WARHAWK

[Tyler]

This is the South you were talking about?

Snow in Dallas...

[Razor X]

Ah, that's just a little ground frost.   

[BALDANDRE]

Yep folks...THAT is what global warming is all about... extremes in weather....wait till the extreme heat this summer...

in my 38 yrs as a  Southern Californian I never remembered it being humid..hmmm, the last 3 summers were unbearable...

let's redefine then....

it's "climate change".. just coming a bit faster than normal

Gotta' disagree with you on this one BA.... last Summer was a nice comfortable Summer in these parts. I remember back to when I was a kid.... Wiinters were a lot more harsh than they are now..... they were a lot more like the one we are having now.

I'm a believer that it's all cyclical. The Earth heats, the earth cools.... real scientific facts support this... not like the conjured up "facts" that one of the leading scientists on the global warming team just got busted for......

Okay, guys, we basically agree on bald, can't we agree that the situation is worthy of further study?  That's really all we ask of the guys with mpb or the early signs that come here--what's so different about a potentially serious issue?

True...thought I'd throw that out there, I never like to talk bout that stuff....but you always get nah-sayers...

always...

the same types of arguments happened in the turn of the century when folks started talking about persevering  forest lands..at that point it was WHY...we have ALL this unused land...every generation...glad some really fought for that....

Snow in Dallas...

Haha!  Close but no cigar, Dallas is three hours north of me Tyler.  It's been down to the mid 30's but no snow here.  In a month we'll be wearing short sleeves. 

The people on the news in NY and Atlanta (CNN) saying "Oh Lord, it's so crazy that there's snow in Texas!" apparently don't realize how big the state is.  North Texas (DFW area) gets an abbreviated version of those OK winter mix onslaughts, and the panhandle borders Kansas and Colorado so it gets plenty of cold.  .   

[Nonick]

So, if you're 3 hours south of Dallas, in Texas terms, you're in a South Dallas suburb, 'cause everything is bigger in Texas'  :    
Actually, that might put you in Austin, San Antonio, or Houston.  So is it much warmer around southern Texas, say Corpus Christy or Larado?

Mike:
I think you are consciously or unconsciously advocating the Gaia Hypothesis, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaia_hypothesis, an interesting idea that, along with all others deserves serious examination.  It's far too early in the discussion to close off any avenue of investigation and all should consider all the concepts regarding weather and man's effect on it. 
JMO,

If we have excessive snow, it's attribtuable to global warming. If we have less than average snowfall, it's because of global warming. Our esteemed senator, Barbara Boxer  (among others) has been quoted saying both in the last 2 years.

I'm with Mike on this (as I apaprently am on many issues...except Jimmy Buffett). The earth cools, the earth warms. How do you explain ice ages and droughts before man? I don't think man made global warming killed the dinosaurs.

I need a break....Time to listen to Jimmy Buffett's "The Weather is Here, I Wish You Were Beautiful"
