Hence the need for the Goreloonies to dump the term “global warming” and start talking “climate change.” They’re making sure they’ve got all the bases covered.
Bush’s fault! /sarc
There is something very funny about this: it turns out that the computer models that Al Gore and his acolytes have turned into oracles even beyond the stupidity of trying to give a discrete model of a continuous chaotic dynamical system had another element of garbage in to contribute to the garbage out: they didn’t include the negative feedback that would occur when the sea ice melt increased humidity in the arctic and subarctic regions, resulting in more snowfall on land and a consequent increase in the albedo of the Northern Hemisphere.
Dolts. GIGO.
I have a colleague who’s been fretting about global warming. I’ve been pointing out the extra-snowfall negative feedback for years, and at lunch the other week, he finally got it—told me what I’d been saying for years as if it was news—because he read it from some professional climate modeler.
I think climate modeling should probably be turned over to mathematicians instead of being left in the hands of folks who don’t seem to understand what Poincare knew at the turn of the 20th century about what’s now called ‘chaotic dyanamics’, or maybe to Shakespeare scholars who at least know ‘there are more things in heaven and earth than are dreamt of in your philosophy’, and wouldn’t presume that their models were complete.
Weather Service: Whitest Easter in Detroit in decades
The Associated Press
(AP) — It's going to be a white Easter across much of Michigan.
Already digging out from a storm that buried the state under up to 10 inches of snow near the Ohio border, forecasters are predicting a chance of snow showers Sunday across most of the Lower Peninsula and the western Upper Peninsula.
The Good Friday storm officially dropped 7.3 inches of snow at Detroit. The National Weather Service says above-freezing temperatures melted some of the white stuff on Saturday, but 6 inches likely will be on the ground Sunday.
Forecasters say records going back to 1900 show the most snow reported on the ground in Detroit on Easter Sunday was 2 1/2 inches on April 4th, 1920.
I'm in mid-state and only have about 4’ left in my back yard.
I'm calling for a class action suit against gorebore for Breach of Contract. I have been counting on some GW! Looks like I'll need the snowshoes for first day of fishing - 1 April
bttt
Just when we thought we might be done with it.... Six new inches fell yesterday and last night.
It was one of the snowiest nasty days in a long time..
That Al Gore might eventually roast in hell for perpetrating this global warming scam is poetic justice.
Totally normal snowfall in Fairbanks. About three feet. Most I have seen here was ten feet and that brought down a lot of flat roof buildings.
A friend of mine in Muskegon, MI called me yesterday. He was at his window watching it snow and still had two feet of snow on his lawn.
It’s the month of March. What happened to Global Warming?
Record snowfall ping.
Milwaukee is up to the 2nd snowiest winter ever, and it ain’t over yet. Took me two hours to blow out my little driveway this morning.
Yep, I’m waiting for my FEMA trailer to show up any minute now.
