Blizzards, like the one that battered the East Coast this weekend, have doubled in number over the past 20 years.
From 1960-94, the US had an average of nine blizzards per year. Since 1995, that annual average has risen to 19.
And it's not just their frequency that's increasing. More blizzards are forming outside the normal storm season of October to March, scientists have found.

7 years of Caliph Baraq and no change in the ongoing disaster?

From 1960-94, the US had an average of nine blizzards per year. Since 1995, that annual average has risen to 19. Awfully small sample size. Or are they cherry picking time frames for comparison?

If the number was cut in half of the previous number that would be evidence of Globalwarming too. Must be nice to have a job where every answer you give is correct.
To: MinorityRepublican
Wow! Global warming must also be causing the polar vortexes plaguing the Midwest United States bringing record low temperatures and the ice problems in the Great Lakes. Wonder what caused the ice ages? Ancient Aztec industrial factories?

No, the number of blizzards haven't doubled in number over the past 20 years.

That’s the beauty of global warming. They blame warm and cold weather on it.
Gosh, wouldn’t you love to be able to argue like that with your spouse.
Why you’d never lose.
But boy, if they could argue like that? Pure hell...
LOL

Anyone with a brain knows that warming creates blizzards.
To: MinorityRepublican
Makes sense to me. The hotter the earth gets, the more snow storms we have. Pass the kool aid, please.
To: MinorityRepublican
When I was a kid, scientists were made up of mostly smart people. In Obama and his DemocRATS’ fundamentally deformed America, “scientists” are just brainless, political activists looking for a free ride from the taxpayers via government grants.

Global warming is a non falsifiable theory
That is what makes it great “science”

And if the blizzards would have have dropped by half, they blame global warming and higher temps for that as well.
No matter what happens they just blame global warming. Great drinking game, though.

Global Warming is UNFALSIFIABLE, because all evidence is deemed supportive by fiat and is incapable of refuting the theory BY DEFINITION.
Trivia question: what do you have when your theory is UNFALSIFABLE?
