Global Warming. Really?
It's early in the season, but Anchorage Alaska has already seen record breaking amounts of snowfall. Some areas, surrounding the city, accumulated two feet within two days. A snow emergency has been declared. Is El Niño the cause? Do you think the scientists who support the theory of global warming are staring at their monitors in disbelief? Strange thing, I did not see this reported on the news as often as this summer's record breaking heat. Any thoughts on why?

I consider myself an analytical and open minded person, but I have never seen a convincing argument either for or against global warming, climate change, or whatever you want to call it. The amount of snow in Alaska in one year doesn't even come close to convincing me of anything. And, a lot of people seem to have a personal agenda that makes it even harder to convince me of anything related to climate change.

That's why it has been convenient to rename the agenda as "Climate Change" so that they can be "technically" correct, no matter what the weather outcome. Some are predicting one of our coldest winters this year. Personally, I would be fine with some warming, whether global or otherwise. I moved here for the warm/hot temps.

Summer heat is Global Warming.
Winter snow is Climate Change. I personally think winter weather has something to do with it! :shrug: |
One obvious question is "what does the snowfall amount have to do with global warming?" In the winter in Anchorage, it is almost always cold enough to snow. Snowfall is related to precipitation, not temperature.

El Nino has certainly been a factor influencing weather here in UK this summer.
Cool, lots of rain, and strong winds. Cold and wet again today, and if it carries on like this through winter reckon we may have quite a lot of snow as well. |

Believe what you want. Fact is no one here is going to do anything about it one way or the other, other than lip service, that is. Just keep your El Nino (or El Nina) off my lawn.

Depends on which graph you pull up and how set up scale.
