Can global warming be real if it’s cold in the U.S.? Um… yes!

Interesting. In Bastardi's 500 mb northern hemisphere forecast on the 18th, he predicted much of this cold weather, and the reasons why regarding warm water near Alaska and the resulting ridge that is allowing such cold weather to come over the top, so to speak.

One of the things I like about him is he tries to find historical precedence in wx scenarios. He stated that he found a similar polar outbreak of this magnitude in...1918. The date of your picture reminded me. If anyone's interested, the analysis from 1/18 is still posted at his site:

Bastardi is a hack TV weatherman and is not to be taken seriously other than maybe predicting weather. And I wouldn't trust him to do that either since he' s obviously a fool.


Bastardi is an outspoken skeptic of human-induced global warming.[14][15] His views are sharply at odds with analyses by working scientists in the field.[16][17]
Bastardi has asserted that the world was likely warmer in the 1930s than today, as well as stating that human contribution of carbon dioxide is too small to have any effect, and warming is caused by sun spots and exchange with warmer oceans.[18] He frequently argues in his columns that extreme weather events occur naturally and that there is not enough evidence to state that such events are unusual.[19] Bastardi has stated he believes that over the next 30 years, the global average temperature will return to levels seen in the late-1970s due to a so-called "triple-crown of cooling" comprising oceanic temperature cycles, solar radiation cycles, and volcanism.[14]
Bastardi has also claimed that carbon dioxide cannot cause global warming because this would violate the first law of thermodynamics,[18] a misunderstanding of that gas's role in causing warming,[20] He has further explained:
CO2 cannot cause global warming. I'll tell you why. It doesn't mix well with the atmosphere, for one. For two, its specific gravity is 1 1/2 times that of the rest of the atmosphere. It heats and cools much quicker. Its radiative processes are much different. So it cannot -- it literally cannot cause global warming. --- Joe Bastardi, Fox Business, March 9, 2012.[21]
Physicist Richard A. Muller says Bastardi's explanation of CO2 is "completely wrong" and "even skeptics of global warming, if they know physics, would disagree with him."[16]
 
Sea ice in the Antarctic is only part of the picture. But it's extent is growing due to global warming.

I can hear the howls of ignorant righties from here. But if they had half a brain they would know why.

Why does it look like there is a lot more snow and ice now than 102 years ago?

102 years later? is that the result of that CO2? 102 years of co2. can you imagine what it will look like in 2100?
I am sure glad the agw nutters have been warning us about the cooling effects of greenhouse gases.
