Unreal: Top Yahoo Headline- "Analysis: How Global Warming Makes Blizzards Worse"
Posted by Jim Hoft on Wednesday, February 10, 2010, 11:46 AM
They just won’t let it go…
Washington DC is closed down again.
The latest snowstorm shatters local records in Chicago.
Baltimore hit a snow record!
Big cities are shut down.
After Climategate, Glaciergate, Amazongate and the cold hard facts on the ground it’s become obvious that manmade global warming is a scam.
But the leftists just can’t face reality…
The former news magazine known as TIME claimed today that “Global Warming Makes Blizzards Worse.”
As the blizzard-bound residents of the mid-Atlantic region get ready to dig themselves out of the third major storm of the season, they may stop to wonder two things: Why haven’t we bothered to invest in a snow blower and, also, what happened to climate change? After all, it stands to reason that if the world is getting warmer – and the past decade was the hottest on record – major snowstorms should become a thing of the past, like Palm Pilots and majority rule in the Senate. Certainly that’s what the Virginia state Republican Party thinks: the GOP aired an ad last weekend attacking two Democratic Congressmen for supporting the 2009 carbon-cap-and-trade bill, and using the recent storms to cast doubt on global warming.
Brace yourselves now – this may be a case of politicians twisting the facts. There is some evidence that climate change could in fact make such massive snowstorms more common, even as the world continues to warm. As the meteorologist Jeff Masters points out in his excellent blog at Weather Underground, the two major storms that hit Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington, D.C., this winter – in December and during the first weekend of February – are already among the 10 heaviest snowfalls those cities have ever recorded. The chance of that happening in the same winter is incredibly unlikely.
Unreal. These delusional statists will never stop.

Yeah, blizzards will be more common, just like global warming makes Cat 5 hurricanes more common after Katrina. Uh huh.
Righard Bagg commented:
Its interesting that this idiot calls his site “Weather Underground”. Judging from the damage that Climate change crap causes, and could severely cripple the United States with the cap-and-tax scheme, It stands to reason that an Obama supporter would be associated with something called Weather Underground..

The Time article included the following statement:
“Weather is what will happen next weekend; climate is what will happen over the next decades and centuries. And while our ability to predict the former has become reasonably reliable, scientists are still a long way from being able to make accurate projections about the future of the global climate.”
To me climate is compendium of past regional weather data over decades, centuries, millennia, and longer periods of time. Climate data (history) may be indicative of future weather over varying time periods.
The Times article is simply another illustration of how the global warming fanatics in association with the compilcit media have merged “weather” and “climate” into synonyms that are applied to fit whatever circumstances they choose. It is Orwellian newspeak.

Pinkie French commented:
I think these massive snow storms are God’s way of telling politicians how full of $%&^ they are and that there is no such thing as man caused global warming. You would think they would have figured that out after the data gatherers got caught lying about the data. Idiots need to be drug tested, because members of congress are on something.
kansas commented:
I don’t know what weather person they are using who has become more reliable predicting the weather, but the one’s around Kansas City haven’t gotten one right yet this season. They run around yelling that the sky is falling, get everyone to buy lots of supplies and stay home while nothing happens.

NovemberReign commented:
Its a rather convenient argument the wacky left is using here. If it snows like crazy its climate change. If it doesn’t snow it’s because of global warming. If Toyota recalls a Prius it’s because I drive a Ford. Now I see how it all works. P.S. Can someone call Al Gore and tell him my driveway needs to be shoveled again.

Canthisbe commented:
The mere fact that some people are still denying the undisputable fact that man-made global warming has occurred and is getting worse and that we will be past the “tipping point” in days, if not minutes, when we can still save the world, is irrefutable proof that global warming is occurring and spiraling out of control. Every credible scientist worth his government grant knows that extreme heat can cause people to lose their minds and these “deniers” have without question lost their minds. Therefore, we must be experiencing extreme global warming. If you disagree, that just irrefutably proves my point beyond any dispute and without any doubt. If you agree, you have lost your mind. Either way, the end result is absolute proof of global warming.

