21 inches here.
120,000 without electric.
Water company just left a recorded message asking customers to conserve water.

I realize that the Earth’s weather patterns have been changing since the dawn of time, but the first thing I thought while firing up my industrial strength, gas-guzzling snow-blower was, “Stupid global warming. Just one more problem poor O inherited from W. But, like he's said, you can’t fix all the problems in one year’s time.”

I mean give him a chance, 3 – be reasonable.
Which do you want first: do you want him to pay your mortgage or fix global warming?
Fukk’s sake are you edgy.

[240 is Back]

hahahaha my 7 year old neice told me obama was fixing her roads. 

[Montague]

That’s utterly adorable.

Did you sternly correct her with truth & reality?

 

[Montague]

Actually, your post made me think of a joke that someone emailed me:

I recently asked my friend's little girl what she wanted to be when she grows up. She said she wanted to be President of the United States some day.
Both of her parents, liberal Democrats, were standing there, so I asked her, "If you were President, what would be the first thing you would do?"
She replied, "I'd give food and houses to all the homeless people." Her parents beamed.
"Wow....what a worthy goal," I told her. "But you don't have to wait until you're President to do that. You can come over to my house and mow the lawn, pull weeds, and sweep my yard, and I'll pay you $50. Then I'll take you over to the grocery store where the homeless guy hangs out, and you can give him the $50 to use toward food and a new house."
She thought that over for a few seconds, then she looked me straight in the eye and asked, "Why doesn't the homeless guy come over and do the work, and you can just pay him the $50?"
I said, "Welcome to the Republican Party."
Her parents still aren't speaking to me.

Weather and Climate are two totally different things.  This just proves you have zero understanding of the issue at all.

Perhaps this information is outdated since the article was published long before global warming was “invented,” but parts of it are interesting nonetheless.


This is the cover of the Nov. 13, 1972 TIME magazine speculating the coming of the 2nd Ice Age:




The arrival of another ice age has long been a chilling theme of science fiction. If the earth's recent history is any clue, says Marine Geologist Cesare Emiliani of the University of Miami, a new ice age could become a reality.

Writing in Science, Emiliani reports that the earth has undergone at least eight periods of extreme cold and seven of torrid heat in the past 400,000 years.

His conclusion is based on cores of ocean sediment from the Caribbean. Composed of the remains of tiny sea animals, the layered sediment provides a record of climatic changes. When the oceans warm up, there is a decrease in the ratio of the isotope oxygen-18 to ordinary oxygen in the shells of the little creatures; when temperatures go down, the concentration of oxygen-18 goes up.
Moreover, the proportions are preserved after the creatures die and sink to become layers of sediment. Thus, because these layers can now easily be dated, the shells can be studied to establish past temperature trends.

Scientists once held that there were four ice ages, each as long as 100,000 years, separated by warm periods of at least comparable duration.
But Emiliani's investigations, and also those of Columbia University's David Ericson and Goesta Wollin, have shown that the ice ages were as short as 10,000 to 20,000 years. Moreover, Emiliani says, the climatologically comfortable intervals between them were also geologically brief. Thus, Emiliani warns, the present period of "amiable climate," which has already lasted 12,000 years, may soon come to an end, perhaps within the next 2,000 or 3,000 years.

In what direction will the earth's climate then turn? Emiliani refuses to speculate. But if man continues his "interference with climate through deforestation, urban development and pollution," says Emiliani in typical scientific jargon, "we may soon be confronted with either a runaway glaciation or a runaway deglaciation, both of which would generate unacceptable environmental stresses."

[Montague]

I’m not a scientist, but Emiliani started by explaining the earth has undergone at least 8 periods of extreme temperatures – both hot and cold.

Then he informs us that the “present period of amiable climate, which has already lasted 12,000 years, may soon come to an end, perhaps within the next 2,000 or 3,000 years.”

Okay.

He finishes by saying that, “if man continues his interference with climate through deforestation, urban development and pollution, we may soon be confronted with…unacceptable environmental stresses."

