LANSING, Mich. (Michigan News Source) – The polar vortex is marching across the country this week. With it came subzero temperatures and wind chills that turned nostrils into icicles. It promoted the closure of schools and forced the presidential inauguration inside. Now we see snow in places in the south we rarely see snow.

Even in Michigan, where hearty Michiganders are no strangers to winter’s bite, this week has tested their limits. As they bundled up, battled snowbanks, and wrestled with frozen car doors, one sarcastic thought probably crossed their frost-nipped minds: So, where’s that global warming when you actually need it?

All across social media, people are making fun of the Democrats’ global warming narrative, pointing out the irony of freezing temperatures in a supposedly warming world. Many were praising Trump for “fixing” global warming in only a day along the Gulf of America.

As the global debate over climate change continues to “heat up” – though clearly not enough for some – this week’s polar vortex has left Michiganders and many others in the country shivering in a state of icy desperation.
