This is the third time in 37 years that the town of Ain Sefra in Algeria has seen snow cover the red sand dunes of the desert.

Snow started falling in the early hours of Sunday morning and it quickly began settling on the sand.

While the town saw an inch or two, the sand dunes on its outskirts were covered in snow.

That’s just the way it is with “settled science”.

It stopped warming around 2000, hence the rebranding to “climate change”.

"...heard repeatedly that N. America was the only cold place on the planet, well that’s not entirely true, Asia shivered through record cold..."

....but, but, but....the sanctimonious Miami broadcaster scolded DjT's tweet last month and showed worldwide temperatures, proving Donald doesn't know the difference between weather and climate.

He and they are not to be believed.

But it was cold in Florida in the 70’s and we are overdue for an Ice Age. Bring back the Wooly Mammoth so we can have big game in Florida. Giant Sloths for the hunters who are bad shots would be nice. Seriously though, a few good cold years would kill off some of the invasive species.

"It’s amazing how Donald Trump singlehandedly solved the global warming crisis in under a year."

Love it how nature showed its approval of him.

“Anyone remember THE GREENHOUSE EFFECT? it was from the 1960s and died out just after the COMING ICE AGE scare of the 1970s.”

I remember the Greenhouse Effect and the Ice Age idiocy.
Just trying to remember, weren’t the 80’s the decade of Acid Rain?
Or was that hornshoed in with something else?

“a few good cold years would kill off some of the invasive species.”


That and a lot of Dems that have migrated to Florida will seek warmer climates. Maybe Venezuela would foot the bill.

Didn’t you get the memo? Global Warming has been cancelled due to lack interest.
