Global warming is based on the average temp of the world, not warm spots on the globe. The average is dropping. While the Arctic was setting record highs, the Antarctic was setting record lows. CNN and the Weather Channel have closed their global warming news, they got a clue.

We have news from the National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC). They say: The melt is over. And we’ve added 9.4% ice coverage from this time last year. Though it appears NSIDC is attempting to downplay this in their web page announcement today, one can safely say that despite irrational predictions seen earlier this year, we didn’t reach an “ice free north pole” nor a new record low for sea ice extent. Its already been posted here. This is the first year in ten that that has happened. They are attributing it to La Niña. Let's see if it happens the same way next year when we are out of La Niña.
