5 inches of snow for the Twins opener reminds us why we built the dome in the first place.
Old Met Stadium For 1965 Opener Global Warming isn't happening as fast as lawmakers hoped for as the Twin Cities gets a spring snowstorm dumping 5" to 8" of snow on opening day. Of course this year the game will be played in the dome, but a few blocks away the new "Outdoor" Twins stadium is being built and it won't have a retractable roof.
When deciding the design of the building I'm sure lawmakers took "Global Warming" into consideration thinking that if our weather is becoming more like Kansas, we don't need to spend the extra money and put on a roof. But sadly lawmakers were just being shnookered by smooth talking environmentalists, there is no Global Warming, in fact we are probably heading into more of a cooling period like the 60s and 70s. Maybe the Twins should sue Al Gore, take the money and build a roof. Cross-posted at Minnesotans For Global Warming. |
