#1 It wont phase the climate nuts on bit, I guarantee.
If they were only stupid you could teach them, but they want to believe that we are all doomed and it is a mechanism of our own creation, the payment for living to happy and comfortable of lives. Shame on us, may we all ~~burn~~ freeze in hell.

#2 I looked up the National Climate Center forecast

http://www.cdc.noaa.gov/ENSO/enso.forecast.html

apparently, both usuable models predict the La Nina event will persist through the summer.

Although this will likely marginally reduce emissions from self righteous ecofreaks, it probably also means more nasty weather than otherwise.

#3 nhw - That's why the mantra is being changed from "Global Warming" to "Climate Change". That way anytime someone thinks the weather is unusual it must be caused by man.

Hell, the other night we had a unusual thunderstorm in the SF Bay Area. It must be due to Global War...excuse me Climate change.

#4 Todays local forcast from yesterday:
High 40, 20% chance sleet/snow

What it is:
Sunny, 45 and warming, no wind.

Out on the prarie - ocean fossils and no woolly mammoths. Havn't seen a Dimetrodon in a while either.

#5 GBUSMC -- it wasn't a thunderstorm in the Bay Area if i didn't hear or see it.

Thor's been promising me a thunderstorm for the last 3 winters and he has still to deliver.

But if all them hammers are being diverted to the MidEast for more Shock & Awe (tm), i suppose i can't complain...
