I don't mind winter. Cold is invigorating. Snow is pretty...but...
We had our usual annual accumulation in November and it hasn't stopped! We're going to need boats up here when all this shit melts!http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/03/15/nepumuza.jpg

[Zing!]

A-fucking-men! I expect our house to flood when this shit finally melts. And we're supposed to get another blizzard tonight!

Fuck snow.

[Angel]

A-fucking-men! I expect our house to flood when this shit finally melts. And we're supposed to get another blizzard tonight!

Yeah, we had another blizzard last night and more expected today. Thank God we have 2 sump pumps in the basement. They're going to be working overtime. I can't even park my car in the garage anymore because the back alley is such a mess.

[envy_me]

We had -18 C here this morning.

That's too hot for me. :D

[ELVIS]

It's 60 now at 10pm...

That's better for sleeping. I don't like it more than about 72. I can handle extreme cold much better than heat.

Holy Shit - it's Dan!!

[ELVIS]

I'm the opposite...

[Angel]

-30 and MORE fucking snow! Somebody wake up mother nature and tell her it's spring. :mad:

[Zing!]

There's a rumor going around that we might hit the 30's next week. Not sure if I believe it. I think we've entered another ice age.

I can't think in farenheit anymore, lol. Just checked our extended forecast. No higher than 45 till April 13. February was beautiful. Warm, roads clearing...and we've been slammed ever since. The snow clearing in this city sucks shit. Can't park in my garage anymore cuz the back alley is such a mess, and yesterday I had to fight like a bitch just to get out of the deep ruts to be able to park in front of the house. I won't even start on the increase in gas consumption caused by spinning your wheels at every intersection due to the lack of proper road care! Grrrrr......

[ELVIS]

And without those evil SUVs, none of this would have ever happened...

[twonabomber]

Without those evil SUV's I'd be outside shoveling for an hour. I hit the remote start on the Wrangler and leave ten minutes later. :D

It hasn't been too bad here this winter, we get snow but then it melts in a week or less. Snowing pretty good now, the grass is just getting covered. Supposed to be cold the next week or so.

It's been between 73 and 80 at work, I switched back to shorts early.

[sadaist]

And it will be 80's here in So CA. Dammit. We barely got a winter it feels. It rained some but not enough for my tastes.

First full day of spring....highways closed from the blizzard last night and more blowing snow on the way. Man, I just wish this winter would end already. Over 6 feet of snow announced after last weeks fall, and we're probably closer to 8 now.

Time to start building the ark.....

There's supposed to be global warming. Apparently Canada didn't get the memo.


Scientists who are convinced that global warming is a serious threat to our planet say that such a reduced solar output would simply buy us more time … delaying the warming trend, but not stopping or reversing it.

On the other hand, scientists who are skeptical about global warming say that the threat is a new mini ice age. (Remember that scientists have been convinced in the past that we would have a new ice age, and even considered pouring soot over the arctic in the 1970s to help melt the ice – in order to prevent another ice age. Obama’s top science advisor was one of those warning of a new ice age in the 1970s. And see this.)

NASA reports this week that we may be on the verge of another Maunder Minimum (a period with an unusually low number of sunspots, leading to colder temperatures):



http://www.globalresearch.ca/nasa-we-may-be-on-the-verge-of-a-mini-maunder-event-is-a-planetary-cooling-spell-straight-ahead/5318725

If we are going into a mini-ice age they will devise a global tax scheme for that one as well.

The best explanation I ever heard about global warming was on a local talk radio show. As usual, there were experts on both sides (from the extremes, of course). So about half way in one of the experts was providing statistical data proving - in his opinion - that the earth is actually in a cooling trend. And the other guy says "yes, but that's weather, that's not climate." So the climate heats up and the planet cools...interesting. I could give two shits really, as long as the beer stays cold.

[Angel]

This heavy snowfall is part of "global warming". We stopped using that term a long time ago. Climate change is a much more accurate description. The problem isn't the temperatures...it's all this fucking snow!!!!

Don't confuse snow with cold either. We've been warmer than average 80% of the year. Increased precipitation is a sign of global warming. If you want cold beer, I've got some snow I can sell ya to keep it in!!!

Down here, we had some really hot days for Summer, but also many cold days, the temperature is changing constantly.

Now is getting colder, not normal for these months.

Also there are a lot of tropical rain storms, this happens normally in the north of the country, but not here.

So, in other words, it's common to have blizzard-like conditions with warming ??

[Zing!]

Just hope there's a slow thaw. If we jump right into the 50's with 8 feet of snow on the ground I'll be calling Angel to pick me up in her ark.

[PETE'S BROTHER]

minot should open a rafting company

[Northern Girl]

So, in other words, it's common to have blizzard-like conditions with warming ??

Probably not common. Generally you either get the nasty cold or it's warm enough to produce snow. You usually don't get both at the same time. The blizzard, where you get both plus extreme wind, is rare. It's been a long time since I've seen what I would call a true blizzard! But I'm not in Canada!

Of course, I may be just talking out my ass, but that's the way it seems to me. :biggrin:

[ELVIS]

So, you think Global Warming is causing the conditions in Canada right now ??

[Northern Girl]

I don't really know what to think. I'm pretty close to Canada, and our two previous winters were very mild - above average temps and no snow!

This year - a fairly normal mix of nasty cold and a bit above average snow fall (average being a lot - like 70+ inches).

There just hasn't been enough consistency for me to buy into it, I guess.

Before March, we were below average snowfall and actually considered in drought conditions. So I'm not seeing the increased precip angle myself...

[Nickdfresh]

Don't confuse snow with cold either. We've been warmer than average 80% of the year. Increased precipitation is a sign of global warming. If you want cold beer, I've got some snow I can sell ya to keep it in!!!

