The New York Times published this crap last week. Since then we have been slammed with one snow storm after another, with lots more in the forecast.

DENVER — After enduring last summer’s destructive drought, farmers, ranchers and officials across the parched Western states had hoped that plentiful winter snows would replenish the ground and refill their rivers, breaking the grip of one of the worst dry spells in American history. No such luck.

Record high snow cover was set in winter 2008/2009

Cook is attempting to confuse his readers with an incredibly facile and incorrect set of arguments. Snow falls in the winter, winter snow cover is increasing, and the last five years have been the snowiest five year period on record.

When the 2013 data gets included, it will get even worse.

For years, alarmists have been telling us that global warming causes an early spring and declining snow cover. But with record snow and cold forecast for tomorrow’s global warming hearing in DC, alarmists will claim that they predicted it all along – because they are extortionists intent on keeping the flow of money coming in.

Joe Bastardi is predicting 6-12 inches of snow in DC for the global warming hearing on Wednesday.

Hansen is well below scenario C, but his predictions are even more useless than they seem. He has been jacking temperatures up by 0.10 to 0.15 degrees every month – by making up fake Arctic temperatures.

But it looks like that game is over too. All of the Arctic warming since the 1970s has collapsed in recent weeks.

Being a government expert means talking very confidently about things you know nothing about.

Skeeter told us that the world was going to end right after sequester, but he has his shotgun pointed at Iran now – and is not bluffing this time.

A few weeks ago, team climate moron told us that the unprecedented drought was going to dry up the Mississippi River. Now the Mississippi Valley has an excess of precipitation.

The 1934 drought was much worse than the unprecedented 2013 drought.
