That's an impressive picture of some Global Warming Climate Disruption Climate Change.

Quoted from Box A Rox

That is certainly true...but it works both ways..
So when the weather channel or some other weather head claims this summer that the heat wave we are in is being caused by climate change, you'd feel the same way..right?

impressive pictures!!

Yes...when there was a higher frequency of larger more powerful hurricanes, like Katrina, Irene and Sandy, the global warming zealots used weather occurrences as proof of global warming.  But...the historically cold weather can not be cited to question the global warming zealots theory of global warming.  

Its very cool that you can take the Amtrak  from Schenectady. The Amtrak station on the  Canadian side is  only  a mile from the falls.
I took my mom on the trip 10 years ago. You will need a passport to get across now- then she only needed  her birth certificate.

Trains are a very cool vacation for older people.  The window becomes like a TV.

Extreme Weather and Climate Change

Strong scientific evidence links climate change with increasing heat waves, coastal flooding, and other
extreme weather events.
Extreme weather and climate change
What's the connection between global warming and extreme weather? When it comes to heat waves and
coastal flooding, the scientific evidence is clear: Human-caused climate change is increasing these extreme
weather events.

Other forms of severe weather are also closely linked to climate change, including a rise in extreme
precipitation events in some regions and increasingly severe droughts in others.

The effect of climate change on tornadoes and hurricanes is an active area of research. Scientific
confidence with observed data is currently low, though the underlying mechanisms of climate change are
expected to play a role.

Box, you can't have it both ways... Saying climate change is a factor in certain weather events that involve warming but passing off record cold as having nothing to do with it....
Either the climate and weather are connected..for all... or for none..

The climate scientists torquing data and the media who gleefully report it are doing more to hurt the effort to become greener  and ultimately limit the effects than any backwoods conservative denier.

They look like chicken little's and dishonest to the average Joe when they play with figures to make it seem more impending than it is.

I think you've got something there.

I guess the scientific community is entitled to cook the data to make it seem more dire than it already is?
Got it...
Scientists are primary government or grant funded
Bad news gets more research dollars, good news doesn't
Worse than bad news gets even more dollars
NASA is in the business of bad news since they no longer are a space exploration administration.

I guess NASA and pols are more closely related than I thought.... lying or stretching  the truth doesn't matter as long as the end justifies it.
Only thing is they sometimes lie on the opposite end of things..
Climate Scientists overstate
Pols understate i.e. Deficit spending and taxes

It's amazing how 2 great pics of the falls can generate so much banter about climate/weather/warming/cooling/heating/thawing!!!
Guess what people...it's real simple...IT'S FREAKIN' COLD...bottom line.  Cold has been around all my life, including bone chilling
cold like now...it comes around and goes around....IT'S JUST FREAKIN' COLD!!!!!

PS - GOOGLE Niagara Falls frozen...it's happened a lot more than you think. going WAY WAY WAY BACK!!!!

Finally!  Box admits scientist have their OPINION about global warming/cooling/climate change/disruption.  

One day many,many,many years from now the Falls will be no more.   Saw a TV special on this on Public TV, think it was NOVA.   The falls are receeding due to the erosion of the falls by the power of the water.
