Beijing had its coldest morning in almost 40 years and its biggest snowfall since 1951. Britain is suffering through its longest cold snap since 1981. And freezing weather is gripping the Deep South, including Florida's orange groves and beaches.
Whatever happened to global warming?
Such weather doesn't seem to fit with warnings from scientists that the Earth is warming because of greenhouse gases. But experts say the cold snap doesn't disprove global warming at all it's just a blip in the long-term heating trend.
"It's part of natural variability," said Gerald Meehl, a senior scientist at the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colo. With global warming, he said, "we'll still have record cold temperatures. We'll just have fewer of them."

Short version:
Only the cold is caused by “natural variability”. Global warming is caused by us.

It will never be "climate change". The DUMBASS repeats GLOBAL WARMING over and over in his AWARD WINNING piece of excrement. Al Gore has set the agenda and he is stuck with it. Changing to allow for normal variations is NOT allowed. It only proves it was a scam agenda to start with.

Sounds more like a Mulla of Global Warming than a scientist to me.

Maybe this B0z0 could outline the details of the AGW hypothesis and his statistical proof?

Just goes to prove:
Expert is a compound word.

You're losing your grasp now and all you have left are the most gullible of the useful idiots.
There's a whole lot of money in this myth for these creeps and that's all they care about.

Experts: Cold snap doesn't disprove global warmingNope, but falsifying data, silencing opposing views, models that don't work, skewing algorithms and a long history of far bigger swings in global temperature all disprove it.

A prediction of half a degree colder in 100 years is critical, a real, measured difference of 15 degrees down is inconsequential...
Glowbull Worming is non-falsifiable, and is therefore not a scientific hypothesis.

Some forecasters say possible chance of snow in Orlando Saturday night. Probably wont stick if it does fall.
To: Plane_Guy
This is the same propaganda crap they gave to phony up their evidence about Global Warming from the very start. They don’t stop. They continue on in this fraud and will do so until Hell freezes over.

.."we'll still have record cold temperatures. We'll just have fewer of them." But we are having more of them. In fact, forecasts look like Florida may make a run at its all time record low of -2 F in the panhandle Saturday and Sunday night. I think we had an all time record low in Maine last winter. Are all time record lows for states part of Global Warming, you idiots ! Sweden is also making a run at its all time record low temp ever recorded right now.

Livestock being frozen to death in their thousandsAs heavy snow brought more chaos to Scotland yesterday, upland sheep farmers in particular feared that their flocks could be killed as a result of the longest cold spell to hit Scotland's agricultural industry for decades.
Gerald is a dumbass.

Of course not. Articles of faith can't be disproved, and global warming has clearly become a religious faith.
