Perhaps you may have missed the tongue in cheek humor of the justaposition of the words "global warming" and the below freezing tempatures in two disparate locations???

It should get REALLY cold around the Great Lakes, however. From the today's
San Mateo Daily News:
A rarity: Great Lakes are ice-free in the middle of winter
PUT-IN-BAY, Ohio
....
For the first time that anyone in Put-in-Bay can remember, the Great Lakes
are ice-free in the middle of winter.... "There's essentially no ice at all"
said George Leshkevich a scientist who has studied Great Lakes ice for the
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration....
However, I have heard of a group called Alaskans for Global Warming. For
some locations global warming might be an improvement. For others a
disaster.

Ron,
It's always possible for me to miss something purportedly humorous.

NPR actually did a story last week about a renewed effort to establish
the long-sought Northwest Passage. Thanks to global warming, there may
eventually be a true Northwest Passage (a northern water route through
Canada from the Atlantic to the Pacific) once the ice cap melts
sufficiently to allow for year-round marine traffic in this area. Some
people can find a silver lining in any dark cloud of environmental
disaster.
Personally, I am still unconvinced that global warming is a genuine
threat to the world. The planets ecosystem is an incredibly complex
mechanism that has evolved over the millennia largely without our
knowledge or influence. It is the height of hubris to presume that
normal human actions can have such a disastrous impact on the world
(ignoring for the moment, the possibility of nuclear warfare, which
would almost certainly have such an impact). But I will maintain an
open mind and evaluate any objective evidence presented.

Oh, and Ron, don't forget good ol'
father Sun, his cycles and moods may
have something to do with the climate
on Earth,then of course there are
cycles in volcanism. When you think
of the scale of these forces, the depth
of our ignorance and the
comparitively minuscule volumes of
fossil fuels consumed compared to
just the carbon dioxide flux involved in
the vulcanism and undersea vents on
spreading plate boundariesthat circle
the globe, the whole concept starts to
raise a small smile on the face of the
healthy skeptic..

Ron,
Of course there is. "Winter" is that point in the Earth's rotation
around the sun at which the sun's rays hit the earth at their most
oblique and therefore least warming angle. This has so far occurred
pretty regularly and I don't think anyone, of the left or right, is
suggesting that that will stop.

Dear Allen;
Of course, there is a "winter". But "winter" is really just a mindset which can be overcome by positive thinking and global warming.
Much like Steinbeck's "Winter of Our Discontent" or James Goldman's Broadway play "The Lion In Winter" which ended up as a nice movie starring Peter O'Toole and Katharine Hepburn.
Respectfully Yours In Icicles and Snowstorms;
