Awesome 👌. Thank you!

The big complaint from global warming in Minnesota is the Snow Melt and then REFREEZING - so more ice and it's very dangerous for older people.

"Graupel, also called soft hail or snow pellets, is precipitation that forms when supercooled water droplets are collected and freeze on falling snowflakes, forming 2-5 mm balls of rime. The term graupel is the German language word for sleet. Graupel is distinct from hail and ice pellets"

"The Karner blue butterfly, for example, depends on ants. Ants are attracted to Karner blue butterfly larvae because they excrete a sugary liquid called honeydew. Without ants tending the larvae, the populations are likely to suffer from increased predation. We don't yet know what kinds of functions are lost when the Karner blue butterfly disappears, but certainly we would lose the beauty they bring to the world." - Wow - I was a volunteer in WI for a Karner Blue survey. So I get to see a lot of them in one day - or several. Very beautiful. www.dnr.state.mn.us/mcvmagazine/issues/2020/jul-aug/insects.html
