In hard figures, the average contiguous U.S. temperature in January was 36.3 degrees F, or 5.5 degrees higher than the 1901-2000 long-term average, according to NOAA.
Global warming? i'm no climatologist but from local personal experience where did our winter go this year?(Northeast) seems to me Europe got it, so i'd say different places have cycles of hot and cold, If in fact things are warming up i guess the Question would be does the world wide usage of 90 million barrels of oil per day have any consequence or impact on the weather?.
All that snow and cold is because of global warming. Where are all the deniers?

From February 1, 2012 Sierra Snowpack Level Near Record Low « CBS San Francisco
ECHO SUMMIT (CBS/AP) – California’s Sierra Nevada snowpack measured a meager 15 inches in some places, officials announced Wednesday, bearing bad news to a state that depends on snowmelt to meet the water needs of 25 million people and more than a million acres of farmland.
Resorts are suffering as skiers turn up their noses at manmade snow, especially after last year’s prolific powder. And paltry snow means big worries this summer for farmers
No snow and unseasonably warm this winter due to global warming. Where are all the deniers?

That is because everything and anything is proof of man-induced global warming; too much snow, not enough sow, too hot, too cold, too many storms, too little storms, to much or too little rain, etc...
If the weather and the temperature for any given day of any month, does not mirror the exact same conditions for the first year of al Gore's life.... then.... duhhh.....duhhh....duhhhhhhh.... it's proof of man-induced global warming.... duh....duhhhhhhhhhhhhh.....

Look to the oceanic cycles (La Nina, El Nino)
Depends on where you are at, but the oceans cause shifts in various regions.
For instance, in Texas, a La Nina (which we are currently in) produces high pressure over the state (stagnant, slow or not moving) which results in mild winters and hot summers. Other areas will vary in weather patterns depending on the flow of the system with some places being colder, warmer, having more or less snow, etc... (if you check the historical records for those areas, you will see similar patterns)
Don't jump to conclusions and try to attach one thing to another. This is the folly of the field right now. They have a hypothesis to which they desperately are trying to prove (due to excessive influence of politics) and they are looking for anything and everything to create a correlation to their base premise.
When you practice science according to that approach, you can make anything seem plausible.
You must show your hypothesis consistently succeeds in every evaluation. It can not fail, or... if it does, it must be explained to a level that properly establishes the validity of the hypothesis.
Your requirement is contrary to science, as one only need bring up one specific fact that you can not properly account for and your hypothesis falls on its face.
Ok? I was merely using your logic from our previous discussions. Perhaps you would like me to post some quotes?

So, the real question is, show us where increased Co2 is the main driver of climate change and mans contributions are the significance in that driver.
Sorry, models will not be allowed. You must verify and validate your position providing an answer to every question and discrepancy we provide that conflicts with your hypothesis.
So models can't be used? Seems pretty convenient wouldn't you think? Seems you like moving those goal posts, especially in light of you using models in the past to show how the data doesn't support AGW. Convenient indeed.

It's funny you've taken an absolute approach and now you doing exactly what you are against

Once we've shown how you don't understand the models and the data that you've used as evidence against it, you've thrown away the models. And as we've discussed in a different thread (which I'll copy and paste here later) you've moved the goal posts to discredit theoretical science as you must not believe in and take advantage of the benefits of oil and gas exploration and medicine (to name just a few). And once I've shown the real life applications of what theoretical science offers, I'm engaging in logical fallacies and deflections according to you. Always moving those goal posts.
Four inches of global warming here this morning, and still coming down. Go hug Gore for me will ya.
And why does 4 inches of "global warming" prove anything?

Where's all the global warming deniers?
