Is the 2016 blizzard just a bad case of global warming?! Heh heh heh

We've had record snowfalls in many Eastern states over the last 48 hours.

Well, here's some direct quotes by experts in the past, I wonder how their predictions panned out. Let's not let the facts get in our way now, leftist whackjobs may proceed to put heads back in the sand, on the count of 3...

"Winters with strong frost and lots of snow like we had 20 years ago will cease to exist at our latitudes.”
Mojib Latif, Max Planck Institute for Meteorology, Hamburg, 1 April 2000

Within a few years winter snowfall will become a very rare and exciting event. … Children just aren’t going to know what snow is.”
David Viner, Climatic Research Unit, University of East Anglia, 20 March 2000

--- and we had record high temps in December, continuing a string of several abnormal years in a row.

What's your point?

Point is these are supposed scientists and experts, and their predictions failed epically. Just like Al Gore's prediction that the polar caps would be entirely melted by 2013 and we'd all be under 10 feet of water now.

Now tell me, dumb fuck, was the temperatures colder than normal for January? Of course they were not. So what we have is a precipitation event. That is expected in a warming world, as warmer air carries more water vapor. And when it meets cold air, air below freezing, you get snow. Amazing what one has to explain to the idiots on these boards.

According to whom? The Sun is going through a period of low activity, dumbfuck! Two years of record snowfalls, and the same bunch of radical leftist assholes are still promoting this fabricated hoax.

In 2000 Dr. Michael Oppenheimer of the Environmental Defense Fund commenting (in a NY Times interview) on the mild winters in New York City: “But it does not take a scientist to size up the effects of snowless winters on the children too young to remember the record-setting blizzards of 1996. For them, the pleasures of sledding and snowball fights are as out-of-date as hoop-rolling, and the delight of a snow day off from school is unknown.”

I always wanted to go sailing or backpacking to the north pole!

June 2008, Ted Alvarez, Backpacker Magazine Blogs: “you could potentially sail, kayak, or even swim to the North Pole by the end of the summer. Climate scientists say that the Arctic ice…is currently on track to melt sometime in 2008.” [Shortly after this prediction was made, a Russian icebreaker was trapped in the ice of the Northwest Passage for a week.]

yah.. it's normal to have 25 inches of snow in NYC.

This winter we are getting lots of snow in the Cascades, but last winter, we had almost none. Average the two, and we are still short. And it is not just the Cascades.


Loss of Snowpack and Glaciers In Rockies Poses Water Threat by Ed Struzik: Yale Environment 360

When Rocky Mountain explorer Walter Wilcox hiked up to Bow Summit in Canada’s Banff National Park in 1896, he took a photo of a turquoise lake that later caught the eye of a National Geographic magazine editor. In the photo, which was eventually published, the glacier feeding the lake was just a mile upstream.

Since then, the snout of Peyto Glacier has receded more than three milesfrom the broad valley it carved out thousands of years ago. Remnants of ancient tree trunks the glacier bulldozed during those colder times are now being spit out in the wake of its recent retreat.

Scientists say that each year, the Peyto is losing as much as 3.5 million cubic meters of water — roughly the amount the city of Calgary, population 1.2 million, consumes in a day. About 70 percent of the Peyto’s ice mass is already gone, a retreat that will soon have a profound impact on the Mistaya and North Saskatchewan rivers, which the glacier helps nourish.

Peyto Glacier from near the current Bow Summit viewing platform in 1896 and from the viewing platform in 2011.​

The Peyto is a small example of much bigger things happening to glaciers and snowpack in the Rocky Mountains, which supply most of the stream flow west of the Mississippi River in the United States, as well as much of the water used in the Canadian provinces of Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba. Steadily rising temperatures are not only rapidly melting glaciers, but also have caused a 20 percent decline in spring snow cover throughout the Rockies since 1980, according to a study last year by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS).

That study said that equally as important as the decline of April snowpack is the timing of when that accumulated snow melts. As the Rocky Mountains warm, reduced winter snows are melting earlier in spring and summer, which can lead to a reduction in water supplies for drinking, irrigation, and hydropower production in key power-producing areas like the Columbia River basin in the Pacific Northwest. Runoff from snowpack alone provides 60 to 80 percent of the annual water supply for 70 million people in the American West, the USGS said.

no one calls it global warming. it's climate change. and people who know anything know that there it includes extreme climate conditions.

not that you'd know that.

The thread premise is further evidence of the ignorance and stupidity common to most on the right concerning the subject.

What's your point?

Several times over the past several decades patterns of heavy snowstorms were preceded by mild Decembers. This is all cyclical.

This one is more interesting. Watch this one instead. It's been going on for some time now. Enjoy

Where I live, we had a sizable amount of snow with this storm. It's January, it's winter, and as long as I can remember having lived here for over 40 years, it's likely to snow this time of year.

I expect Manhattan to be the largest ice skating rink in history right now considering this cold weather combined with the fact that Manhattan has been under water since 2008.
