lol politicizing a snowstorm

Everyone who actually listened would know that the snowfall could have been anywhere from 3 inches to 30 inches. depending on where the bands went.

Who would politicize a snowstorm?

The Climate Science Behind New England's Historic Blizzard (http://thinkprogress.org/climate/2015/01/26/3615330/blizzards-climate-scientists/)




The number 1 cause of this is that it is winter. In winter it is cold over the continent. But it is warm over the oceans and the contrast between the cold continent and the warm Gulf Stream and surrounding waters is increasing. At present sea surface temperatures are more the 2F above normal over huge expanses (1000 miles) off the east coast and water vapor in the atmosphere is about 10% higher as a result. About half of this can be attributed to climate change.





Blizzard of Nor'Easters No Surprise, Thanks to Climate Change (http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2015/01/150126-blizzard-weather-climate-northeast-science/)





"Big snowfall, big rainstorms, we've been saying this for years," says climate scientist Don Wuebbles of the University of Illinois in Urbana. "More very large events becoming more common is what you would expect with climate change, particularly in the Northeast."

How so? Be specific.You used the lack of snowfall in one area as a chance to mock climate change. Your views on climate change are based solely on politics.

Well, since Chump insists on politicizing this, it does beg the question...

If we can't trust a weather service prediction model for a 24 hour period, why should we trust a model predicting out for a hundred years?

Because weather is not climate -- except when it is.

Well, since Chump insists on politicizing this, it does beg the question...

Nothing political about it.

He was actually tweeting a Nate Silver article: http://fivethirtyeight.com/features/big-blizzards-have-become-more-common-in-new-york/

Any objections to Silver's analysis?

Amazing how scientific consensus can be "politicized" but I guess that's what happens when you have very rich people spending a lot of money to create doubt about efforts that might make it more difficult for them to hoard wealth. Keep fighting the good fight, D.

Gore is a mouthpiece. You can accuse him of dramatizing global warming science, but he's not directly contradicting scientific consensus the way your Koch-funded mouthpieces are.

It is much easier to make long term predictions because none of us will be alive to know if they are accurate.

Yes, Al Gore and his $200MM net worth completely invented Climate Change science (just like the Internet) and somehow got almost unanimous support from the scientific community. And he continues to fund his lies by dealing in the $500 million per year carbon credit market! $500 million! For an entire industry! That's almost as much as Baskin Robbins made last year! And that's a whole ICE CREAM CHAIN!

Who could possibly out-shout someone with that kind of scratch?

We are all puppets in Puppetmaster Gore's America.
