We are almost done with January 2010 and Lubbock is getting hit with a snow storm! And we just had 60+ degree weather yesterday. By later today, everything will turn into ice! It’s the effect of global freezing! 🙂

Wow, Those are some nice pics.
Give you Nobel Prize back Mr. Gore..
And Obama too.
Weather is a strongly nonlinear dynamical system. It is also local and has a really large number of degrees of freedom.
As the weather is perturbed (mostly by pollution of the environment) we are going to witness wild oscillations. Like going from 60 F to a frozen picture in hours. It will only get worse in years to come.
By the way, talking about global warming is a shortcoming.
Something to remember in July.
beautiful

“By the way, talking about global warming is a shortcoming.”
So is living in denial.
Ask Oprah to save you.
Yeah great for Dallas, yall can beat us in football but Taste Our Snow!!!
Gema is correct, however it should be noted that the dynamism of the atmosphere is dependent on the total amount of thermal energy in it.
2009 was the second warmest year on record after 1998. Just because it’s unseasonably cold in one place, doesn’t mean that the overall amount of heat in the atmosphere hasn’t gone up worldwide. There were extreme droughts in Australia and Northeast Asia in 2009, and the temperature in polar regions has been as much as 5 degrees F above normal for the last decade or so.

I see you have both become southerners! Your lows are our highs. Tomorrow high of 15 here, low of zip.
But at least we had 4 straight days when the temp went over 32, and people remarked that it has been a mild winter, so far…

Two wrongs don’t make a right.
Silly neo-liberal.
There is a difference between weather and climate. There is a difference between what happens at one particular place and what happens globally. There is a difference between the weather at one particular place and time and what is happening with the climate globally over a long period of time. It is a scientific fact that the average global temerature is rising.
Last month we had a record-breaking high temperature here. In Dallas, most years have at least one day of snow. Typical is 2 or 3 days of snow per year. The average snowfall is 2.5 inches. So it isn’t unusual for it to snow in Dallas.
Lubbock gets an average of 3.4 inches of snow per year, so it isn’t unusual for it to show there.

“It is a scientific fact that the average global temperature is rising.”
Not true ditto head, the data was fraudulent.

Educate yourself and discover this whole global warming scam is to reign in the leading industrialized nations under one world government flag.
Professor Phil Jones asked a colleague to delete emails relating to a report by the U.N.’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.
The university at the center of the climate change scandal over stolen e-mails broke the law by refusing to hand over its raw data for public scrutiny.
The University of East Anglia breached Britain’s Freedom of Information Act by refusing to comply with requests for data concerning claims by its scientists that man-made emissions were causing global warming.
The Information Commissioner’s Office decided that UEA failed in its duties under the act but said that it could not prosecute those involved because the complaint was made too late, The Times of London has learned. The ICO is now seeking to change the law to allow prosecutions if a complaint is made more than six months after a breach.
The stolen e-mails, revealed on the eve of the Copenhagen summit, showed how the university’s Climatic Research Unit attempted to thwart requests for scientific data and other information, and suggest that senior figures at the university were involved in decisions to refuse the requests. It is not known who stole the e-mails.
Professor Phil Jones, the unit’s director, stood down while an inquiry took place. The ICO’s decision could make it difficult for him to resume his post.
Details of the breach emerged the day after John Beddington, the Chief Scientific Adviser, warned that there was an urgent need for more honesty about the uncertainty of some predictions. His intervention followed admissions from scientists that the rate of glacial melt in the Himalayas had been grossly exaggerated.
In one e-mail, Professor Jones asked a colleague to delete e-mails relating to the 2007 report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.
Susan, I’d suggest you delete this thread. I understand your wanting to share the pictures, but the “global cooling” comment was guaranteed to start a flame war. I’ve seen it over and over all across the internet.

Oh, so if you don’t like the message then sensor it cowardly anon.
There is a job in the Obama administration waiting for you.
It already has been proven that Global Warming is a lie!
Pull your head out of your ass cowardly anon and look around for yourself for a change. Your freedoms are being stolen and you are unaware of the peril at hand.
Your papers please.
Susan,
You undermine your own credibility when you link aberrant weather patterns to the general trend towards global warming (a possible cause of increasing weather weather extremes, such as the fine spring weather we’re having in the frosty Pacific Northwest while Texas and Virginia gets our snow).
Nope, Cassandra, you’re wrong about my intent, and rude also. I expressed no opinions in either direction on the issue of climate, so go vent on someone else. I was just looking to keep a chess blog about chess. There’s enough political flaming elsewhere on the internet for those who like that sort of thing.
