The Union of Concerned Scientists are projecting that Global Warming will cause the summers in Indiana to migrate to Oklahoma via Missouri over the next century, while the winters will migrate to Virginia. Click on the map image above if you want. The scientists' predictions are based on the last 100 years of Indiana weather fed into a computer model of the current/future global climate. Before you pack away your snow pants, consider that similar computer models can't predict the daily weather and these are being used to predict 50 and 100 years ahead. LongRangeWeather.com has an alternate view and numberswatch.com keeps track of all of the things the media says global warming will cause -- many of them complete opposites.
