallout for a nuclear winter. ;)
