Major snowstorm may threaten DC to NYC
USA Today: ‘Blizzard conditions are possible’ – ‘It could be the first storm in 13 years to dump a foot of snow on the entire Northeast megalopolis, Weather.com reported. More than 50 million people could be affected by snowfall heavy enough to disrupt travel by road, rail and air.’
Fox 5 DC: ‘Before you continue reading, take note: there are still many question marks surrounding this potential storm, and it’s too soon to tell exactly how much snow– if any, for sure– we might see locally.’
“FOX 5’s Tucker Barnes shared the European model’s prediction for this system on Monday morning. The model’s run as of about midnight on Sunday indicates the storm could bring possible snow totals across the Washington area of 1-2 feet– not inches.”

‘Ice Car’: Vehicle Parked Next to Lake Erie Freezes Over
High winds and freezing temperatures in Buffalo, New York on Sunday night left the owner of this car, Justin Yelen, with a treat on Monday morning: a thick layer of ice coating his entire car.
“Wind gusts of up to 47 mph produced huge waves on Lake Erie near Buffalo, causing the waterto spill over and freeze onto parked cars,” ABC News reported. Needless to say, Yelen wasn’t very pleased.
“I hope summer comes soon,” Yelen told local ABC station WKBW. He left his car parked overnight in a lot next to the lake after having drinks with friends and deciding not to drive home. He told news reporters he would have to get rides from his parents until the car thawed out to see if will start or if he’ll need to get it towed.

The universal, voodoo all-purpose bogeyman: Climate Change.
World savers are anything but. They always have an unspoken motive. H.L. Mencken saw the self-appointed saviors for what they were almost a century ago, when he said the “whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.”
The most persistent hobgoblin of the last quarter-century has been global warming, now called climate change but eventually to be known as extreme weather, or some such other fright-inducing name. The climate activists are constantly bombarding us with warnings, hectoring, hysteria, pleading and threats. Apocalyptic books have been written and shrill movies made, all in an effort to slow man’s combustion of fossil fuels.…
