STORM SYSTEM SLAMS SOUTHEAST IN ADVANCE OF ARCTIC AIR …
By FITSNEWS || South Carolina (the entire Southeast, actually) was ravaged by a powerful line of thunderstorms on Monday – part of a wave of severe weather preceding a fresh blast of arctic air.
The storm front – which has produced at least one confirmed tornado near Blountstown, Florida – was part of a broader meteorological roller coaster. Temperatures were expected to climb by nearly thirty degrees during the middle of the day as the front moved through – only to plunge by comparable amounts in the late evening and early morning hours in the wake of the front.
High temperatures for the Midlands region of South Carolina were projected to hit 70 degrees not long after noon on Monday, yet forecasts called for them to dip below freezing scarcely twelve hours later.
Fortunately for the Palmetto State, most of the tornado watches were in effect for Florida and the southern half of Georgia – although the Lowcountry of South Carolina could be at risk depending on the strength of the system.
It’s been a weird fall season for weather … with this month already producing the earliest recorded snowfall in Palmetto State history (well, since measurements began in 1881).
And yes, the disciples of global warming view every temperature reading as further validation of their theory … so don’t bother arguing that these recent weather patterns are the result of anything other than “climate change.”

“soaked”? It sprinkled for a few minutes downtown.
Damndest thing I’ve ever seen. It’s raining in November in the Southeast.
Must be a slow news day.
Don’t you have a Clemson injury to misreport?
“And yes, the disciples of global warming view every temperature reading as further validation of their theory.”
Get with the program. It’s now “climate change” because the cold snap is ruining the optics.
Actually its the disciples of Fake News who view every temperature variation, every snowfall, every cold snap as proof global warming does not exist. Most everyone else tries to listen to scientist, instead of congressmen who keep saying, I’m not a scientist, but I just don’t believe the scientist because its bad for businessmen who give me money.
Most of us concerned about the effects of human activity on global warming know that early snow in SC does not prove there is no global warming, nor does a drought in California prove there is, in isolation. However real things like this do concern us.

Typical Fake News fan.
I’d go with phys.org over some random dude’s politically motivated “science” wordpress blog.
All it is, is an aggregation of all the “Global Cooling” stories from the 70’s.
Did you even bother to click the link or did you make assumptions?
There wasn’t even a “science” statement made. Are you disputing the aggregation?
lulz…you zealots really blow my mind sometimes.
Same back at you.
Dude, you do realize that the difference between a 1970s Climatologist and a 2015 Climatologist is like the difference between a Commodore 64 and the latest Dell Model with Maxed out Ram and an Intel I-7 Processor.
They just aren’t the same animal.
I’m just pointing out that the science seems ever changing, but everyone is always “sure” at the time they are making it.

You’re lying, the right would never do such a thi-

Oh, well, uh… Big government! Global Cooling! Benghazi!
Manbearpig is in there and we all have to kill him while we all have the chance, I’m cereal!

Typical Fox News watcher. Lets get our facts from a 10 year old South Park.
Inverted hockey stick!
However real things like this do concern us.

That explains all those powerful hurricanes we had this year.
“Page Removed” ..??
Sorry. Copy and paste didn’t work on the link from Libtard’s post. It’s fixed now…
TBG, could this have some relationship to the news article I read several weeks ago about the shifting of the magnetic north pole?
Oh NO . The earth is going to turn up side down, and we will all fall off. Where is Al Gore when we need guidance ? LOL I just hope they get global warming under control soon. It’s getting cold here. LOL
As important as these “sky is falling” jerks think they are they should do something. I have a rooster that is fully convinced that his crowing is what brings the sun up every morning. I’ll guarantee if he could vote he would be a Dim. LOL
Maybe you should learn the difference between climate and weather..or never-mind and just keeping sprouting crap all day long.
I’ll keep spouting crap and you keep listening to libturds. We will see who wins. LOL
Science is neither liberal nor conservative, only politicians are, but then again Republicans do not believe in science. Science, involves facts and those just make lying and cheating to complicated.
Somewhere in an old trunk are some books from a summer where my travel reading was about the planets, stars, etc. If my memory is correct, one of those books had a discussion on the Earth changing its rotation several times. So at times the Sun rose in the West. Don’t hold me to it, however I’ll search to see if I can find the book, and then post my findings.
There is no evidence of a rotation change that I’ve ever heard hint of, but the magnetic poles have switched a number of times: N-to-S and vice versa. The last time was about 700,000 years ago.
What’s the difference between a lawyer and a rooster?
When a rooster wakes up in the morning, its primal urge is to cluck defiance.
We need the Congressman who was worried that Guam would tip over to break this down for us.
Did you see that footage of Al Gore’s camera crew killing that polar bear?
I’m still evacuated…is it safe to return?
Did you wipe up after?
Environmentalists do not discuss “global warming” any more, since records show that the atmosphere has actually been cooling slightly in recent years. That is why they now talk about “climate change.” They don’t know what is going to happen, but they figure the climate will change one way or another.
Yes, be concerned. Be very concerned.
Those fools at phys.org do *) publish without peer review and *) do so without regard to the credibility of “facts” cited.
This is a perfect example: the article insisting that the oceans are warming while that only happened a decade ago in the Northern Hemisphere, the Southern Hemisphere oceans cooling by a bit more. And that data has been fudged to generate more g’ment “science” jobs … Like “work study” assignments aboard the NOAA cruise ships plying the Pacific paradise islands.
(One of the Pacific Bases: http://www.moc.noaa.gov/MOC-PI/index.html … Cruise ships over 100 tons: http://www.moc.noaa.gov … Don’t believe? Visit the NOAA Atlantic fleet base right there in Charleston.)
BTW: Latest snooze from NOAA: there is no global warming.
Remember everyone… the interior of the Earth is extremely hot, several million degrees. I’m super cereal!
Ollie Williams’ forecast.
Dang. Need to get the rest of the cotton crop in.
This stormy weather was caused by Mississippi State losing to Alabama on Saturday!
My grandfather as he fed his hogs
said the world was going to the dogs.
His grandfather in his house of logs
said the world was going to the dogs,
His grandfather in his leather togs
said the world was going to the dogs.
His grandfather in the Scottish bogs
said the world was going to the dogs.
The only thing I have to state
is that the dogs have had a mighty long wait.
Why did the chicken cross the road? Well, according to Al Gore, “He never made it. With all the global warming, he was fried as soon as he hit the hot asphalt.”
