More than a wee bit of condescension, eh?

Consider this:

In 2010 the US experienced its coldest winter in 25 years, according
to the National Climatic Data Center. At the same time, it was also
Canada's warmest. Ditto for most of Europe, including this past
winter where 600 perished from cold related causes ... ie, they
****ing froze to death. How "mild" is that?


Hard to believe but the believers have actually concocted a
complicated explanation that the harsh winters are a result of global
warming.

All along I have contended that winter following summer is the leading
cause for colder and and more harsh lower temperature.

I get my prediction data from the world renown calendar.

Just to get you back on track, Leon, one of the predictions of the
global warming crowd is that it will lead to more extremes. Hope you
guys get some rain soon ...


We really do not need rain. We have had about 30 inches so far this year. I
got an inch on Sunday and about 4 inches about 3~4 weeks ago.

This simmer has been considerably cooler/less warm than last summer but because
of the rain it has been much more muggy. Last summer was hotter but dryer so
it was not so uncomfortable. IMHO it has really only gotten rather warm in the
last 30 days. Ten years ago and for several years it was normal to be at these
temperatures in mid April.

As far as extremes go ten years ago we had more extreme temperatures than in
the pas 6 or so years. In 1983 I saw 2 full weeks of freezing temps every day
in Houston. That is extremely rare, and in 1989 we saw 7 degrees over night
and I have never seen it that cold here. In the last 5~7 years we have has
measurable snow fall at least 3 times, I had seen snow in Texas 2 times in the
previous 50 years.

We've had "extremes" in weather for as long as I can remember (45+ years) and
it's been going on for eons. Suddenly these "extremes" are now the result of
global warming, which of course makes them a big problem that WE caused and
should feel compelled to solve? Like I said earlier, even if we completely put
the Earth back the way we found it, do we *really* think that Mother Nature is
somehow going to behave herself and revert to "normal" weather patterns? Of
course not, because the damage has already been done, and we can never forgive
ourselves...
