MYERS: Because there's no sea ice up in the Arctic, the Arctic is warmer than it should be. In fact, Quebec is colder than the Arctic. When this happens, when this kind of surface happens, there's not cold air just pounded over here, right over Santa Claus, the jet stream is allowed to expand farther to the south. And because the jet stream is expanding farther to the south, the cold air that should be bottled up here, making more sea ice and it's not, now expands into China, expands into Russia, and all the way down to the U.S. And that's exactly the position we're in right now.
Line 1 is a lie....the current ice extent of the Arctic is normal.
I'd love to know how temperatures at the North Pole are NEGATIVE 18.5 degrees C and "not creating sea ice"....earth to idiots...water freezes at 0....average sea water freezes at negative 2 degrees C. SOMEhow, negative 18.5 degrees isn't freezing the water up there, according to this hack.
Look, people, it's called a "continental arctic air mass" and/or a "continental polar air mass".....once in a while, it shoves a cold front deep into the United States in the winter time.....and it has NOTHING to do with any freakin' golbal warming.

How cold is it?
-It is so cold I had to chisel the dog off the fire hydrant. Heck, It is so cold the members of Congress have their hands in their 'own' pockets. Ed Markey is now the official 'cheapest' man on earth. 1.5 percent to charity while the average American gave 3 times as much...
It seems that Derek Jeter is in Davos, Switzerland this very week for the World Economic Forum. Why the hell Derek Jeter is in Davos, Switzerland for a World Economic Forum I will never understand! But he claimed to have seen global warming when Hurricane Sandy hit New York.
"I was in New York for Hurricane Sandy," the New York Yankees shortstop told The Dispatch yesterday. "It's just something that's gotten so much attention.
Kinda funny how he says 'I was in New York for Hurricane Sandy' as though he scheduled for it and went there to see it on purpose. I guess living in a $15.5 million apartment on the 88th floor of Trump Tower, and being a NY Yankee shortstop qualifies you to speak at world economic forums as an expert on global warming. Funny, I didn't realize the flooding got all the way up to the 88th floor! Poor bugger! Thank God we sent him billions in relief! I hope he survives..
I wonder what kind of a carbon footprint Derek Jeter has? A $15.5 million apartment in NYC must have a good size carbon footprint! Perhaps not as big as the carbon footprint of his Tampa Florida mansion which measures 30,000 square feet.
But it is a good thing that he flew there in a private jet to complain about emissions and all that crap. Maybe while he is there he can recommend that all of us poor stupid middle class slobs and hacks can downsize our cars for something more fuel efficient. Or maybe he can have Obama force us to turn down our thermostats to 56 degrees...

The only reason she did so much damage was because of where she hit and the time of day.....period.
Had she hit 6 hours different either way, it would've been low tide and would've done minimal damage.
The geography of the region funnels a wide storm surge into a narrow one....anyone with a brain can tell you what that does to the height of the storm surge.
Had she been a hurrican, let alone a higher category one.....it would've been worse.
