Where's the boiling ocean?
The Carbon Cult criminals are telling us that the current northeast SuperSnows are caused by warming, supposedly because unusually warm ocean water is evaporating more.
I screen-capped this chart of North Atlantic ocean surface temps from NOAA.
The left column is today's surface temps at each location. I've highlighted in yellow the historical averages for February. The locations above this screen had no current data, so this screen represents all the currently available measurements for North Atlantic coastal points.
Do you see any unusual warmth? I don't. Three of these locations are above Feb average by a fraction, one is below. Considering that today's date is near the end of Feb, the average for this date would likely be higher than the full-month Feb average anyway. ¶ 8:08 AM
