About that Global Warming - all minus 135.8 degrees Fahrenheit of it

The old record had been -128.6 degrees, which is -89.2 degrees Celsius.

Ice scientist Ted Scambos at the National Snow and Ice Data Center said the new record is "50 degrees colder than anything that has ever been seen in Alaska or Siberia or certainly North Dakota."

Polar ice coverage is greater than in the last ten years, Antarctica is showing record cold temperatures. Where is the warming? We certainly could use some now. I remember back during the great heat wave of July 2012 when 2,253 records for high temperatures were broken. The media were having a field-day. What the news media did not tell you is that during the same period, 936 records for low temperature were also broken. Media? Crickets...
