global warming or new ice age?

Here is North Carolina the forsythias, magnolias, crab apples, and daffodils are blooming. The air is warm and the kids spend every afternoon riding their bikes around the block. Up in Maine it is a different story. A friend says that this is the most snow he has seen in 60 years. Just look at the piles of snow piled up from the driveway plowing, it is as high as the truck cab! See the ominous sky? Forecast of more snow today.
