I would take that as a forest fire in Colorado.

?

Don’t light matches before they were invented.

Play it cool – but stay warm.

Better hope there isn’t a change in the wind, or we might have a weenie roast…

Need to find somewhere else to store your booze!

Not sure?

it’s cold always cold everyday. except when it’s 60

OK, I don’t get it

We could use a tropical depression about now.

No more beanie weenie before I go on watch.

He’s lighting a fire (apparently with an accelerant), presumably to keep warm against incoming cold weather. From https://www.weather.gov/safety/cold-polar-vortex:

“The polar vortex is a large area of low pressure and cold air surrounding both of the Earth’s poles. It ALWAYS exists near the poles, but weakens in summer and strengthens in winter. The term “vortex” refers to the counter-clockwise flow of air that helps keep the colder air near the Poles. Many times during winter in the northern hemisphere, the polar vortex will expand, sending cold air southward with the jet stream. This occurs fairly regularly during wintertime and is often associated with large outbreaks of Arctic air in the United States. "

A normal cycle of the North Pole causing a cold-weather cycle in North America

Time to get a long-sleeve sweater.

me too

Proclaiming a volar vortex hit, yet they never even wear shoes.

Id-iotic weather.

Say what? It probably made sense to the cartoonist after the fourth beer.
