Will Romm retract the endless BS he has been spouting?
After a series of record-setting snowstorms hit the mid-Atlantic region this winter, some people asked NOAA if humans could somehow be to blame. Specifically, they wanted to know if human-induced global warming could have caused the snowstorms due to the fact that a warmer atmosphere holds more water vapor.
The CSI Team’s analysis indicates that’s not likely. They found no evidence — no human “fingerprints” — to implicate our involvement in the snowstorms. If global warming was the culprit, the team would have expected to find a gradual increase in heavy snowstorms in the mid-Atlantic region as temperatures rose during the past century. But historical analysis revealed no such increase in snowfall. Nor did the CSI team find any indication of an upward trend in winter precipitation along the eastern seaboard.

NOAA reports
“But the extreme blocked-NAO of this past winter was opposite to the trend toward more positive phases of the NAO since 1950, and also opposite to projections for a positive trend in the NAO during the 21st Century due to greenhouse gas increases.”
Good for NOAA.
lol, no, I don’t think he will. Though, he may ignore the issue for a while. The next dry spell we’ll hear the senseless drone about snow being a thing of the past and droughts being caused by warming. The cyclic nature of climate is mirrored by the cyclic nature of alarmists.
Here was Gore on the 1st February, 2011:
It is more evidence that Brother Al is suffering for a condition known as HNFC! ( Has No Friggin Clue) of course it could be merely a political issue of Posterior rhetoric, Pulling claims out of his Derriere!

“Northern Hemisphere Snow Extent Second Highest on Record”

“December Snow Extent Was 4th Highest On Record”
“December Snow Extent Was 4th Highest On Record | Real Science”
My guess is that Romm will start to discredit NOAA.
..or just ignore reports such as this. Either way, if you mention it on CP, he’ll bin you.
