Hi FD,
to be honest I'm not sure.

As I already said - have a look through here -
There are 444 pages of it:
https://www.ozpolitic.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1464603949/0#0

Every page has a surprising finding -
that thread is packed with amazing facts -
record cold temperatures
sometimes going back 100 years or more.
Snow and ice in areas where you'd never expect it.

New words - bombogenesis -
to try and explain massive continent wide
extreme cold weather events.
Arctic weather coming down over the USA
and of course Europe.
We've seen ice and snow on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea -
even ice in Saudi Arabia -
a hot desert - I thought?
It's not just an isolated cold weather event -
it's on every continent of the world and each
winter seems to bring more surprises.

I thought skeptics think the climate is cooling?
They don't believe in global warming -
they don't believe in Al Gore's bullshit.

First you will have to detail this "overwhelming" evidence.

Do you want to talk about it? I know you channel Freud, well perhaps not, perhaps you just make schist up. Freud was good at that too.

Is that merely warming or runaway climate emergency warming? The Roman and Mediaeval Warm periods were about as warm as now. What caused that? Chariots with 8 horses instead of 4? Grin

We often see silly claims from climate change deniers about record snowfalls, with either an implicit or explicit suggestion that more snow must mean colder temperatures. But this is not actually true. It is just another example of the climate 'skeptic' movement taking advantage of people's ignorance.

If you want to know the temperature, check the temperature, not the depth of the snow.

The northern hemisphere winter this year was one of the “coldest in decades”, with experts in Finland suggesting record snowfall will likely not even melt through summer.

Does more snow mean it was colder or warmer Bobby?

Bobby is the worst culprit in his ignorance about that. But Bobby isn't very clever.

Snowfall is not a measure of temperature, it is a measure of precipitation

The Right Wing only believe in free speech when they agree with what is being said.

Given that you support the grifter known as Al Gore
- I say that you aren't very clever.
