Blizzard Conditions

A winter storm has caused blizzard conditions that has closed I-94 from Jamestown East to Minnesota and I-29 from the South Dakota border to Canada. The interstates were closed at 8:30am and the storm is supposed to leave between 7-10 inches of snow.

@skylarportland 63 CERN scientists from 17 European and American institutes have demonstrated that cosmic rays promote the formation of molecules that in Earth’s atmosphere can grow and seed clouds, the cloudier and thus cooler it will be. Because the sun’s magnetic field controls how many cosmic rays reach Earth’s atmosphere (the stronger the sun’s magnetic field, the more it shields Earth from incoming cosmic rays from space), the sun determines the temperature on Earth. (Checkmate.)

@skylarportland CERN, by the way, is the organization that invented the World Wide Web, that built the multi-billion dollar Large Hadron Collider, and that has now built a pristinely clean stainless steel chamber that precisely recreated the Earth’s atmosphere.

@politicoochie09 Oh, well someone might want to let the thousands of scientists know that then, because their Masters degrees they worked for are starting to back-fire. Over 80% of scientists would have a huge problem with your claim. When you contact a few of them and hear the causes of global warming, I'd love to see the look on your face when you too, would be embarrassed.

@skylarportland Laugh out loud all you want, but 99.999 percent of the earth's weather fluctuations are caused by the Sun. Look it up and you'll stop laughing. (You might be embarrassed.)

@lordcrusade Oh, I can believe it. I grew up at the 6500 ft elevation in WY for 24 yrs. Your skin is thick to have to live in that sort of rigid weather. There were many, many times it would be white-out conditions outside, we couldn't see the car in the driveway, but still had to go to work, because that is the "norm" there. Your 30 mile, 25 min commute just becomes a 4 hr commute.

@politicoochie09 uhhhhhhh, ok. LOL

[lordcrusade]

@skylarportland and this one isn't even half ass bad in ND because majority of the blizzards in ND are 10 times worse than what is shown

[politicoochie09]

Yes, all this global "warming" is making me thirsty!

I hope everyone realizes that our weird weather is caused by the activities of the sun and nothing more. Solar winds, sun spots, and magnetic fluctuations are the cause. Not God, not Man. The Sun.

TO ALL: notice where the poster puts "White Out" across the screen. *THIS* is a white-out, not snowing but you could still see a few hundred feet away. Yes, THIS is what you call a blizzard. I always said a blizzard is just a step-up from a white-out.

Both a blizzard AND a white-out need to have GUSTY winds, there are no buts about it.

Winters in ND & WY are *VERY, VERY* similar, especially southern WY where I lived for 24 yrs. I give thumbs up for knowing correct winter terminology :-)

wooo, yay! ND blizzards....if you can survive one, you're pretty much all set to live here lol
