Wow, your predictions are way
Wow, your predictions are way off for October
Global warming
If you would do the research instead of listening to the alarmists who would control $ for new green solutions (and bear in mind what you're seeing and who put it out) you will find the earth has been in a warming trend because that's what it does naturally. when it's over it will go back again. There is global warming but not caused by us. The biggest problem we have is the population is to large and we don't have the sense to address that issue. So you cant look back 100 yrs or even 1000 years. You have to go back as far as you can.

Something Has Changed, But It’s Not The Sun
While it’s true our sun is giving less energy to our planet, the planet’s surface temperature has been soaring since 1960. Check out the NASA BLOG February 13, 2020, 14:02 PST
There Is No Impending 'Mini Ice Age'
As for brutally cold winters and insufferably hot summers with too much rain... that’s just how it’s been in the Midwest for several years now. These days I’m surprised when the crops do well!
SE Michigan
Ask a farmer about getting equipment into fields during planting AND harvest seasons since 2011.
The earth has been in a
The earth has been in a GLOBAL COOLING PATTERN for at least 10 years people! We have been lied to about global warming for
years as well & when that did not work the term was changed to climate change. About ready to jump off a chair with a rope!
Ya'll enjoy another brutal winter for 2020/2021. I am going to Florida!!

To make any long range plans based on long range weather forecast is an exercise in futility if you live in MI. The furthest you can look out with any hope of accuracy (barely) is a week or two. For the daily forecast look out the window to confirm.
@KB Second that Solar Minimum!
This solar cycle is indeed influencing the weather. Our ionosphere is contracted & much colder than normal. Crops aren't growing as well since the sun isn't as strong. The crops aren't able to balance the air as optimally as normal. The sun isn't blowing away the cosmic radiation since we are in solar minimum therefore we are in an "Earth Microwave" getting cooked.
Weather
If you live in Michigan you know no one can predict the weather. Best thing to do is look out the window and dress for what you see. If you don’t like that MOVE somewhere else!
Solar minimum
Don't see any references to one of the deepest solar minimums in recent history. Would be strange not to have any effect.
Weather
Since the whole Global Warming thing showed up Michigan has been cold every summer. Nights are rarely above 60. I know I can't change it. But I'm sooooo sick of it. Seems I'm never getting out of the winter blues. I never want to do anything. Why plant a garden. Why go swimming. It's always chilly out. I'm with Joe. Step off a chair with a rope!!!!