TIME? The magazine that THIS Superbowl week has a crushed football on the cover with the headline: “What’s Wrong with Football?
The crisis in schools…”
The Left hates football. It teaches guys to take physical hits without crumbling. Can’t have THAT life skill no no no no.

How come it only snows when it is below freezing outside!!! Last time I checked, below freezing is cold, not warm.

Why hasn’t the MSM tried to find Al Gore to ask him about the two feet of global warming that has fallen on Washington DC in the past week? I’m sure big Al would have some kind of scientific explanation to satisfy any and all questions. I mean he is a Noble Peace prize winner isn’t he?
Rico commented:
Earlier today, Beck replayed the msnbc clip of a guy telling someone why “the snowpocalypse proves their IS GW”. He said that “because of GW, air at a given temperature can hold more moisture”. Didja get that? Air at 32 degrees can hold more moisture THESE DAYS than it could in years past. GW HAS CHANGED THE GAS LAWS THAT HAVE BEEN IN EFFECT SINCE, OH, THE BEGIINING OF TIME. Save us, we are m.e..l…t…i…n….g!

Let me walk you guys through this:
Two conditions are necessary for a record breaking snowstorm:
1. Temperatures below freezing
2. Record amounts of precipitation
1 Isn’t hard to come by. Even if every inch of the planet was 5 degrees warmer year-round, there’d still be months of sub-freezing weather in the area hit by snowmaggedon.
2 However is a little more key. Snowmaggedon isnt a record low temperature storm, it’s a record precipitation one. Precipitation comes from water vapor which originates from evaporation. Evaporation is caused by..hmmm..warm temperatures over bodies of water. Ever heard of lake effect snow?
So let’s think hard about this. If the globe, which is more than 2/3′s water, heats on the whole, that would hypothetically cause more precipitation, right. Well that’s exactly what climate models predict, and that’s exactly what happened during snowmaggedon.
It’s a really simple fact, try to wrap your heads around it: A record snowstorm is a precipitation event, not a temperature event.

“There is some evidence that climate change could in fact make such massive snowstorms more common, even as the world continues to warm.”
There is actually some truth in it. A climate change, depending on what direction it would take, could make massive snowstorms more common. That is true.
But does the world continue to warm?
Even the CRU boss said that only 10 to 20% of the surface even show warming. Which is hardly spectacular, unusual or scary.
Curious how the sleep phase of the sun will work out for all the Warmers. The one we’re expecting to start soon.
Really, I’m more worried about the sun going to sleep for a while. Because when that happens. The main engine for our climate taking a nap? That could get very ugly.
I wonder if these nutjobs will ever understand that the climate has changed in the past and will continue to change in the future.

The New York Times joins in the chorus: global warming = more snow.
http://www.nytimes.com/2010/02/11/science/earth/11climate.html
It’s hard to be proved wrong about global warming when you claim it is responsible for droughts, lack of snow, excessive snow, earthquakes, tsunamis, etc. If we spend a bunch of money to “fight” “global warming” and things cool down, it will be claimed that our efforts worked, even if the same thing might have happened had we done nothing. If we do nothing, the crazies will keep preaching the end of the world, just pushing it a little farther and farther into the future as each prediction does not come to pass. There is no way to prove global warming is false, and that’s the biggest clue that it IS false.
Douglas commented:
630 million tons of CO2 will be breathed into the air by humans. The atmosphere weighs 1.5 times 10 to the 15th tons. But I’m sure the biosphere still appreciates the contribution to the life cycle.
By the way, if CO2 is on the increase it’s because the warmer oceans cannot hold as much. Let’s keep the horse before the cart.Warm oceans cause a rise in CO2. Plants love that stuff. Lets go green and create a large Carbon footprint.
The life on this planet is Carbon based.
