Yes, we are getting more than a little snow and wind in New Jersey.

Snow days are my favourite. In the morning after it stops, and everything is a pure white, and the sun is out in the blue sky, and it's quiet.

So peaceful! I should do that as a Haiku.

Naturally the blizzard is being blamed on global warming.

..and if it is the result of it?

Because it never snowed before global warming came along?

I just had lunch, therefore there is no world hunger.

You just had lunch, therefore there is no global famine. And places that are affected by famine and hunger are also afflicted by Islam or socialism.

I wrote what I meant to. It's the same logic as 'it's snowing, therefore there is no global warming'. But somehow you managed to also tie it to religion and politics.

It's illogical to attribute an East Coast blizzard to man-made global warming when such blizzards and worse were known to have occurred before anyone even thought of global warming.

Quite true. But Sandorski's point was we also can't dismiss that isn't attributable.

The Lake Effect snow that New York has been getting this year is an example of that.

There is as much evidence of global warming contributing to this blizzard as there is that I used The Force to cause it.

Because we've never seen worse lake effect snow before? Izzat right?
