Early global warming?

I've been out lately, enjoying some unseasonably warm weather. It's a little freaky, really. Normally, I'd be gearing up for the outdoors like one of the characters from A Christmas Story -- like I was going deep sea diving! I didn't even have to wear gloves today. Yesterday, we were putting up our Xmas decorations in 50+ degree weather. I'm trying to enjoy it while it lasts. It's supposed to be a lot colder by the weekend. Some smart aleck will try to say that this is one of the supposed benefits of global warming. However, I'd say that I'd rather have snow and a nice healthy garden this summer, than warm weather at the end of November.
