Over 2000 cold and snow records set in the USA this past week

Compare to 98 high temperature records, and 141 high minimum temperature records

Quite an imbalance in weather records this week. Even the AGU fall meeting in San Francisco where the best and brightest global warming scientists were meeting was surrounded by record (such as 25F in San Jose Dec 9th) and near record setting low temperatures, though the irony was lost on many of them.

See the map:

Low Temp: 606 + Low Max temp 1234 + Snowfall 385 = 2225

In other cold and snowy news, the Egyptian capital of Cairo sees snowfall for the first time in 112 YEARS

Here are some other nearby temperatures for December 9th, the first full day of the AGU Fall Meeting:

The Gore effect.

December 13, 2013 9:06 am

They will say, “It’s only weather”. But then call it climate change when it suits their narrative/meme.

December 13, 2013 9:06 am

You mean this time it’s the MANN effect as MANBEARPIG is hiding this time. ;>)

An Australian ice breaker has just spent three weeks stuck in the antactic, finally broke free.
Guess the Russians are expecting the worst. They are building the most powerful ice breaker ever.

Lol,
Extract,
The Arctic will be granted the highest ice class – 9, meaning the ship will be able to break ice in the Arctic area all year round.

Here in Colorado, the meteorologists are predicting a another wave of extreme cold next weekend, right before Christmas.

This is feeling like a repeat of 2008, So happy I am not in the US or Canada. It is cooler in the Bahamas also but when cool is a low of 72 F, I am okay with it.

Well, thanks, Eve. I guess. We can dream.
Here in my temporary station in Virginia we have had January weather since Thanksgiving. Not good. Reminds me of 1977.

December 13, 2013 9:34 am

Meanwhile, Israel is experiencing snow with heavy accumulation and Cairo has had its first snow in over 100 years.
But the cold is either (a) just weather and not climate or (b) exactly as predicted because AGW causes more extremes.

Funny I was thinking around 1975 that was a bad winter here in Alberta.

This is why they invented “extreme weather.”

What effect do icebreakers have on the long term ice? Has constant breaking impacted the ability to keep older ice?

I’ve had to scrape ice every morning all week. Brrrrrrrr!

A coworker sent me the LA Times coverage of the mideast snow storm. The comments are not kind to AGW, even though the article didn’t mention it.

Thank God that Anthropogenic Global Warming (AGW) has brought us such a rare event as massive cold and snows everywhere. Perhaps if we pump 1000 more ppm of CO2 in the atmosphere, I we’ll see some snow here in San Diego.

Google snow-ified your post’s graphic image when I posted it on G+ Anthony. It’s kinda fun. Feel free to use if you wish, or not. Seasons Greetings! Keep up the awesome work.

It’s snowed in Cairo for the first time in 112 years

This is just weather you know. If the map showed mostly record highs, it would be called climate change, aka, global warming.
As for the unprecedented cold record temperature in the Antarctic – that was just a regional anomaly; and as for the unprecedented Antarctic record sea ice extent, that was caused by global warming you know – the winds done did it.
Everything is global warming, other than the weather and regional anomalies. (/sarc)

Quote from letter to editor in this morning’s Gazette-Times, Corvallis, OR :”Because of global warming, this snow storm will be coming more often than every 20 years.” Shows that folks can be persuaded that global warming causes colder weather!

December 13, 2013 10:01 am

Exactly what solar and ocean cycles would predict.

1975 was bad. I happened to be in St. Louis during those years. 1977 sticks in my mind as the total nightmare.

December 13, 2013 10:04 am

Its time for Joe Romm and Trenberth to break out their absurd claim that global warming causes more snow.
