However, according to this new article from www.news.yahoo.com, the desperation of the Global Warming scam artists has no limits! It seems that they are trying to argue that this cooling trend does not disprove their Global Warming beliefs! This article contains such utter nonsense, and definitely is one for the files of Absurdity. Here is the article:
Experts: Cold snap doesn't disprove global warming
Beijing had its coldest morning in almost 40 years and its biggest snowfall since 1951. Britain is suffering through its longest cold snap since 1981. And freezing weather is gripping the Deep South, including Florida's orange groves and beaches.
Whatever happened to global warming?
Such weather doesn't seem to fit with warnings from scientists that the Earth is warming because of greenhouse gases. But experts say the cold snap doesn't disprove global warming at all — it's just a blip in the long-term heating trend.
"It's part of natural variability," said Gerald Meehl, a senior scientist at the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colo. With global warming, he said, "we'll still have record cold temperatures. We'll just have fewer of them."
Deke Arndt of the National Climatic Data Center in Asheville, N.C., noted that 2009 will rank among the 10 warmest years for Earth since 1880.
Scientists say man-made climate change does have the potential to cause more frequent and more severe weather extremes, such as heat waves, storms, floods, droughts and even cold spells. But experts interviewed by The Associated Press did not connect the current frigid blast to climate change.
So what is going on?
"We basically have seen just a big outbreak of Arctic air" over populated areas of the Northern Hemisphere, Arndt said. "The Arctic air has really turned itself loose on us."
In the atmosphere, large rivers of air travel roughly west to east around the globe between the Arctic and the tropics. This air flow acts like a fence to keep Arctic air confined.
But recently, this air flow has become bent into a pronounced zigzag pattern, meandering north and south. If you live in a place where it brings air up from the south, you get warm weather. In fact, record highs were reported this week in Washington state and Alaska.
But in the eastern United States, like some other unlucky parts of the globe, Arctic air is swooping down from the north. And that's how you get a temperature of 3 degrees in Beijing, a reading of minus-42 in mainland Norway, and 18 inches of snow in parts of Britain, where a member of Parliament who said the snow "clearly indicates a cooling trend" was jeered by colleagues.
The zigzag pattern arises naturally from time to time, but it is not clear why it's so strong right now, said Michelle L'Heureux, a meteorologist at the Climate Prediction Center of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. The center says the pattern should begin to weaken in a week or two.
Jeff Masters, director of meteorology for Weather Underground, a forecasting service, said he expects more typical winter weather across North America early next week.
That will be welcome news in the South, where farmers have been trying to salvage millions of dollars' worth of strawberries and other crops.
On Miami Beach, tourists bundled up in woolen winter coats and hooded sweatshirts Wednesday beneath a clear blue sky. Some brazenly let the water wash over their feet and a few even lay out in bikinis and swimming trunks. A brisk wind blew and temperatures hovered in the 50s.
"Last year we were swimming every day," said Olivia Ruedinger of Hamburg, Germany. "I miss that."

NTS Notes: This is so laughable if not for the fact that people still believe in this nonsense. The scam artists and so called "experts" behind the Global Warming farce definitely are working overtime in their vain attempts to try to convince the public of their lies. Lets not get fooled again...
More to come

NTS,
Global warming is the chosen vehicle for the internationalists to impose an international tax which is to be borne by the peoples of the various countries of the world. They are not going to let it go. Hoaxes are openly pushed by the powers and humbly accepted by the masses.

Suuurre.
Is that based on a version of the fabricated "data" the climate-gate "scientists" were cooking up?
We just had one of the earliest and coldest winters in the last several decades in the last few months of 2009.
Wolf, but the Global Warming knuckleheads still use that proven false fact as one of their arguments to continue with the scam.
You have to love the way that Saint Al of Gore has mysteriously disappeared over the last while, though. It appears that their chief proponent of this scam has ducked the MSM to avoid further looking the fool.
