Ice free Arctic by 2005!Why did warmers say no more snow?
And that prediction was published in what scientific peer reviewed journal?Ice free Arctic by 2005!
The predictions were that snow would be very rare by now.Key Points
- When averaged over the entire year, snow covered an average of 3.25 million square miles of North America during the period from 1972 to 2020 (see Figure 1).
- The extent of snow cover has varied from year to year. The average area covered by snow has ranged from 3.0 million to 3.6 million square miles, with the minimum value occurring in 1998 and the maximum in 1978 (see Figure 1).
- Between 1972 and 2020, the average extent of North American snow cover decreased at a rate of about 1,870 square miles per year. The annual average area covered by snow during the most recent decade (2011–2020) was 3.25 million square miles, which is about 2 percent smaller than the annual average extent during the first 10 years of measurement (1972–1981)—a difference of 77,700 square miles, or an area approximately the size of Nebraska (see Figure 1).
- Decreases in snow cover have largely occurred in spring and summer, whereas winter snow cover has remained fairly steady over the time period studied and fall snow cover has increased (see Figure 2). Spring and summer snow cover can have a particularly important influence on water supplies.
- Between 1972 and 2013, the U.S. snow cover season became shorter by nearly two weeks, on average (see Figure 3). By far the largest change has taken place in the spring, with the last day of snow shifting earlier by 19 days since 1972. In contrast, the first date of snow cover in the fall has remained relatively unchanged.

Why are we getting these extreme cold storms?The predictions were that snow would be very rare by now.
Tell that to the people in Virginia and Kentucky this week who were caught on the freeway in a snow storm.
Plus where I live in the panhandle of Florida we had snow flurries a few days ago.
Snow is not rare. Accurate predictions by global warming advocates are.
You keep mentioning Dr. Viner. How about you cut and paste some articles saying he never made that prediction. I tried to find some and came up empty but found twenty more articles that say he did make the prediction that snow would be rare by now.You're melting down faster than noobs usually do here. You've already descended into shitposting stupid memes. That's when we know the meltdown has started.
Actually, anyone who reads them can instantly see that they're propaganda.
Your first article quoted _one_ scientist, Dr. Viner, more than once. He was wrong. At the time he was talking, all the other scientists thought he was wrong. It's highly dishonest of your side to only refer to Dr. Viner, so it's what you do by default.
Then it quoted someone named Adam Watson, who was not a climate scientist.
Then the author made a vague unsupported claim about what the IPCC supposedly said, without backing it up in any way.
You second article quoted ... the editor of a ski magazine. Yeah, you're doing some great science there.
You hit a foul ball endlessly repeating the Dr. Viner quotes, then you whiffed three times. "Yer out!", the umpire says. Thanks for using your own sources to disprove your claims, and saving me the trouble.
Now, I'll tell you what AGW theory actually predicted, which is what we see.
Southern areas tend to get less snowfall. It doesn't get cold enough to snow.
Northern areas tend to get more snow, because warmer air holds more moisture, and it's still cold enough to snow.
Fall and spring snow cover levels drop, because of warmer temps melt the snow. Winter snow depths can get larger, because there's more snow up north, and it's not warm enough to melt it.

How are you not laughing when your own posts show: temperatures vaying by 40 degrees in the Arctic and a .5 anomaly!

Not by any significant portion of the scientific community.The predictions were that snow would be very rare by now.
The bad predictions remain.That’s the problem. I really do not beleive Global Warming is as big of a problem as it is portrayed but I am not denying that it might exist and become far more serious in the future.Not by any significant portion of the scientific community.
This has been shown to you. But I don't think you understand that your attempt has been obliterated.
The bad predictions remain.That’s the problem. I really do not beleive Global Warming is as big of a problem as it is portrayed but I am not denying that it might exist and become far more serious in the future.
But the Global Warming prophets continue to make extreme predictions that fail to come true and wonder why after half a century of such predictions fewer people are listening.
New York City is not a city like Venice filled with canals and Gondolas. We are still having blizzards and snow storms and freezing temperatures. The Arctic is not ice free.
But still politicians and some scientist keep making ridiculous predictions. For example…
In 12 years people will look back on that prediction and laugh.
My point is that foolish predictions hurt your cause more than they help.
It seems some Global Warming advocates are attempting to create change by scaring the living shit out of people with their outlandish predictions People are not as stupid as liberals think and people have LONG memories.
If you want to advert a potential climate crisis in a century or two from now it might be a good idea to stifle outlandish predictions.
It is you who is desperate.I just said he made the prediction. It is drunkeness, stupidity or dishonesty that causes you to keep saying such stupid things?
You said many scientists were saying snow was a thing of the past, yet you can only come up with _one_. You made up some stupid shit, you got caught, and now you're flailing and crying. Who exactly do you think you're fooling? Even your fellow cultists all know you're lying. They just approve of your lying.
So, nice shitposting meme frenzy, cult boi. I do so love seeing cultists get triggered. Now proceed to run from the topic yet another time. No matter, we can always track you down by the smell of your soiled britches.
Imagine telling the people caught on the freeway in Virginia a few days ago that snow was a thing of the past and what they experienced must have been just a bad dream.But, snow is a thing of the past and the Arctic is ice free now right?
Why are we getting these extreme cold storms?
Depends on what I want to do when I get there. Not many places to ski in Tahiti.So, when you want to go on a winter vacation, do you go someplace warmer or colder then where you are?
You do realize that the Time front cover you posted is fake. Of course you do, you are a liar, just as is the person that created that is.It is you who is desperate.
For one thing unlike what you just stated here are more than just one scientist who have predicted rare snow.

Where are the snowless winters that have been predicted?
Over the years, we have seen many dire predictions of snowless winters. So far, the predictions have been 100% wrong. Top 5 failed 'snow free' and 'ice free' predictions 1.) Scientists predict...www.americanthinker.com
I personally like posting memes. You don’t like me doing that because some people may have find them funny and laugh and you feel they are laughing at you.
Here’s another list of failed climate predictions.

The big list of failed climate predictions
Reader “Sasha” responding to Jeff Alberts in comments provided a large list that I thought was worth sharing. Submitted on 2014/04/02 at 8:37 am The question wasn’t “what do people thin…wattsupwiththat.com
Plus a few more cartoons. …
