Maybe they should continue to study the data

A study of weather station data from across the Northeast from 1965 through 2005 found December-March temperatures increased by 2.5 degrees. Snowfall totals dropped by an average of 8.8 inches across the region over the same period, and the number of days with at least 1 inch of snow on the ground decreased by nine days on average.

"Winter is warming greater than any other season," said Elizabeth Burakowski, who analyzed data from dozens of stations for her master's thesis in collaboration with Cameron Wake, a professor at the University of New Hampshire's Institute for the Study of Earth, Oceans and Space.

Of course then comes the winter of 2007 - 2008.


This winter we have the snowiest December on record [over 30 inches] and so far we are off to a great start here in January with another 8 inches today. Welcome to a true New England winter.
