It’s Winter, It’s Cold, Bring On The Global Warming Denialists: Polar Vortex Style
Did you know winter disproves global warming? It’s true, that is, if you watch Fox News. I know this because Donald Trump told me during a segment on Fox & Friends. And everyone knows ‘The Donald’ never lies.

Yes Uncle Bob, Despite Winter, Global Warming Is Still Real
Well, it’s that time of year again. The time when Fox News viewers and your Uncle Bob dispense the usual liberal goading climate change denialism. You know, it’s snowing, it’s cold, therefore global warming is a hoax. There’s a blizzard, so time to make fun of Al Gore. It’s winter, hence no greenhouse effect.

Winter Storm Nemo: Weather.com Needs To Take It Down A Notch
First we have the winter storm names, which is just ridiculous. Now we have the sensational headlines like “HISTORIC, EXTREME SNOW” and “DEADLY NOR’EASTER”. Gawker has an amusing piece titled “Snow Panic Has Driven Weather.com Completely Insane.”

Winter Solstice Lunar Eclipse
Last night I braved the cold and the early morning hours to witness the first lunar eclipse that coincides with the winter solstice since December 21, 1638. If you missed it, you will have to wait until 2094 for the next time it will happen on the winter solstice. So, basically if you missed it last night you missed it for good! Given that I fancy myself a photographer you would think that I would have had this all planned out but I actually didn’t even intend to take photos until I was outside looking at it and made a last minute decision to grab the tripod, camera and long lens. And the resulting photos are a product of that last minute decision. They aren’t horrible but they could have been much better.
