DEADLY WINTER STORM HITS MID-WEST

CNN:
Snow and ice plastered a wide area of the Midwest on Saturday, interrupting campaigning by presidential hopefuls, disrupting airport and highway traffic and killing at least two people.

The National Weather Service posted winter storm and ice warnings across parts of Nebraska, Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin, the eastern Dakotas, Illinois and northern Michigan, although some warnings were lifted by midday.

Six to 16 inches of snow was forecast in parts of Minnesota.

Much of Iowa was hit by snow, sleet and freezing rain.

Hundreds of flights were canceled at airports in Des Moines, Chicago and Milwaukee.

Officials decided to close Des Moines International Airport for several hours after a United Airlines plane slid off a taxiway as it was heading to a runway for a flight to Chicago's O'Hare, said airport spokesman Roy Criss.

He said none of the 44 passengers was injured and the airport reopened by mid-afternoon.
THERE ARE TWO WAYS TO LOOK AT THIS NEWS:

  • LEFTIST ECO-NUTSIES: "MOVE ALONG; THERE'S NO NEWS HERE: HOTTER THAN USUAL TEMPS ARE CLIMATE, WHEREAS COLDER THAN NORMAL IS MERELY WEATHER."

  • SANE SKEPTICS: "THERE IS NO MAN-MADE GLOBAL WARMING."

WHO ARE YOU GOING TO BELIEVE, THE LEFTIST ECO-NUTSIES OR YOUR LYING EYES!?

ASIDE:
GEE... I WONDER IF "STOPPING GLOBAL WARMING" CAME UP IN THE DEMOCRAT PRESIDENTIAL FORUM HELD IN IOWA!?
