Now this is what Frankie boi's site gave me. Your site says something else. Guess we have to find a referee site.

Oh yeah, it says the heat wave is BS.
Gee according to OldRocks the North Pole is on Prince Patrick Island. The rest of the world thinks it`s north of Ellesmere Island which is way north of Prince Patrick Island. And Mould Bay Airport is at the southern part of Prince Patrick Island to boot:
CFS Alert has the closest land based Met-station to the pole
And there was no heat wave before, during and after Christmas:

It was -27 C the last time I checked....not 50 degrees above normal.
But that`s all the alarmists have.
Nothing but sensational forecasts that don`t materialize.
Just like all their pal-reviewed doomsday model forecasts
How often did they ridicule record cold temperatures as just a "cold day in Wasa wasa" like here:
www.usmessageboard.com...See what I mean...and now these freaks spend all their time looking for a Wasawasa warm spot...and that includes the media from where they get this "information" as well...Talk about hypocrisy !!!› US Discussion › Environment

This is not just "a cold day in Wasawasa" like the warm.org blogs like to call it...it`s a world wide climate event that spans the entire winter
