    If it's snow it's only weather but if it's summer then it's obviously global warming.

    Unlike you, antarcticice doesn't take for granted whatever someone has to say on some website on the internet, no matter how appealing it may sound. Much less so when that person has no background, no training and no education whatsoever in climatology.

    Robert W. Felix is a 'former architect' who has written 3 books, not peer-reviewed papers, no just books whose sale he pushes via the website you link to. Felix is a crank just like our own Billy here. Instead of blaming the Rothschilds, Felix blames everything on 'magnetic reversals'.

    With the source being iceagenow, it would seem to be the 'same old denial' rather than the "new global warming".

    You do understand that large snow fall is linked to both cold air and warm air mixing, a point deniers seem to not understand (or are they simply ignoring this point) truly cold regions have very little snow fall the Antarctic is considered a desert due to it's very low precipitation.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snow#Cause

    It has now become quite obvious that deniers want to make numerous references to a weather system seen to affect parts of Canada and the Central and Eastern U.S. over this Northern Hemisphere Winter., the rather funny irony is deniers also try to claim it is alarmists who try to us local weather when it is in fact deniers who do this as this very question shows.

    Deniers played this game right through the Northern Winter constantly referencing "all this snow" yet not mentioning the rest of the world for pretty obvious reasons, the rest of the world was quite warm, giving deniers little to really work with.

    Nov-Jan, the Northern Winter saw these as global temperatures

    Nov - was +0.78c above the 20th century average, the warmest Nov in the record

    http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/sotc/global/2013/11#temp

    Dec - was +0.64c above the 20th century average, the 3rd warmest Dec in the modern record

    http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/sotc/global/2013/12#temp

    Jan - was +0.65°C above the 20th century average, 4th warmest January

    Globally a three month period of very warm global temps, is it any wonder deniers only want to talk about the relative small region this question relates to.

    Alaska for instance is another small region they have had little to say about, probably because it also had a quite warm winter. http://nsidc.org/arcticseaicenews/

    Denial seems to be trying to play it's usual sad games, lets see if any denier is brave enough to try and answer the above points, with real comment rather than the usual rants about Gore or communists.

    Is this really the best denial can manage, that's sad.

    I thought Al Gore said that we'd wouldn't even know what snow was by now.

    Gringo, "Unlike you, antarcticice doesn't take for granted whatever someone has to say on some website on the internet, no matter how appealing it may sound." Obviously you are wrong again. You idiots take Al Gore's word for granted, even after it has been proven false.

    When the blind lead the blind, both shall fall in the pit.

    Quote by Steven Guilbeault, Canadian environemental journalist and Greenpeace member: "Global warming can mean colder, it can mean drier, it can mean wetter." So I guess those people with all that snow caused by Global Warming are just going to have to sweat it out.

    IT IS WINTER AND IT GETS COLD AND SNOWS Newfoundland is only 928 km from the Arctic circle so it is very cold there in winter

    Nope, just the usual and too predictable Denier stupidity. Being respectful of your Medieval intellectual heritage does not mean that you have to live it.

    @C... It's actually spring now.

    I know. It's only weather until an alarmist tells you it's climate.
