Winter storm pummels central US – As much as 3 inches of snow per hour – More than a dozen more states to be affected in coming days.
By the time the storm ended, said KOMO radio, the storm had dumped 14.2 inches (36 cm) of snow on Wichita, Kansas, Wichita’s 2nd biggest snowfall on record.
The Weather Channel forecast up to a foot of snow for Omaha, Neb., 3 to 6 inches of snow and sleet for St. Louis, 8 to 12 inches of snow for Kansas City, Mo., and 3 to 6 inches of snow for Chicago.
Kansas and Missouri declared states of emergency, while airlines canceled flights and Kansas City International Airport closed altogether.
Along the Kansas-Nebraska state line, up to 1½ feet (45 cm) of snow was expected.
Advisories for snow, ice, wind or rain were posted as far south as the Texas Panhandle, as far north as Minnesota and Wisconsin and as far east as the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina.
Earlier this week, the same storm closed roads and stranded cars in California and snowfall delayed a golf tournament in southern Arizona.
The storm was expected to move toward Chicago and Minneapolis on Friday, then dump snow on New England for the third weekend in a row, and douse a stretch of Georgia and the Florida Panhandle with 7 inches of rain and leave a wintry mix of snow and ice on the eastern side of the Appalachian Mountains, including parts of Virginia, West Virginia and North Carolina, the Weather Channel reported.
All this, while Secretary of State John Kerry prattles on about man-made global warming.
As far as I’m concerned, the man is a complete liar.
I wonder how long it will take for the American public to wake up.

This is the proof out Great Leader Obama has been waiting for. His massive intellecthas hhad tonwait for the less intelligent of us not imbued with his unreal intellectto see that the massive amounts of snow falling exactly where it has during cool downs and ice ages with similar rain and drought pattern proves global warmin is real! Let us fall to our knees and give praise to this genius leading us away from the horrors of man made climate change wrought by global warming with the ever increasing glaciers and killing snow. Oh my god, are we not blessed to have such a Great Leader. Does it not send chills up your leg?
There is still a little bit of snow around the house here in Oro Valley, AZ…4 or 5 days after the storm.
Kerry isn’t necessarily lying on purpose; he’s just hoping against hope that what he has been told to believe–is true.
Government leaders can’t afford for man-made global warming to be a myth. Since 1992, they’ve been counting on it happening–they also conveniently saw how a “Carbon [dioxide] Tax” (first announced at the same time) would coincidentally be the answer to mounting National Debt. Leaders of bankrupt countries all over the world have been counting on revuenes from a carbon [dioxide] taxes (and carbon [dioxide] trading schemes, a.k.a., Cap and Trade.
And, without man-made global warming, there is no logical need for a carbon [dioxide] tax.
So although the planet is not warming–and carbon dioxide isn’t causing the planet to precipitously warm–they keep right on talking about carbon [dioxide] ‘pollution’ and that we must act now to stop the threat of ‘climate change.’
The climate is changing alright. Since 1997, the temperature has been dropping. The sky is falling alright–with a lot of white stuff–all over the world.

Thin Snowpack in West Signals Summer of Drought

Farmers, ranchers and officials across the area had hoped for plentiful snows to replenish the ground and refill rivers, but that has not come to pass.

The planet is cooling rapidly in the last few years – regardless of what anybody says. We just had the COLDEST EVER temperature across the Northern Hemisphere on Feb.19th, 2013 at -96.1 F below ZERO.
This is now officially the COLDEST EVER Northern Hemisphere temperature, shattering the old cold record of -90 F. This is extremely significant news, plus the Arctic ice cap shattering all growth records this year and the Antarctica the most ice extent on record also.