So, the extreme, earth-altering weather cycles from the last 400,000 years happened naturally. Now he’s warning us that they’re due to change again.
He’s not sure how they will change, but he warns that urban development and pollution could cause something that is due to happen naturally soon, anyway.

Perhaps you don`t really understand what you are posting.
Emiliani certainly recognized that Carbon Dioxide is a major cause of Global Warming.  Here is what he said:

In 1966 Cesare Emiliani predicted that "a new glaciation will begin within a few thousand years."  "The greenhouse effect is being enhanced now by the greatly increased level of carbon dioxide... [this] is being countered by low-level clouds generated by contrails, dust, and other contaminants... At the moment we cannot predict what the overall climatic results will be of our using the atmosphere as a garbage dump."

West Antarctic ice sheet and CO2 greenhouse effect: a threat of disaster

J. H. Mercer

Institute of Polar Studies, The Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio 43210

If the global consumption of fossil fuels continues to grow at its present rate, atmospheric CO2 content will double in about 50 years. Climatic models suggest that the resultant greenhouse-warming effect will be greatly magnified in high latitudes. The computed temperature rise at lat 80° S could start rapid deglaciation of West Antarctica, leading to a 5 m rise in sea level.

If something called global warming does exist, then it would alter the climate, or – to be precise – the meteorological conditions, including temperature, precipitation, and wind, that characteristically prevail in a particular region.

We got 21 inches here – the fourth largest snowfall in recorded history.
That’s not typical; it’s an anomaly, and a very rare one at that.

When we start averaging 21 inches on the ground every winter (or at least more than 4 times per century), then I may concede to a climate change.

haha yes the it's snowing it can't be global warming defense.  how's that ignorance of science and fact working out for you? hahaha the stupidity of some is really almost unbelievable.

Typical lib nonsense yet again. They start out calling it Global Warming, then when it isn't getting any warmer, they rename it to the all encompassing "climate change". Then they try to play the "science card", then all of the sudden all this info comes out that the so called science is a bunch of manipulated/manufactured horse shit. Then if that fails call everyone who doesn't agree stupid, because of course you know the truth

"This science is a travesty. It's a travesty of a mockery of a sham of a mockery of a travesty of two mockeries of a sham."

Africa-Gate? U.N. Fears of Food Shortages Questioned

The U.N.'s controversial climate report is coming under fire -- again -- this time by one of its own scientists, who admits he can't find any evidence to support a warning about a climate-caused North African food shortage.

The statement comes from a key 2007 report to the U.N., and asserts that by 2020 yields from rain-fed agriculture could be reduced by up to 50% in some African countries thanks to climate change.

But this weekend, a key author of the team behind that report told The Sunday Times that he could find no evidence to support his own group's claim. The revelation follows the retraction by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) of a claim that the Himalayan glaciers might all melt by 2035, dubbed 'Glaciergate' by commentators.

The newest controversial claim could become a very important error in the IPCC's reporting, because it comes not only from the IPCC's report on climate change impacts -- called Assessment Report 4, or AR4 -- but is also repeated in its "Synthesis Report." That report is the IPCC's most politically sensitive publication, distilling its most important science into a form accessible to politicians and policy makers.

Its lead authors include IPCC chairman Rajendra Pachauri himself, who has quoted it in speeches, as has U.N. secretary-general Ban Ki-moon.

Speaking at the 2008 global climate talks in Poznan, Poland, Pachauri said: "In some countries of Africa, yields from rain-fed agriculture could be reduced by 50% by 2020." In a speech last July, Ban said: "Yields from rain-fed agriculture could fall by half in some African countries over the next 10 years."

Speaking this weekend, Professor Chris Field, the new lead author of the IPCC's climate impacts team, said: "I was not an author on the 'Synthesis Report,' but on reading it I cannot find support for the statement about African crop yield declines."

This sort of claim should be based on hard evidence, said  Robert Watson, chief scientist at Defra, the U.K.'s department for environment food and rural affairs, who chaired the IPCC from 1997 to 2002.

"Any such projection should be based on peer-reviewed literature from computer modelling of how agricultural yields would respond to climate change. I can see no such data supporting the IPCC report," he said.
