great video of a fox scampering unmolested in the snow.

It's not izzy to be freezy.

I think this makes a nice counterpoint to the softly falling snow.

Those European purchases of Carbon Credits have saved our collective asses! Well done Europe!

Don't buy too too many credits though - we don't want the planet too cold.

Aw gee! I was kinda hoping it would get too warm for women to continue wearing clothes!

Too bad the Goracle wasn't speaking in London today.

Now that the lunatics are truly running the asylum, is it not time to cut the cord with "monarchy" BS and let North America get on with a more realistic vision of how to deal with this potential problem?
While we're at it, dump the GG as well and save more wasted money.

Jim:

Yeah, that's it.

The snow in Ottawa is a sign that we need to abolish our constitutional monarchy and trash the governor general.

You go!

With politicians debating how to save the world from GW while in the middle of unseasonably cold temps and snowfall, I can't help but wonder just how far advanced we are from the days when virgins were thrown into volcanos.

and so much for all the Greenie Fairies in the UK as well . . .

BeJesus,, you mean the Green Shaft is working already ? Good Lord those Liberals are fast.

It has been colder down heya in N. Louisi-Yana than it has been in 14 years this past week. Hunting has been real great, especially around the eletronic motion-sensored timer Deer Feeders, and hopefully the freezer will be full in a couple of more weeks.

I tell you what, buy a smoked whole pork shoulder around 7 - 10 pounds then mix it with your deer meat for sausage, and don't cut the fat away let it mix in too, oh man, that stuff on the grill is worth slapping your Wife's Mama.

OMG!!! It's even worse than we expected. The man-made CO2 in the atmosphere is starting to solidify and fall to earth. We're doomed unless we all buy more carbon credits immediately.

Looney Prince Charles and windbag Al Gore may want to co-operate on a scheme to sell "carbon ration cards" to save the planet!

15cms of snow on the ground in Ottawa as well, in solidarity with our Parliamentary brethren in London.

But when its snow its weather, when its warm its climate.....keep telling yourself that and you might eventually believe it.

But notice that the net result is more jobs in the public service; an increased bureaucracy.

We all know that the gun registry has nothing to do with security and safety of citizens. Notice how, in Toronto, gun crimes are now routine; gun shot wounds and homicides are now routine. These guns are almost all illegal. However, the gun registry has created a massive number of jobs in the public sector - secure jobs, pensioned, many benefits.

Notice also how rebuttals to the religious dictum of 'global warming' are met by statements from Those In The Sect, that any and all weather, from abnormal cold to abnormal rain to abnormal snowfall to abnormal drought, are due to man-made global warming. Once you've moved into a theme of universal causality, you've moved out of science.

But, those public sector jobs - now, they are a great benefit, aren't they?

too freakin bad gore wasn't speaking in brockville ontario or upstate n.y. what a bucch of maroons.

"OMG!!! It's even worse than we expected. The man-made CO2 in the atmosphere is starting to solidify and fall to earth. We're doomed unless we all buy more carbon credits immediately."

LMAO!

At least we'll get that nifty dry ice mist effect wafting off the ground for Halloween. Très spooky.

Laugh now but remember, Al Gore could be in the next Cabinet. Yikes.

Canada could get hammered by protectionist and/or environmental legislation.

...global warming causes snow.

What's the problem here?

Snow started around hear yesterday. Giant wet flakes, like silver dollar pancakes. They made noise when they hit you. Still snowing right now.

My email to the region of Peel asking if there will be a refund of the 'combatting global warming surcharge' on water and wastewater was not immediately answered. One week and counting.

Holy cow, it's snowing somewhere. So much for the thesis that the long-term temperature over the entire globe is rising by a small but ecologically significant amount!

In related news, one kid somewhere got a low grade on one assignment. The thesis of general grade inflation in schools is clearly insane!

Eat less carbon.

Lots of fun! Notice that the more beef you eat, the bluer (and colder) the background becomes.

They've lost the plot over there in Old Blighty!

A few centuries from now, when the historians of the era start picking over the bones of our defunct civilization, they will conclude that the high water mark of western civilization was during the Eisenhower presidency. They will scratch their heads wondering how legislators managed to become so stupid in just 50 years.

Swiss lowlands receive most snow for October since records began in 1931.

The funny thing about this story is, the more you post items about weather when you’re intention is to comment on climate change, the more ridiculous you appear.

It is agreed that climate and weather are two different things. However, lib4life, in the court of public opinion, the AGW zealots frequently cite Extreme Weather Events (tm) in support of AGW theory. It is only fair game for skeptics to respond in kind.
