Is too. Is not. Is too. Is not.

Y'all know what you should be concerned about? The fact that these winter storms are being named. Check your homeowner's policies. It probably has a statement that if the damage is caused by a named storm your deductible is suspended and your new deductible is a percentage of the damage, typically 10% but some go up to 20%.

One can say "ice caps may be turning to gold" and say as much as Gore did.

We're talking about cons here, they scoff at education. Is it really surprising they have no idea what they're talking about?

Oh I think you know exactly why these posts are allowed.

Lake Michigan is not frozen over. End of failed thread.

Once the lakes freeze over that should go down. "Lake Effect" snow is due to the moisture picked up as the wind blows across the Great Lakes. Buffalo's snow fall dropped when Lake Erie froze over in the winter.

Yes, because now that "global warming" has been rebranded and recycled, you can point to any weather event that is even slightly out of the norm and say it's "climate change" !!!!

Surely, you understand the difference between weather and climate.

Actually, I don't give a hoot whether or not the current climate issues are *caused by humans*. But, if humans can do something to mitigate the problem, and don't do it... that is on us as a species, and on the administration & party in charge, no matter who it is.
