LUCKNOW, India (AP) -- More than 100 people have died of exposure as northern India deals with historically cold temperatures.
Police spokesman Surendra Srivastava said Thursday that at least 114 people have died from the recent cold in the state of Uttar Pradesh. Many were poor people whose bodies were found on sidewalks or in parks.
The weather department said temperatures were 7 to 18 degrees F below average in the state.
Temperatures in New Delhi, which borders Uttar Pradesh, hit a high Wednesday of 49.6 degrees F, the lowest maximum temperature in the capital since 1969.

National Public Radio (NPR) and Associated Press push discredited global warming claims that "extreme weather" in 2012 is "the new normal," ignoring scientific studies that disprove the the alarmists.

I don't buy into AGW, but in NC the last 3-4 winters never bothered to actually winter. We seem to go straight from fall back to spring now. Which is a PITA because without a real winter the tick season becomes like something from a B rated horror movie. I was hoping for a hard winter this year, but it's the mildest winter yet. Highs in the 50's and 60's, it's 41° right now. At 9:30PM on January 4th. It should be in the low 30's or high 20's right now.

This spring is going to really suck. Maybe I could cover my house and half my property with mosquito netting and hope it cuts down on the ticks literally flying through the air and landing on people. Last year, after a mild winter, just walking the 40 feet from the driveway to the front door you could find as many as 5 tiny little ticks on yourself. As many as 10 if you were one of those who particularly attracts the infernal buggers.

I've been attributing the wacky weather of late to a persistent La Niña system in the oceans distorting the jet stream. We desperately need to kick the cycle back into an El Niño and bring winter back to NC. If not for the springtime tick problem, I'd probably be loving the extraordinarily mild winters of late.

3 years ago, in the subtropics of louisiana, we had 4 snow storms.
we average one snow storm a decade.