Part of the Global Warming/Climate Change trend is the warmer weather actually causes more weather extremes.

That being said, we're having a cold March here with above average snowfall, though not that much really...

[FORD]

So, you think Global Warming is causing the conditions in Canada right now ??

No, of course not. It's all a liberal conspiracy against the oil companies. Just ask Pat......

We'd better find a way to cool it off before the ice age arrives...

[Nickdfresh]

We'd better find a way to cool it off before the ice age arrives...

Well, with the polar ice caps thinning, breaking up, and melting - that's probably unlikely...

[ELVIS]

But according to the global warming crowd, warming equals cooling...

[Angel]

So, in other words, it's common to have blizzard-like conditions with warming ??

Yes. If it's too cold, snkwflakes don't form. They're just tiny sparkles in the air.

[Angel]

But according to the global warming crowd, warming equals cooling...

No. Warming equals extreme weather conditions and more precipitation. We had a warmer than usual winter with record snow falls. By the end of November we already had our usual annual accumulation.

[Angel]

Probably not common. Generally you either get the nasty cold or it's warm enough to produce snow. You usually don't get both at the same time.

True blizzards are common here on the prairies.

[FORD]

But according to the global warming crowd, warming equals cooling...

Have you ever used an old-school, hand cranked Ice cream freezer?

Remember how they work? You fill the thing up with ice and rock salt. And as the ice melts, the contents on the inside get colder.

Well, all that freshwater ice in the polar caps is melting, due to the warmer ocean currents, and it's turning the weather system into a big ice cream freezer, more or less.

[ELVIS]

Did Dr. Creepy tell you that ??

That's comedy right there...

[FORD]

Did Dr. Creepy tell you that ??

That's comedy right there...

No, actually it's science.

I thought you weren't a science-phobe like most of your fellow fundagelicals?

[ELVIS]

I'm not...

You're just full of shit...

[FORD]

I'm not...

You're just full of shit...

How am I "full of shit"

Freshwater ice melts into salt water and it gets colder. Same exact process.

[ELVIS]

You're either trying to fool me or you're stupid...:biggrin:

[FORD]

Weather systems are created off shore over the ocean. It's why you get hurricanes down there in the swamp every year, because you're closer to the equator than you are the North Pole, and your weather comes from the Carribean.

But up north, that "ice cream freezer" created by the melting ice caps plays a much bigger role in things.

Same exact thing happens as far as how the weather is created... just different factors causing the most obvious results, depending on where you are.

But the root cause is the same - warmer ocean temperatures, caused by man made global climate change.

[Angel]

I say it again...our temperatures are warmer. Just more blizzards in winter and more tornadoes in summer...

[ELVIS]

There were consistently recording breaking temperatures recorded throughout the 1930s in Canada and across North America...

I suppose that was early global warming ??

[FORD]

Well, that would be about the time that cars became commonplace in the US and Canada.

Combine that with heavy deforestation probably going on at the time (they probably weren't even re-planting in those days) and yeah, that adds up to what would be unprecedented man made change in that time... beginning around the middle of the previous century with the industrial revolution, the railroads, and various wars, all of which contributed to the pollution levels.

Cooler Pacific and warmer Atlantic changed jetstream patterns according to NASA. We had one storm this year that came from the east, which is really weird. The jetstream did a circle so we got hit by it twice...

The last couple of summers have been quite humid, with tons of storms and tornadoes. Anyone who lives here and doesn't acknowledge climate change is a fool.

He is a horrible patronising shitbag who basically left the uk to avoid being involved in phone hacking and other such disgraceful antics for an editor of a shitty news paper .
Actually thats not why he left the uk , but he is a twat and he was involved in phone hacking.
The problem with him is any serious or valid points he has to make are watered down due to anyone who watches him wants to twat him.

Thanks Vandy. I guess my question is why is the fuck over here preaching at me? I have to say, I don't care what political stripe he is, that fuck is one more annoying pussy. And ugly as well.

[vandeleur]

Not sure he is preaching dude , when I saw him up against that fat crazy bloke alex Jones he looked more like a sacrifical lamb .
He was saying stuff that a lot of your people cant say without getting beaten over the head with a club carved from some amendment or other.
I will probably have to resign from the site for saying this , but ... regardless of what side of the political fence you are or if your pro this or anti that there isnt any harm in dialog or someone presenting an arguement.

I think he is famous for nobody liking him lol .
Actually we sent him there as punishment for trying to steal all our brown ale :biggrin:

Piers is a cunt, but I mostly agree with his points on dialogue regarding firearms' laws here. He's taken both sides and went to a gun range in Texas where he fired an Armalite type assault weapon and had a fairly reasoned discussion with the owners of the gun store/range complex. Then he had noted douchebag Ted Nugent on who simply went ape-shit-retard, like Elvis' hero did, and basically showed that these frothing buffoon extremist gun whores basically don't believe in the First Amendment while failing to understand the Second one. Because they cannot win an actual rational debate...

I kind of like the legend of Atlantis. A society became so technologically advanced they destroyed themselves with it and what few survivors there were became primitive people living in dugouts and huts. It's kind of like when Einstein said World War IV would be fought with sticks and stones. Everyone now is enamored with technology and science but seem to ignore the fact that without morals and ethics those things will actually destroy society.

Ever notice that the brightest and most gifted scientists often work for the war industry? Much of our cutting edge technology is used to make weapons before it even sees the consumer world. The US which was the largest manufacture of consumer goods is now a war economy. Most of what we manufacture and export are weapons systems. We aren't the only one in this game. Even former generals are admitting we invaded countries for no good reason just for the fact we could do it. Our Department of Defense should be called the Department of Offense. This is not a good trend and I don't see a soft landing.
