The Indian Government isn’t sure at all that any warming is man-made or would even be bad, and definitely won’t agree to cuts in gases

Another cool summer day for Chicago -- chicagotribune.com

What a summer! Many Chicago-area residents are shaking their heads -- some pleased by the lack of heat, others disappointed at the failure of hot weather to gain a foothold here. And extremely rare midsummer lake-effect rains were pouring down on sections of La Porte County, Ind., and Berrien County, Mich., on Friday evening -- just the latest meteorological twist in a summer of topsy-turvy weather across the region.

July has slipped to the coolest to date here in 42 years -- its 68.7 degree average temperature running nearly 5 degrees behind the long-term (138-year) average. Friday's 70-degree high was the first time in 53 years a July 17 temperature failed to break above 70 -- but you'd have to travel back to the 64-degree high 85 years ago to find a July 17 that was cooler.
