Down here in Tasmania it is really cold. It’s the same across SE Oz. Heaps of snow on the Oz Alps for the traditional opening of the ski season..
But NOAA says that it is the hottest year ever. How can this be?
Because “global mean temperature” and “local temperature” are two different things?
Because NOAA thinks that Chicago represents the entire planet.
Time to trot out the “Global Weirding” nonsense.
Yes, Virginia. There is a global warming, Traditionally it has been called S-U-M-M-E-R !!!!! DUh…
Its winter down there. It always is when it is summer in the north. That’s what you get with a tilted planetary axis.
What a moronic comment. Is “coldest day on record” somehow difficult to understand?
The weather all around the world has gone crazy, call it global warming, call it climate change, call it natural occurances, call it a hoax, but the facts are there.
Weather has always been crazy.

Lol, renbe, there’s nothing unusual going on. As Steve points out, weather has always had a randomness about it. And, it has always been harsh.
Steve links show the decreases in hurricanes and severe tornado counts. He also does an excellent job of showing how the droughts aren’t getting more extreme either. I’ve got an excellent study performed to show there hasn’t been any increase in flooding either….. http://suyts.wordpress.com/2012/05/27/a-nice-little-paper-entirely-debunking-the-increasing-flood-meme/
Renbe, don’t believe the bs. They’ve been lying to you..
The big earthquake in 2010 shifted the Earth off it’s axis 3-10 degrees toward the south. If my theory is right then most northern hemisphere countries should be hotter and most southern hemisphere countries should be colder since 2010. Do the research yourself! Is there anything we can do…NO! Just be prepared!!!!
That is one of the more bizarre comments I have seen today.
If we had global warming then the whole Earth would be warmer, it’s not! Below is data to support the fact the Earth has shifted off its axis as previously mentioned above, please verify for yourself:

Record cold summer in Sydney
By Robert On February 16, 2012
Not just the day, not just the month, but the entire summer.
“Western Sydney is experiencing its coldest summer on record thanks to cloud and rain associated with the La Nina weather cycle,” says this article in the Daily Telegraph.
“Sydney was only able to record an average 24.6C, putting it on track for the coldest summer since 1953.”
As if that’s not bad enough, the forecast for Sydney calls for possible strong winds, hail and flooding this weekend.

Cold snap sets new record low temperatures
Updated January 12, 2012 09:59:06
extreme cold front has broken a series of low temperature records for Canberra, Goulburn and the Snowy Mountains.
The southern tablelands and Victoria’s Alpine region have also been hit by the summer chill.
A rapidly moving cold front from Antarctica moved though Tasmania, Victoria, New South Wales and the ACT yesterday.
The icy and changeable weather delivered a low of -4 degrees Celsius and a dusting of snow to the Snowy Mountains.
