Where is Al Gore when you need him?

And I think it's the second snowiest year in Boston's history.

Get ready for the posts from the moonbat leftist here that it is "climate change" now and not "global warming". When one lie is disproven, they simply make up another one to promote their agenda. Telling the truth is not what Libs care about.

Gentleman,

Can you please Google Thermo Haline Convection Current for me. THCC is the acronym. I'm just going to point out last week Anchorage Alaska temp was warmer than 38 other states. No sense of getting mad at each other and ridiculing. Just know that there are models that predicted this very phenomena and YES it's due to global warming. 60-90 degrees parallel they are experiencing unprecedented warmth.

Told you guys. They just can't help themselves.

I love the "climate change" moniker they try to scare all the idiots with. Has the climate ever not changed since it's been recorded? Of course it hasn't. Yes, the earth is gradually warming since we're still coming out of an ice age. Are humans contributing to it? Of course, but it's not as big of an influence as they lead on.

Is this the first time it happened? Will it happen again next year?

You are correct but it should soon become the snowiest year in Boston's history. Damn heatwave...

Quote:Boston may hit a snowfall record this weekend as another round of snow moves in Sunday night.

Models show the system bringing 3 to 6 inches across the region, but that may be enough to topple the snowfall total record for Boston.

"I know you don't want to hear about it, but it's only 3 to 6 inches of snow for us. That's pretty much a dusting this year," StormTeam 5's meteorologist Mike Wankum said.

Currently, Boston's 2014-15 snow total sits at 102 inches -- just 5.6 inches shy of the current record set in 1995-96 of 107.6 inches.

The next possibility for snow or rain is Wednesday.

Tell me"..........I gots to know..........

Did anybody Google THCC?

I'm hoping my 10k mobile home lot two miles from the water becomes the 250k beachfront lot of my daughter.

As we speak, I have 3" of snow on the ground in Dallas.

Difference between weather and climate. Learn it clown. Scientific community nearly unanimous suggests climate change is occurring for the worst, not sure why people with no education are arguing. Heck, to understand this phenomenon all you need is basic high school science.

So snowing proves global warming isn't real?

Quote:Last week Secretary of State John Kerry warned graduating students at Boston College of the "crippling consequences" of climate change. "Ninety-seven percent of the world's scientists," he added, "tell us this is urgent."

Where did Mr. Kerry get the 97% figure? Perhaps from his boss, President Obama, who tweeted on May 16 that "Ninety-seven percent of scientists agree: #climate change is real, man-made and dangerous." Or maybe from NASA, which posted (in more measured language) on its website, "Ninety-seven percent of climate scientists agree that climate-warming trends over the past century are very likely due to human activities."

Yet the assertion that 97% of scientists believe that climate change is a man-made, urgent problem is a fiction. The so-called consensus comes from a handful of surveys and abstract-counting exercises that have been contradicted by more reliable research.

One frequently cited source for the consensus is a 2004 opinion essay published in Science magazine by Naomi Oreskes, a science historian now at Harvard. She claimed to have examined abstracts of 928 articles published in scientific journals between 1993 and 2003, and found that 75% supported the view that human activities are responsible for most of the observed warming over the previous 50 years while none directly dissented.

Ms. Oreskes's definition of consensus covered "man-made" but left out "dangerous"—and scores of articles by prominent scientists such as Richard Lindzen, John Christy, Sherwood Idso and Patrick Michaels, who question the consensus, were excluded. The methodology is also flawed. A study published earlier this year in Nature noted that abstracts of academic papers often contain claims that aren't substantiated in the papers.

Quote:In 2013, John Cook, an Australia-based blogger, and some of his friends reviewed abstracts of peer-reviewed papers published from 1991 to 2011. Mr. Cook reported that 97% of those who stated a position explicitly or implicitly suggest that human activity is responsible for some warming. His findings were published in Environmental Research Letters.

Mr. Cook's work was quickly debunked. In Science and Education in August 2013, for example, David R. Legates (a professor of geography at the University of Delaware and former director of its Center for Climatic Research) and three coauthors reviewed the same papers as did Mr. Cook and found "only 41 papers—0.3 percent of all 11,944 abstracts or 1.0 percent of the 4,014 expressing an opinion, and not 97.1 percent—had been found to endorse" the claim that human activity is causing most of the current warming. Elsewhere, climate scientists including Craig Idso, Nicola Scafetta, Nir J. Shaviv and Nils- Axel Morner, whose research questions the alleged consensus, protested that Mr. Cook ignored or misrepresented their work.

Rigorous international surveys conducted by German scientists Dennis Bray and Hans von Storch —most recently published in Environmental Science & Policy in 2010—have found that most climate scientists disagree with the consensus on key issues such as the reliability of climate data and computer models. They do not believe that climate processes such as cloud formation and precipitation are sufficiently understood to predict future climate change.

Surveys of meteorologists repeatedly find a majority oppose the alleged consensus. Only 39.5% of 1,854 American Meteorological Society members who responded to a survey in 2012 said man-made global warming is dangerous.

Quote:We could go on, but the larger point is plain. There is no basis for the claim that 97% of scientists believe that man-made climate change is a dangerous problem.

Kaplony. Your WSJ article is out of the opinion pages. There is a reason for this. You would not find that article in the science section.

In DC we still have more than 6 inches of snow pack that has been there for at least two weeks. Everywhere except main roads of course.

Science is incapable of predicting weather trends, hell they didn't even get the weather right for a 48 hour span in Raleigh NC, how in the world can they predict global weather trends. While all the news was about how cold the weather has been this year and how snow storms disrupted life, the Global Warming LIARS will once again say 2015 was even warmer than 2014 and will be the hottest year on record.

Warmth is bad? That would make cooling good then, right?

That is so wrong and I don't care if you call yourself a scientist or not, you're an imbecile if you believe that.

Before anyone that might be inclined argues with me... history man. Google it.
