Houston, we have a problem.

And the problem is unusually cold weather in Houston to the extent that city had its earliest recorded snowfall on Friday. Plus much of the rest of Texas also had quite cold weather which caused the cancellation of a global warming lecture at the University of Texas in Austin.

Here is the e-mail received by the Houston Chronicle SciGuy blogger Eric Berger:

Global Warming lecture postponed due to cooling

Given the travel advisories issued and the likelihood of freezing weather for the Austin area tomorrow evening, we are postponing the December 4 event, Global Warming - Lone Star Impacts.

Because of the Gore Effect, attendees at the Copenhagen Conference are advised to dress very warmly. In fact, they may need Arctic gear.

PING!

The Gore Effect

• GORE HEARING ON WARMING MAY BE PUT ON ICE

  Mon Jan 26 2009 17:59:26 ET

  Al Gore is scheduled before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on Wednesday morning to once again testify on the 'urgent need' to combat global warming.

  But Mother Nature seems ready to freeze the proceedings.

  A 'Winter Storm Watch' has been posted for the nation's capitol and there is a potential for significant snow... sleet... or ice accumulations.

  "I can't imagine the Democrats would want to showcase Mr. Gore and his new findings on global warming as a winter storm rages outside," a Republican lawmaker emailed the DRUDGE REPORT. "And if the ice really piles up, it will not be safe to travel."

  A spokesman for Sen. John Kerry, who chairs the committee, was not immediately available to comment on contingency plans.

  Global warming advocates have suggested this year's wild winter spells are proof of climate change.

• HEARING ON 'WARMING OF THE PLANET' CANCELED AFTER ICE STORM (Drudge Report ) February 13, 2007
• March 1, 2007 --- Minnesota Public Radio's "Global Warming: The Home Front" scheduled for March 1 was cancelled due to insufficient global warming ("based on current travel advisories ").
• March 7, 2007 --- A Congressional subcommittee meeting on Energy and Air Quality Hearing on "Climate Change: Are Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Human Activities Contributing to a Warming of the Planet?" was cancelled due to a snow advisory. "A SNOW ADVISORY MEANS THAT PERIODS OF SNOW WILL CAUSE PRIMARILY TRAVEL DIFFICULTIES. BE PREPARED FOR SNOW COVERED ROADS AND LIMITED VISIBILITIES...AND USE CAUTION WHILE DRIVING."

  Recall that greenhouse hypothesis maintains that warming due to increases in the greenhouse effect is anticipated to be greatest in the winter.

Yeah I had that globull warming white stuff all over my house and yard yesterday, I even got pictures to prove it.

I am so excited that algore is right I hope this happens again soon. sarc//>

[qwertypie]

Who has had a worse week, the alarmists or Tiger Woods?

Honestly, I think Tiger has a chance to recover if he admits things fully. The other guys? Nope. Just the opposite.

We're also getting some global warming now as I type this.

[Nervous Tick]

>> Who has had a worse week, the alarmists or Tiger Woods?

Lyin’ Woods may indeed recover, but I predict things are gonna be rather cooler for the foreseeable future, at the Woods residence as well as on Planet Gaia...

Yep, sux to be a Cheetah, whether it’s on your climate research or on your spouse!

[cripplecreek]

The lake I live on froze over last night.

[Old Retired Army Guy]

They don’t need to dress to warmly. The local prostitutes are offering their goods for free to credentialed attendees.

[fhayek]

It seems to me that your theory that it gets colder whenever Gore attends a Global Warming conference is more accurate than the AGW theory. Perhaps you should apply for a grant.

[Ditter]

I have been to Michigan with Mr. Ditter, deer hunting at Legends Ranch. I saw a bunch of frozen stuff. I can’t imagine living there. What we had yesterday was fun, but all winter, it would get old.

[Islam=Murder]

We can’t let the MSM win this.

I really like Jodie Miller. She is great!

On Subject, this is just an example of how these idiots in the GW/CC Fraud community think the people are brainless.
They are the height of elitist groupthink.
Totally devoid of COMMON sense.

[votemout]

What? You don’t live on Cripple Creek?

[cripplecreek]

I like winter just fine but its a more of a hassle than anything.

[snowsislander]

BTTT.

[cripplecreek]

Cripple Creek is probably froze over anyway.

Actually I live on the shore of a wide spot along the Raisin River (Or more traditionally, River Raisin)

Remember the battle of the River Raisin!!!!

[votemout]

Sorry, I’m from out of town. I grew up near the Big Ugly and the Guyandotte. Please no jokes.

[Orange1998]

I guess they picked Houston so snow would not cancel Dec event. ROFLMAO.
