Friday Funny – The @sallykohn mega-climate madness edition

Sometimes, the best way to point out how climate alarmists have gone over the top, is to just let their own words speak for themselves. Such is the case of Sally Kohn, who bills herself as “America’s second favorite cable news lesbian.” and apparently, also a world renowned expert on weather, er, climate, or something.

 

The responses to this, are not just hilarious, but also quite instructive. Here are a few:

It is a good idea to not get close to them. Bad can happen.
See the Bill Engvall poster just above. Bill nailed this years ago.

She could become the main science reporting expert for CBS, Bloomberg, NYT, LAT, or Forbes with no difficulty.

An intense cold snap is taking over the US East starting today. It is going to last one full week with frosts down to Florida. Get out your winter jackets and snow shovels again.

A big storm is going to drop 15 inches of snow on New York on Tuesday and hit much of the eastern seaboard. That will be an eye-opener.

I think we can check back with Miss Kohn after that.

Did they get caught in the huge power outage yesterday? Ya know, the one national media has barely mentioned? We are in Butler county, less than a mile from the Allegheny River, so the Pittsburgh forecast rarely applies to us.

Rachel Maddow is a lesbian? Oh, dammit, there goes my fondest hope. In my mind, I was going to woo her and win her love and we were going to be one of the lucky breeding pairs to move to Antarctica and keep the human genome alive when the rest of the planet becomes uninhabitable. Our children were all going to look like Ira Flato.

Oh there’s a problem all right, Miss Kohn. Only it’s not the one you think.

I’d tell you to go look in the mirror, but IIRC, vampires can’t see their own reflections.

(They live off the economic blood of others, don’t get much sun, and have a general superiority complex. Yep, their vampires.)

No one finds it the least bit frightening or disturbing that this person is a cable news “journalist”?

So, one day I’m driving along with my daughter listening to the local public radio station. They’re (inevitably) in the middle of their bi-weekly “Gimme Money” campaign. The (also inevitable) schpiel about being fair, honest, trustworthy spews forth and I guffaw. My daughter asks “You really don’t think they’re fair?”
“Of course not.” I answer. “And I can refute that assertion with just two words – Kai Ryssdal.”
I’ve used that on liberals in the past, and it doesn’t really matter which “celebrity” name you use. Substitute Diane Rehm, Carl Kasell, heck – The Car Guys – doesn’t matter.

None have been able to effectively rebut it.

Wonder if Sally would have bemoaned the loss of glaciers 20,000 years ago when Puget Sound was covered by mile-thick ice? http://www.ecy.wa.gov/programs/sea/pugetsound/tour/geology.html

I grew up in South (New) Jersey. I do remember a day in June in the mid-1960s very distinctly. School had just ended for the year. I was out riding my Stingray bicycle on a nice low-60s F day replete with sunshine and a few clouds. Within a few hours the sky had thickened and it began to rain. The rain gave way to sleet and the sleet to snow flurries. In June. In New Jersey. Oh… the madness!

Kocin’s and Ucellini’s book “Northeast Storms” appears to be a little pricey on Amazon, but it is an extensive two-volume book that probably took a lot of work to compile. If I lived in the northeast, I might be tempted to get a copy.

Except on the 1765 storm:

From what I quickly scanned, the 1888 storm sounded pretty bad as well:

I for one cannot image how any climate alarmist can read this book (and look at the February 1954 record highs) and then turn around and claim today’s extreme meteorological events in the NE are in any way, shape or form unusual.

Here in NH, the saying goes, if you don’t like the weather, just wait. Recently, we’ve had temps as high as the low 60’s. Tomorrow it may not make it out of the teens. And there is a possible snowstorm coming Tuesday. Yawn.

I’ve lived in NH, OH, KY, KS, TX, plus.
I’ve never lived or visited anywhere where some variation of “If you don’t like the weather, just wait. It’ll change.” wasn’t common.
I guess Weather Change is a global catastrophic phenomenon.
Or maybe it’s just restricted to the Northern Hemisphere. Or even just North America.
HEY!! If the USA quits the UN, since it seems to be focused there, maybe we can save the rest of world from CNHNAWC!

News flash, San Francisco; 1898 (Chronical special from Fresno, April 16) :

CALIFORNIA DROUGHT; Cattle and Sheep in danger of starvation;
Because of drought more than 100,000 cattle and sheep will die in the County; Senator White has been asked to open the Sierra reservation to grazing (including national parks).

[weather only changes for a little while … then it changes back. Mebbe we can call it climate when it doesn’t change back]
