OT: Global WHAT? Got 5 cm snow now behind the house, -9 C predicted for the weekend, Polar bears welcome!

weekend, Polar bears welcome!

An estimated increase in mean surface temperatures of less than 1 C since the 19th century means that it will never snow anymore, anyplace, ever and it will always be beach weather, all year round, everywhere.

Only 5? You weather sounds absolutely balmy from what we've got here!

he weekend, Polar bears welcome!

Don't worry, "global" warming will probably set in again next week, and you can expected an extended period of moderate warmth to set in around May 2010.

Or you could immigrate to Australia, New Zealand or South Africa, and experience "global" warming immediately.

Hello,

imagine a hungry Polar bear at your door or window, smelling some food and trying to get in the house...

A snowy dusting in Victoria's summer Sam Terry, Friday December 11, 2009 - 18:12 EDT

Most people consider summer a time to wear shorts and thongs wherever one pleases, with little thought of ski jackets or snowboards. However Victoria's Mount Baw Baw saw a light dusting of snow, and it's already two weeks into summer.

A cold front crossed the nation's southeast during Thursday, bringing gusty winds and some good falls to southern Victoria.

CM?! We measure snow in feet around here. There are places in the Sierras that get 60 feet in a good year. They build snow sheds - surface tunnels - so the trains can get through.

Yes, but in mountains it is always cooler at higher altitudes I think? We have no mountains here, just one hill in the south... An -9 C is way below the +1.4 C or so average here for end December... Bottom of page for averages, just above that for prediction of this weekend:

Looks like the warmists got it wrong again ;-) Personally I prefer warm beaches, cool drinks, all that stuff. Works subconsciously too, once I accidently boarded a plane to Hawaii (IIRC I needed Portland Oregon). They got me out on time, but proves they do not read boarding cards...

That's nothing.We've already had a couple of whiteout storms. The piles at the end of my driveway are over 5ft and I already had to clear my roofs.

All I see is my dogs tail as he wades out in the backyard to do his business and he's not a Chihuahua he's a 90 pound retriever about 2ft at the shoulders.

The joys of living in northern Ontario ,Canada. I miss El-Nino for a while there we almost had some green Christmases

Congratulations. You're an idiot. Global warming has never (except by idiots, like yourself) been claimed to mean "everything will just get warmer, and the mid-latitudes will be tropical". From long before the effects started happening, the prediction has been that a GLOBAL AVERAGE temperature increase (which there is) would result in greater extremes (Hotter, colder, wetter, dryer) of weather (which is what you are having.)

It was frigging 60F on Thanksgiving here. For most of my life, there's been snow on Thanksgiving here; Often enough to ski on. The fact that it's 10F with a chill wind today does not mean that there's no global warming, you ignorant idiot.

Let's hope polar bears do move in behind your house. Might up the global IQ just a bit when they get hungry. But that won't prevent local pockets of idiocy from persisting.

One of our experts here, cannot remember his name, but posts a lot on this subject, a real scientist, has claimed sunny beaches will come to his doorstep and the rest of of the Netherlands will flood. This indicates, a peer reviewed continuous fast rising of temperatue.

Actually, the idea to 'TAX THE WEATHER' is original. If anybody would suggest taxing the weather there would be great opposition. But now, after Al Gore has manipulated the brains of so many,. people AKS for that. However Al made the mistake of betting on a temperature rise. That is *not* how you can tax weather. You need to tax on *temperature change*. So this is the 'climate change' we are talking about, and I see that you have already fallen for it, the media have now put the idea in your head of 'greater extremes', and the need to fight that with 'extremer taxes'...

So, who, and why are all the so called scientists always insulting everybody who exposes their scams, the ones you so adhere to, bit fishy really.

Well 4 years is not a very long time, when you grow up you will experience years where is colder or warmer, and you will learn how to drive a car.

Your cat will be eaten by polar bears. Have a nice cold day.

Hey, Cranky Lawrence, You been sipping on the Christmas Cheer a little early this year?

Time to start the winter swimming season.

If you do not have a lake or canal nearby for swimming, you can always roll in the snow naked. Of course, 10 cm of snow on uneven surface is too little, since it will cause bruises.

Watch out for the liver. It contains a lot of vitamin A - enough to kill you if you eat too much of it.

Now imagine you get 120 feet of snow. We haven't seen any serious snow around here for some time. And it seems the snow it going to stay for a while as well.
