Global Warming Blizzard Nemo Strikes East Coast

The National Weather Service is issuing blizzard warnings as winter storm Nemo barrels toward the Northeast, bringing with it 50 mph winds and an estimated 10-14 inches of snow. Up to three feet of snow is expected in some areas in between costal Maine and northern New Jersey. And those predictions are cancelling flights across the country.

Michael Oppenheimer, a climate change expert at Princeton University, said global warming is increasing extreme winter storms.

Why did the left change the term global warming to climate change? Guess they got tired of holding global warming protests during snowstorms.

Global Warming dicktators predicts that global warming will soon be positioned as a threat to Nemo, the baby clownfish in the 2003 Pixar movie Finding Nemo. Don't tell them

So, where are all the news reports of the poor starving hoards digging in dumpsters for a scrap of food like in Sandy?

My husband has a friend in Bridgewater. As of 8:00 this morning he had two feet of snow, no power, no heat, hurricane level gusts and outside temps in the teens. Fortunately he has a gas stove so that at least he can make his coffee! He’s a pediatrician and on call and has to be judicious about using his cell phone. My husband, a snow lover, is jealous.

Dang, didn’t realize you all got hit that bad. I’m in the northern part of New London county.

Yeah roof rake. Ugh, this is gonna be a long weekend.

When did they start naming snowstorms?

It wasn't the National Weather Service. It was one of the alphabet networks. I think NBC. There is no official designation for naming snowstorms.

“Nemo?” It has a name?

[Mouton]

I think the point should be our soft sophisticated society
cannot cope with things. Every storm is “the worse ever”.

I recall many storms, sometimes back to back. The winters around the JFK inaugeration were quite bad by today’s standards. The blizzard of 78 in No Virginia was bad too, 30 inches or so at Dulles airport. The no name storm of 63 or so. Each was the worse ever. How about the little ice age wherein in snowed in NYC in June or Valley Forge during the revolution? Meanwhile the climate shills continue with their mantra we are going to hell in a hand basket so lets do something. OK, close the oyster farms in the recreation area in NorCal, wow, great start. Let’s get rid of those incandescent bulbs, no bother with the poisonous mercury, we can deal with that. On and on. Maybe if too many navy personnel get on Guam it will capsize (actual rant by some coke headed congressman). Meanwhile the real problems, those islamic terrorists are no real problem, after all, Obama got OBL.

Thanks to Climate Change, we only got a foot here in No. New Jersey.

Eight inches here in Monmouth County. For those of you unfamiliar with NJ that's south central and I'm about 15 miles west of the Atlantic Ocean and Asbury Park.

I just got in from shoveling all of the Gorebull warming. There is over two feet in my little corner of Massachusetts. And as I was shoveling, the wind came up and whipped everything all around again...kind of cool, like a movie with a big roar and all this snow comin’ at ya. Kind of like...winter?

The silly panic that began on Wednesday and culminated with Deval Patrick scratching his fascist itch and banning everyone from the roadways (essentially shutting down every business, reducing income, shortening paychecks and reducing tax revenue - Deval’s favorite) is a recent phenomenon. It shows how sad we’ve become. Most people don’t need to be told by Big Daddy Gubmint not to go sightseeing or traveling long distances in a blizzard. We used to be able to rely on the judgment of each person to use common sense when deciding to travel in bad weather. Another responsibility we’ve forfeited to Big Daddy Gubmint?

People pay big dollars for that climate in Tahoe.

[Gefn]

I’m right on the corner of Mercer, Middlesex and Somerset Counties. I got 11 inches of the white stuff here.

When did they start naming blizzards?

Is this storm the worst that has EVER happened? Is GLO-BULL warming to blame?

IIRC, it was the Weather Channel.

[equaviator]

Hah!...The Weather Channel will then develop a “Spin Zone” segment for reporting on their named tornadic systems...BTW, the spell-checker just kicked in on the word “tornadic”.

The kids put a measuring stick in the flower bed by the front door. This morning it was reading 24". Hubby had gone out last night about 10 to do the first pass with the thrower, even the sidewalks on either side of the driveway, and it was about 9-10" at that point. He didn't want to wait until the end of the storm to do the sidewalks, because it would just be too deep for the thrower.

Son went out earlier this morning, but the thrower got stuck between the car and a snow bank, and he got frustrated and came back in. ;o) Hubby and he and are fixing to go out to get it going and do the final (we hope) clean up.

[Lazamataz]

Yet here in Georgia I walked around today with no jacket.

Remind me again why I lived so long in that liberal hellhole of the Northeast?

Thanks. I knew NBC was involved, forgot about the Weather Channel.

[Delta Dawn]

Checking in from Tallahassee, Fl. It is about 60 at the moment with intense sun showers. Sun showers are expected to intensify and continue until nightfall.

Will attempt to be brave and venture out into this weather. Will report back if I survive...
