    Is there nothing that global warming can’t do………

    on another note, Obama lied again, the death panels never really went away.

  3. Their 24hr of darkness isn’t as dark as it used to be, I could say it’s because there is a lot more snow & Ice than usual, making it appear brighter. Do they really have to attribute global warming to every natural event to make their case?.

    “It’s usually around -31 degrees, a couple of days ago it was -5 or something like that”

    Pointing out cold Local summer temperatures AGAIN and attributing it to “AGW”.
    Let me know when the Ice caps melt so we can all enjoy -5 to -31 degrees in the summer.

    All these hypotheses are getting far to easy to criticize even on the fly.

    Ok that is b.s., on Dec 21 (or thereabouts) 1979, Eureka, Nunavut(back then it was NWT), mid day, I jumped in the half trak, went out onto the fjord, shut it off, let my eye’s adjust to the darkness, and yes, it was a clear day(dark…), and i could decern some light to the south….yes, it surprise me too, but hey, that is on the 80th parellel and Resolute is a lot further south…and that was when it was called global cooling still….

    where do these people come from…

    oh, i guess he may have a point, it was -38 that day.

    to claim warmer weather lets you see further, give your head a shake…

  5. Was this darkness thing peer-reviewed? Come on now global warming believers, why haven’t you already asked the same question about this.

    This is true. I live few hundred kilometers north from Arctic Circle (69°) and I have noticed the same thing. On a warmer winter (like this one) a polar night is not that dark as in a cold one. On a very cold day air is foggy. On -20 C it is much more clear.

    • Brian G Valentine says:

      I’m trying to think about why. The cold would be associated with high atmospheric pressure, and less sublimation of ice to water vapor. Lower atmospheric pressure would be associated with more water vapor in the air from sublimed ice (as well as higher temperatures), hence more ice crystals in the atmosphere, hence more light that is scattered in the atmosphere when the sun is near the horizon, making the sky appear somewhat brighter

  7. Mike Davis says:

    It all depends on the amount and location of the cloud cover.

  8. grayman says:

    What about the earth tilting differently in its orbit around the sun being the cause. I seem to remember reading somewhere this past year can not remember that some of the Inuit telling some warmist about seeing that in their sextant readings that the suns position was changed and the warmist told them they were wrong that it was because of AGW.

  9. Andy Weiss says:

    It has been unusually warm in Resolute. So what! Warm in Resolute correlates with cold in most of the rest of the Northern Hemisphere where people live. When it’s warm somewhere it’s usually cold somewhere else.

    Good news, Global Warming causes Better eyesight.

    All this is going to make for some great reading some day …
