This was mentioned a while back, and the pro gw crowd said "Its a part of global warming"
I'm not paying carbon taxes. No TV tax either.
The entire earth could be covered in ice and they'd still say "Carbon taxes please"
There is a theory about snow in Siberia during the month of October: If there is a lot, it can mean a particularly wicked winter in the northeast United States.
Last month, Siberia experienced record snowfall and the worst blizzard in a decade.
Above-average snow cover in Siberia is believed to affect the now-famous polar vortex and send bitterly cold temperatures to the Northeast. This happens when the Arctic Oscillation, a climate pattern, shifts.
Above-average Siberian snow cover points to a negative oscillation pattern. But not always. And it is especially not certain that will happen this winter. Myriad factors, not the least of which is the strong El Niño being experienced globally, come into play.
Atmospheric and Environmental Research scientist Judah Cohen, who tracks the Arctic Oscillation and its correlation to U.S winters, wrote on his blog: “It is challenging to anticipate how the final outcome of competing forcings from the tropics and the high latitudes will influence mid-latitude weather.”

Why is it that you think that cold weather and heavy snowfall aren't related to a warming climate? Because they're cold?

They did? Can you point that out?

1) If it's who I think you mean he's also concerned about roving bands of methane blowing things up.
2) Does that mean no NetFlix too?

The third link in that list says "African Holocaust". The link is about a climate summit meeting in 2010. It mentions rising sea levels causing problems with islands in Africa. Are you claiming that global warming does not lead to rising sea levels?
