Wooly Bully

Gore-BULL Warming?

Tusk, Tusk.

Forget global warming: Welcome to the new Ice Age

Snow cover over North America and much of Siberia, Mongolia and China is greater than at any time since 1966.

Per the National Weather Service (NWS) we received at least 3 inches of snow yesterday.

It's a wet, heavy, slush type of snow.

The kind that's ripe for giving a heart attack or at the least pulling a muscle

NWS records indicate for the month we've received 21 1/2" and since December 1 we top out at 51.4" .

That's Mammoth and the scientific community is united in that fact!

Wait, it gets better...

The U.S. National Climatic Data Center (NCDC) reported that many American cities and towns suffered record cold temperatures in January and early February. According to the NCDC, the average temperature in January "was -0.3 F cooler than the 1901-2000 (20th century) average."

And...

And remember the Arctic Sea ice? The ice we were told so hysterically last fall had melted to its "lowest levels on record? Never mind that those records only date back as far as 1972 and that there is anthropological and geological evidence of much greater melts in the past.

The ice is back.

Gilles Langis, a senior forecaster with the Canadian Ice Service in Ottawa, says the Arctic winter has been so severe the ice has not only recovered, it is actually 10 to 20 cm thicker in many places than at this time last year.

Finally...

Oleg Sorokhtin, a fellow of the Russian Academy of Natural Sciences, shrugged off man made climate change as "a drop in the bucket." Showing that solar activity has entered an inactive phase, Prof. Sorokhtin advised people to "stock up on fur coats."
