Don't worry, global warming will kick in and the ice will melt and the seas will rise... by 7PM tonight.

Maybe you need to post something like this in the science forum...

Nowhere on that site does it say Lake Superior ports are closed, as a matter of fact shipping on the lake began in March...

I guess nobody told the crews still running ice breakers...

Same with Ohio. Coldest on record in 20 years.

And a link you need to read: Global Analysis - January 2014 | State of the Climate | National Climatic Data Center (NCDC)


January 2014 was the warmest January on record for the Southern Hemisphere, and the 7th warmest January on record for the Northern Hemisphere(as far as land temperatures go). Globally, this was the 4th warmest January.

Is that according to the old unadjusted numbers or the new and improved v3.2.0 numbers?

"With v3.1.0, the adjusted annual global land surface air temperature trend for 1901‐2011 was 0.94°C/Century. Using data from version 3.2.0 this trend is 1.07°C/Century."


If you can't make the present hotter, just make the past (pre-1970) colder!

Well, I still see some blue - cooler regions - on those maps, so "clearly" there's no global warming (despite nearly the whole planet being red - warmer than normal.) Also, your climate maps don't predict the temperature in my city 50 years from now, so "clearly" all climate science is a liberal lie and we should ignore any other data.

*removes idiot climate change denier hat*

Anyone who is still at this point denying the facts because they "don't like liberals," or because "this winter was cold in a few spots," or because "climate change can't exactly predict everything so it must be useless" should be ashamed of themselves. They are the types of people who would plan outdoor events for a day with a 99% chance of rain - because it's not 100% - and who would ignore an F5 tornado warning for their subdivision until given the exact windspeed of the tornado. Unreal...

How about it's bull ****!

Can we please end this ignorant lunacy now?

Or, will you be honest enough to post similar pretty photos when the next record heat wave strikes? Don't bother to answer - we already know you won't... sad what passes for reasoning around here...

Get educated.

Both sides make that mistake born of ignorance though.

One landfalling hurricane this season and watch the global warming nuts go more nuts.

In other news - I'm 5'3", and Abraham Lincoln was 6'4", so clearly average height has decreased significantly in the last 150 years.
