Global warming advocates are just pulling stuff out of their you know whats now...
WASHINGTON (AP) -- With scant snowfall and barren ski slopes in parts of the
Midwest and Northeast the past couple of years, some scientists have
pointed to global warming as the culprit.
Then,
when a whopper of a blizzard smacked the Northeast with more than 2
feet of snow in some places earlier this month, some of the same people
again blamed global warming.
How can that be? It's been a joke among skeptics, pointing to what seems to be a brazen contradiction.
But
the answer lies in atmospheric physics. A warmer atmosphere can hold,
and dump, more moisture, snow experts say. And two soon-to-be-published
studies demonstrate how there can be more giant blizzards yet less snow
overall each year. Projections are that that's likely to continue with
manmade global warming.
