Have you looked at the website these guys run? Pretty interesting stuff. They talk about the different cycles which have affected human history, such as "cool-dry," and "warm-wet." They postulate that the 1990's and early 2000's was a "warm-wet" period, which is best for prosperity. But "warm-dry" is the worst, which last took place in the 1930's. They think this might return in the 2030's, causing more hardship and woe. Not what I want to hear.
Now I need to examine the historical rainfall patterns for Syracuse in the 1930's and see how dry they were. I need to make sure I'm in the right place if it's gonna be another dust bowl in 20 years...lol.
Or maybe we'll get lucky and a bunch of super-volcanoes will go off over the next 20 years and put us in the deep freeze.

That's interesting. I've also noted in my area that we went through 4 difference cycles since 1900. The first few decades were cold and dry, the next few were warm and dry, then the decades were cold and wet, and finally, the past 30 years have been warm and wet.

Interesting! We are seeing some similarities to the 1930s lately. Locations might not be the same but the overall intensity maybe with the drought (Western US)? Maybe we're in that warm-dry now? What would qualify it to be called that? After 10-20 yrs worth? Then again how come no cool-wet(snow) period?
I always wonder if I'm in the "right spot" if you know what I mean. lol. But then I realize the human life span and I may not be around when "it happens". lol
I didn't know where to put this so don't kill me..
Seattle Times writes "Glacier on Mount St. Helens is growing and advancing but worldwide glaciers are retreating" .. This guy shows that he doesn't agree with second statement in fact 90% of glaciers globally are growing. Italy, Tibet, Sweden, ect.. See at the end of this post.
This could be one of those general public not able to do their own research so rely on news publications for info which in this case could be wrong. I say "could" because I myself haven't looked into it but I trust Robert more then the media.
