Did you know that the weather we're currently experiencing is highly effected by an element that's been around since who knows when? It's called El Niņo and this element also has positive effects or benefits to us here in Florida.

El Niņo is also a larger short term factor when it comes to global changing temperatures than global warming itself is since it's effects can be measured more in terms of years whereas global warming effects are measured more in terms of decades if not centuries.

Anyway, it's not my intention to get into a topic of global warming in and of itself, so I won't delve any further into that topic. I just wanted to mention the El Niņo's connection to what's been happening and being discussed here. You can read more about this at the following web site:
