I noticed this morning that the trees on Main Street are starting to bud out. And, it's only March 10th in Montana!!! This is very different from the Montana winters I experienced as a youth in the 1950s and 1960s.
Whether one believes in climate change or not, it appears to be happening anyway.
A recent economic report prepared for the Montana Farmers Union indicates that warmer temperatures and drier summers are withering the future of Montana spring wheat, a major cash crop for state farmers.
If you are interested in reading Tom Lutey's article about this which appeared in the Billings Gazette on February 25, 2016, here's the link:

I actually believe what the climate scientists have been trying to tell us for years. We should pay attention.
