WHY IS IT SO WARM? I always thought that global warming was bs but now i am starting to get a bit concerned, Its January here in NY and its almost 70 degrees......Can someone give me some scientific insight into Mother natures actions the past three months? I remember deer hunting with my dad when i was a kid and It was always cold starting mid november.......

This time of the year,here in Central Texas,I keep three changes of clothes in the truck.

That's how many times the weather can change in a day.

Ya'll got it EASY! The Weather in Michigan can change that many time is 15 minutes.

ZULU? I 'spect the snow in Denver is cause by the Hurricane machine's reverse direction - wind is now blowing east to west and the Rockies are in the way of the hot air blowing out of DC
If it twernt for the Mtns, there would be 12 feet of snow in LA

It was 70 degrees in NY in 1932.

Its the way the earth and climate works. It goes in cycles and those cycles are not on a timer. Its been going on for a lot longer that we've been around and there ain't a dang thing we can do about it.

If man could change the weather or climate, he would prevent damaging hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, and such.

Why is Greenland called Greenland?

Because when it was settled many years ago, about >1000, it was GREEN.

No snow/ice. Why?

It's not gonna happen in our lifetime.

You should move out here. Over 8 inches of snow on the ground.

So are you disagreeing with the concept of global warming or just the concept that it is manmade? Because I dare you to find a climatologist who will claim that the earth's average surface temperature hasn't steadily gone up over the past 140 years (since man first began to accurately measure temperature), the debate is over whether or not the phenomenon is natural, manmade, or a combination of the two. But the fact remains that global warming does exist, you can argue its causes all you want, but it does exist.
