Global Warming?

WRITTEN BY JONATHAN KROHN

            In the United Arab Emirates, a country in the Arabian Peninsula a major snowfall has been reported.  This is quite an astonishing fact when you consider that Jebel Jais, the place where the snow fall was that this only the second time a snowfall has been recorded in the nation’s history!  The National, a United Arab Emirates news agency, reports:

“Snow covered the Jebel Jais area for only the second time in recorded history yesterday.

So rare was the event that one lifelong resident said the local dialect had no word for it.? According to the RAK Government, temperatures on Jebel Jais dropped to -3°C on Friday night. On Saturday, the area had reached 1°C.

Major Saeed Rashid al Yamahi, a helicopter pilot and the manager of the Air Wing of RAK Police, said the snow covered an area of five kilometres and was 10cm deep.

“The sight up there this morning was totally unbelievable, with the snow-capped mountain and the entire area covered with fresh, dazzling white snow,” Major al Yamahi said.”

Wait a minute, did I just read this properly, Jebel Jais, United Arab Emirates is having only its second snowfall in history with temperatures dropping at one point to -3 degrees Celsius, the equivalent of 29 degrees Fahrenheit?  Yes, I did.  And Al Gore, and the Liberal world wants us to believe in perpetual manmade global warming while this is occurring?  That doesn’t make any since.  Even here in the United States we are finding very cold temperatures, sometimes even record breaking cold temperatures.  CNN reported on January 14th,

“Frigid air gripped cities from the Canadian border to Florida on Wednesday, with some cities posting record lows.

Snow in cities such as Indianapolis, Indiana, brought rush-hour traffic to a near-standstill.

Records were posted in the Michigan cities of Flint, at 19 below, and Saginaw, 10 below, and in parts of the Lower Mississippi Valley, where places like Hot Springs and Monticello, Arkansas, were in the low 20s, said Andrew Orrison, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service.

He was unable to immediately access the previous records.

Subzero temperatures were accompanied by wind chills as low as 40 degrees below zero. The wind chill factor describes the combined effect of the wind and cold temperatures on exposed skin, making the temperature feel colder than it is.

"The temperature outside is unbelievable," said Jennifer Flesher of Princeton, Illinois, where she said the temperature was 8 degrees with a wind chill of minus 12. "I went outside to use a snow blower, and my lungs actually started hurting. It catches your breath."

Minneapolis, Minnesota, posted a reading of 19 below zero, and it was 14 below in Fargo, North Dakota, where the wind chill made it feel like 31 below, said CNN meteorologist Chad Myers.”

Hmmm… Global Warming?  Hardly.  These weather reports show chill to the bone cold across the country.  Could it be that in a weather cycle that changes as often as ours, continual manmade global warming is not applicable?  Yes.  We have a changing weather cycle that is not always hot, and not always cold.  In summary, how can perpetual, ever present, manmade global warming, such as Al Gore and the Left supports, continue to coexist in our world with the aforementioned weather reports and the record lows mentioned in those stories?  The truth is, manmade global warming can't.
