    1. Look at the average February temperature and the average August temperature. An increase of about 50 degrees in six months. After several years, we’ll be boiling with temperatures in the 100s of degrees (this isn’t a silly methodology, established scientists took the average temperatures from the coldest time in a millenia and extrapolated, proclaimed a crisis, and asked for more funding).

    2. Sometimes its hot, sometimes its cold. For the most part, most people (and farmers) prefer “hot” to “cold”. Only hard core liberals are horrified at the thought that New Yorkers will no longer have to go Florida to warm up during the winter.

    What an excellent expression of thinking New York is the only place on Earth.

    Fun fact: This was the warmest winter on record in the United States.

    Not that that is an indicator or global warming or climate change or whatever anyway.

    I’m just glad I don’t live in Boston (if, in fact, I don’t live in Boston).

    In the early ’90s the doomsday prophets were still carrying on about Global Cooling. When that didn’t pan out after a couple decades of rants, the hoax became about global warming being “man made”.

    “What an excellent expression of thinking New York is the only place on Earth.”

    Yup. One might have thought that people would be embarrassed about their narrowmindedness.

    My wife and I just visited Northern and Southern California. 85 degrees in the south, no rain, people going to the beach. Kiddushes held outdoors — in February. In the north, the largest cross country ski area in North America was closed for lack of snow. The Lake Tahoe area, where snowpack is generally measured in feet, not inches, had no snow at all.

    2014 was overall the warmest year ever since reliable worldwide measurements became available in 1880. Eastern North America is the only populated area in the world that has escaped that trend. Be grateful that we have escaped that trend — so far.

    (And if you live in South Brooklyn, the Rockaway Peninsula, or South Staten Island, be prepared for more Sandy’s.)

    What does the fact that NYC isn’t the only place have to do with this thread? “Global” includes NYC as well.
