From the National Post of Canada

Snow cover over North America and much of Siberia, Mongolia and China is greater than at any time since 1966.

The U.S. National Climatic Data Center (NCDC) reported that many American cities and towns suffered record cold temperatures in January and early February. According to the NCDC, the average temperature in January “was -0.3 F cooler than the 1901-2000 (20th century) average.”

You should read the rest, little bit of snark in it but not too much and a couple great talking points for your AGW friends.

An insightful article from the Wall Street Journal highlighting the maniacal partisanship of Henry Waxman. This doesn’t surprise me at all and makes me wonder if I should create a new category for topics entitled ‘Ho Hum’.

Mr. Waxman doesn’t much care if any of this is true, because his larger goal is to send a message to every Inspector General in government: They answer to him. Mr. Waxman expects them to tee up political scandals in the executive branch and serve as witnesses for his prosecution whether or not the facts support it.
