I am hoping that most of Kansas, the place that produces the best milling wheat in the world had enough snow on the 2011 wheat crop to keep the wheat from freezing with temps around -15 the other night. There could be no (zero) wheat from our state this year with all this cold that the GWs say is caused by warming.

Wow, didn't know temperatures operated as a monotonic function based on longitude. Thanks for the tip! Must be another "theory" among the warmul coolers.

On February 2, 2011 Al Gore crawled out of his hole in the ground and saw his fat, bloated, corpulent shadow. Global warming is over, folks. YIPEEEEE !!!!!!!!!!!

Global warming refers to a long trend in average world temperatures not to local variations in weather.

Oh, those crazy scientists who predicted decades ago that a warmer global temperature would mean more eratic weather patterns, not consistently warmer temperatures across the entire globe.

I know it's trendy in cold weather for uninformed people with strong political agendas to bash climate science, but the fact is that these weather patterns are a result of El Nina and other shifts. Whether those are caused by warmer temps is up for debate. I don't know that answer and I haven't heard any scientists make a statement about it. But it's certainly not a definitive no.

btw - if you mention Al Gore in your commentary on this science, it simply reveals to those educated on the subject that you have no idea what you're talking about and probably hadn't heard of this concept until that politician created a presentation. So, you might want to up your game.
