Re: Anthropogenic Global Warming

I look out the window, glad I don't have to go anywhere. "Global warming" has served up a snorter of a blizzard, with heavy snow, high winds and low visibility. My landlord shoveled the drive not an hour ago, and at this moment you can't tell that he did a thing. With these winds, we get ground-effect blizzard into the bargain.
The weather prognosticators say the snow should end in a couple of hours, but that the temperature will plunge tonight. Bring in the brass monkey!
Edit; add-on: The snow stopped, and landlord and I joined forces to clear the drive. Good thing to get that done too, it was heavy and wet, and with tonight's low temps it would have frozen to rock-hard in the morning. Good luck moving it then.
I know my personal observations don't count because I don't have the "right" (or maybe that should be "left") credentials, but I do have 60 years of noticing things around me. That's why I'm a skeptic--- I just don't see the calamities that were forecast to have already happened, but have not. I suspect it won't happen by 2115 either--- but conveniently for the forecasters of CAGW doom, nobody now living will be alive to call them out on it and they won't be alive--- at least in the sense that we understand life on this planet-- to face the music.
Now, wait a bit while I brush the snow off of my flying car. Oh, wait, that's right--- they're still toys in the hands of inventors, not ready for public use and may never be. See what a problem predicting the future can be?
