Rush Limbaugh recently pointed to the extraordinary and even record snowfall events on the East Coast and in Texas and said these events are "driving a nail in coffin of the global warming theory"—or words to that effect.
Mr. Limbaugh is not a meteorologist or other weather or climate scientist. When he does not know what he is talking about, he should keep quiet—not that he's ever adhered to that principle before. In fact, he makes his living sounding off when he is all opinion and no fact.
The reason he is wrong this time: Meteorologists are telling us that these snow events were the result of warmer Arctic air.
