Arctic ice was pushed out, rather than melted | Herald Sun Andrew Bolt Blog
Serial alarmist Marian Wilkinson on the ABC’s Four Corners hailed the big Arctic melt of 2007 as evidence the world was heating disastrously and man was to blame
...
Wilkinson never explained why the end of the earth we had to go to for evidence was the top, and not the bottom, where sea ice was actually increasing
Jesse Ferrell: Lookin` like a fool with yo snow on the ground
The NWS issued this statement on Feb. 16th saying that the old record of 54 consectutive days of 5+ snow cover had been broken, and the new record was then 70 days
...
Why the record? Since Des Moines is only 9th for snowfall, it's not the snow, as much as the persistent cold, that has allowed this to happen. According to AccuWeather.com they are 6 degrees below normal for this month, with January coming in at -3.5 F. They haven't been above 35 degrees since January 24th, so the snow just can't melt.
A similar situation is unfolding in other areas...
All-time Record Low Nearly Reached in Europe
--Europe as a whole has lately warmed following one of several far-reaching cold snaps to have happened this winter. However, as overall warming proceeded over the continent as a whole, the Russian Arctic (and Finland) waxed bitterly cold.

Khosedakhard, which lies in the far-northeast of Europe (which is not truly a continent but a subcontinent with arbitrary boundaries), has been at the heart of this late-week bitter cold. Early on Friday (0600 UTC), the temperature read -55.6C/-70F. I do not know if this was the low.

Wikipedia have that the lowest on record in Europe was -58.1C/-73F at Ust`Shchugor, Russia, which lies west of the Ural Mts and a few hundred km farther south.
Warning Signs: The Multi-Billion Dollar Global Warming Fraud
As the massive global warming fraud implodes, the one aspect of it that has not been explored in depth is the equally massive waste of billions of dollars spent by the United States and nations around the world, we were told, to avoid global warming.
