El Nino: Spanish meteorlogical term for NOBODY KNOWS WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON.

According to this national weather service article: (http://www.noaanews.noaa.gov/stories2005/s2367.htm)

this year is a weak el nino year. The unusual west coast weather is driven by something called the Madden-Julian Oscillation or MJO.

actually, it is the tsunamis. :fm: at least that is what a guy told me down in Costa Rica, trying to explain the unusually wet weather for their dry season.

But seriously.. hiking through knee and waste deep slush in rain at treeline shortly after sunrise during early may on the Tenmile Range doesn't seem right.

Did you drive anywhere today?

jtoke, please do not feed the trolls.

[Jtoke]

these trolls you speak of...are they carnivorous or herbivorous or omnivorous? All I've got is cat food.

[f2f]

trolls feed on attention. check out bgmark13's post history if you don't believe me.
