WINTER MAY BE COLDEST IN 1000 YEARS
ABOVE: Britain's winter is the coldest since 1683 and close to being the chilliest in nearly 1,000 years Britain's winter is the coldest since 1683 and close to being the chilliest in nearly 1,000 years

BRITAIN’S winter is the coldest since 1683 and close to being the chilliest in nearly 1,000 years.
Latest figures reveal that the average temperature since December 1 has been a perishing -1C.
That makes it the second coldest since records began in 1659.
The chilliest on record was 1683/84, when the average was -1.17C and the River Thames froze over for two months.
ut with January and February to come, experts believe we could suffer the most freezing cold winter in the last 1,000 years.
The Met Office’s Charlie Powell said: “It’s rare to have cold this prolonged, with temperatures falling incredibly low.
“Temperatures will be down again by Sunday, with nights below freezing and daytimes below average at 3C to 5C. Our outlook forecast to January 26 shows temperatures 2C or 3C below average, frost and ice likely and the highest chance of snow or sleet over the northern half of the UK.”
Although official weather records only go back to 1659, weather experts said the centuries from 1100 to 1500, dubbed the “Medieval warm period”, would not have produced winters as cold as today.
So 2011 could end up being the coldest winter of the last millennium.
Brian Gaze, of The Weather Outlook, said: “It’s very unusual to have a sub-zero month.”

climate change = extreme volatility
hotter summers and colder winters
-
Why was it so cold 1000 years ago then?
-
Lol.
-
Meanwhile in central Russia, in my city it is +!!!!!!!
So no body freezes to death as you put it!

Notice how this statement is ignored by the liars supporting climate change theory.

Where would you rank "global warming" on the list of important issues? Somewhere between UFO's and steroids in baseball?
-
I will NEVER let this clip go.
-
1) It's cyclical. Al Gore is a whiny alarmist.
2) Mankind does affect it somewhat - EVEN ENERGY EXPERT SARAH FCKING PALIN ADMITTED THAT!
3) Global warming brings hotter summers and colder winters - there's a shitload more water present thanks to ice caps melting.

So you think she is an expert now?

it's really a case of BOTh sides being full of shite on this one.
Al Gore trying to get rich off scaring everyone into thinking without cap/trade, we'll all be under water in 20 years.
Repubs/Fox announcers falling out of their chairs laughing at cold winters, completely unaware that's what happens when hotter summers cause things like gas and water to move more than usual.
So really, everyone should STFU on this one.
(And I think palin is just as stupid as everyone else on the issue, as she believed man affects it, then changed positions. She's a puppet tool politician who repeats whatever is popular with the far-right nutjob base. She accidentally let her own opinion come out in 2008, before 'getting hip' to the anti-Gore element and changing her public position. YOU and your Baby Girl army are going to personally hand obama another 4 years, hope you're happy).

;D ;D
Bro - i am on board for supporting Madoff/BTK Killer 2012 if i have to. Who you kidding?
;D ;D

I'd send huck money tomorrow.
Romney, like Palin, flips positions with the wind.

Huck rubs me wrong.

Wait, wasn't Gore and Co. shouting about "Global Warming" melting everything, making our winters like summers, drowning most of the world in rising sea levels, tipping over islands, giving our children bad asthma, killer bee's and pretty much blaming every thing that has changed or gone wrong in the last 15 years on global warming? And the only way to stop it was to launch Cap and Trade programs which haven't worked in other countries and would be based on schemes created and regulated by everyones financial giants?
When did it suddenly become "Climate Change"?. Forever it was "Global Warming: We are all going to die" and, in a snap, it turns into "Climate Change" that mysteriously is made up of all of the things/events/weather that was making a mockery of Global Warming.
Interesting.....interest ing indeed.

How convenient.

They should just come clean and admit they have been talking out of their asses for years on this crappola.
-
Huck rubs me wrong.
he's pro education. he's pro-religion, BUT has the ability to admit he doesn't believe everything in the bible is literal.
To me, that is HUGE.
Any candidate who believes the bible, word-for-word, is dangerous. It's that simple. And any politician who refuses to admit their position on this, is dishonest and a coward.
-
He also pardoned that guy who killed four cops.

yeah, that'll hurt him... but have you heard the explanation? He made a pretty convincing argument about why it wasn't his fault.
Face it, nobody is gonna be perfect in the GOP class:
Romney, a formber lib, cheated in the debates with the earpiece
Palin, amnesty supporter and flipflopper, and the majority of the nation thinks she's stupid.
Newt likes to put his penis in the mouth of people he's not married to.
Huck, has a bald spot and is a little gumpy.
Thune... wait, he is perfect. nevermind ;)

I would send you cash if you announce for prez over bama.
