Afghan poppies destroyed, African holocaust, aged deaths, poppies more potent, Africa devastated, Africa in conflict, African aid threatened, aggressive weeds, Air France crash, air pockets, air pressure changes, airport farewells virtual, airport malaria, Agulhas current, Alaskan towns slowly destroyed, Al Qaeda and Taliban Being Helped, allergy increase, allergy season longer, alligators in the Thames, Alps melting, Amazon a desert, American dream end, amphibians breeding earlier (or not), anaphylactic reactions to bee stings, ancient forests dramatically changed, animals head for the hills, animals shrink

    As global warming increases, geographical locations which currently experience an average 50 days of below freezing temperatures (e.g. a common winter) will eventually see the reduction to the point where the common winter will be reduced to one single day of freezing temperatures. Of course, given that global warming is also causing an increase in snowfall, the normal winter of 6 feet of snowfall will be increased to 12 feet of snowfall which of course must fall on that single freezing day.

    So my addition to the list is global warming will cause the "one day winter".

    No.

    If you depend on headlines in blogs and news media for information about science, you are doomed to confusion, contradiction, and frustration. Scientists don't rely upon media reporting about science, and neither do educated members of the public. Read the science journals. Your milage may vary.
