Ottawa Snow: 14 Feet and Counting!

Ottawa is on the verge of breaking a snowfall record set back in the 1970-71 winter season as it has thus far accumulated 14 feet of snow! There have been four deaths due to roof cave-ins, reports of "snow rage" as neighbors battle for yard space to toss the snow, and one man has even created an 18 foot decorative wall next to his driveway. Go ahead and try to sell these people on "global warming."

Baghdad's First Snow!

I can't believe I missed this one, but my son was writing a paper tonight on the fallacies of the "hockey stick" graph and dug up an article from this past January on Baghdad's first snow fall ever recorded. Other sources say it has probably been about 100 years since Baghdad has seen snow, but no one is really certain. Considering how rare snow is in this part of the world, you would think someone somewhere along the 4,000 years civilization has been present in that part of the world would have made a note of it when it actually happened. In any case, I guess "global warming" doesn't apply to Iraq.

NOAA's Results: Coolest Winter Since 2001

According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), this past winter was the coolest since 2001. While that may have only been seven winters ago, according to the global warming alarmists we are supposed to be far above that level by now. In fact, since recording of national temperatures began in 1895, this was the 54th coolest winter, placing this past winter in the cooler half of cold winters, and some places like Concord, NH, received more than 100 inches of snow, blowing away records that had existed for more than 100 years.

So what happened to the drastically rising temperatures we were supposed to be seeing? That infamous "hockey stick" graph that was developed 20 years ago has come under fire for its inaccuracies and predictions of widespread tropical disease, severe drought, rapid melting of the world's glaciers and ice caps, and rising sea levels that simply haven't happened.

Weather Channel Founder: Sue Al Gore!

John Coleman, founder of the Weather Channel, already stated that global warming is the biggest scam in history. Now he is suggesting Al Gore and everyone involved in selling carbon credits ought to be sued for the millions of dollars they have cost alarmed citizens. In a Fox & Friends interview, Coleman reiterated that the degree the world "warmed" up over the last century was obliterated this winter, record temperatures dropping us back down that degree.

Globe Cooling, Most Snow in 50 Years

Here are a couple articles that highlight our current temperate state. First of all, the four major global temperature tracking outlets (Hadley, NASA's GISS, UAH, RSS) have all released data that show a sharp drop in global temperatures over the past year. This is not a warming planet and is nowhere close to the anomaly of 1998.

Secondly, snow in North America, Siberia, Mongolia, and China is the greatest it has been since 1966. Toronto just blew away a snowfall record that has stood since 1950. Oh, and that melting ice cap -- it's actually 10 - 20 cm thicker than at this time last year!

It's time to rid America of the global warming scam and get to more pressing issues at hand. Global warming can no longer be used as a valid political position because the position simply doesn't exist! Speaking of politics... you might get a kick out of this:

2007 Not the Swelter it Was Predicted

We've been getting inundated with all sorts of global warming rhetoric, about how we're going to be scorched off the face of this rock that's spinning around the sun. So what happened when 2007 was predicted to blow away the heat records set in 1998? It actually got colder.

This Boston Globe article is loaded with links to articles about the cold and wintery incidents it mentions:
