It's something you would expect from a sanity challenged fringe blog or from the usual suspects such as the Democratic Underground or the Daily Kos. Instead the latest example of global warming wackiness is coming from the Gray Lady herself, the New York Times. This is an actual unchallenged quote in a Times article by Jennifer A. Kingson “Alaska is going to be the next Florida by the end of the century.”
Got that? Not in millions of years but by the end of this century. Of course no data is provided to back up this assertion. In fact the rest of the wild predictions in the article also fail to be backed up by any data other than the claim that computer models project these outcomes. One thing to be said about the New York Times in Moonbat Mode is that their desperation to "prove" global warming can be hilariously entertaining as we shall see:

If this were true, rich liberals would be buying up northern property. They aren’t.
Does this mean that Sarah will be able to see Key West from her front porch?
The Old Grey Dinosaur needs to cut back on it’s Kool-Aid.
A warm Alaska sounds like a good thing.
COOL LOL!
I “knew” people that surf off the coast of Nome AK they would welcome it LOL!
She says this like this would be a bad thing.
I think college the truth is that college interns are doing all the writing and fact-checking there. The claim that they made about Obama getting allies for the WOT “unlike George Bush” was just as juvenile.
Yeah. Alaskans can’t wait to become DemocRATS so they can finally get a little “gun control” going and disarm the populace.
Picture the bird sized mosquitos flying among the beach goers in their speedos.
You want the dogs and mushers to suffer heat stroke in the Iditerod?
This of course has led to mass hysteria as the loonies who live here were convinced that it was never going to rain again because of Global Warming er "Climate Change".
Madness has seized them and they are wailing and gnashing their teeth.
But just like the previous 20 million years or so...the rains came again as winter approaches...as it always does
Amazing how that works
“rich liberals would be buying up northern property”
I can never find cheap land in the Florida Keys ... while the libs there think it will be underwater soon, they won’t sell their land to someone offering them something for their soon to be swamp land. Then again, those morons think that passing a law will make this “problem” go away ... they’re obviously clinging onto hope that a new, more genuine messiah is elected next.
Using no model (neither nice nor mean - what a stupid statement (from now ’til the end of this century, because that’s kind of a nice model)), I predict his last sentence will be proven correct. Climate will continue to change, as it has since the beginning of time. Hotter or colder is still the unanswered question though.
so all water around the equator will be boiling ?
I may be wrong here but I do believe the climate has been changing since the beginning of the earth.
Hmm, Anchorage, which is on the coast will be above water longer than Chicago and Detroit?
I wonder if this idiot was making that assumption from a wall map in which Alaska was higher...
At any rate, I hope all the retired Yankees in Florida panic and the price bottoms out on property. I’ll buy and sell it back to rich Dems when the crises is over.
