However, I will bet you a steak dinner accompanied by a nice Merlot that the AGW/climate change power-hungry types will shortly be spinning this.
You see, spring/summer is coming to the southern hemisphere, right? It stands to reason the ice will melt off to normal or near normal levels. Since there is more ice (record levels) it will probably require record level melting to get back down to normal summer ice levels or near the normal summer ice levels.
So the record buildup will be ignored, but shortly we'll be hearing about record amounts of ice melting in the antarctic. You watch.
I can see the headlines now. “As Summer Nears, Massive Ice Melt Forecast For Antarctica Due To AGW.” Yup. Those dang snow machines are wreaking havoc on penguin habitat.
The lefties won’t spin it. They simply won’t believe it. I had this discussion with the office Chicken Little last week.
And quite frankly, the lefties aren’t real up to date on which hemisphere in north/south...nor do they have a complete understanding that the ‘OMG we’re melting’ photos of missing Arctic ice is in the summer...and that it comes back in the winter.
And if you are able to establish with them that it isn’t warming, they whip out ‘climate change’, because ‘storms are getting worse’. And that’s a whole new topic to educate them on.
In short, they really don’t want to know.
