Cornell-educated Tensumaggot is a simpleton. This idiot Tensumaggot is ignorant of the fact that the North pole is cold, and if the airmass from the arctic moves elsewhere, that 'elsewhere' can be really cold.

Idiot Tensumaggot and Coultermaggot, Cornell should be ashamed.

"I thought warming oceans were supposed to lead to warmer climates, not colder.
No wait, it's more extreme weather, right?"

Both.

"we aren't seeing more extreme weather because the oceans are absorbing the heat and masking the worst effects of "climate change."

I'd say we are seeing more extreme weather because the oceans are absorbing the heat, and the worst effects are being masked by aerosols.

We need to rethink everything we know about global warming
New calculations show scientists have grossly underestimated the effects of air pollution
Date:January 22, 2019

Summary:New research shows that the degree to which aerosols cool the earth has been grossly underestimated, necessitating a recalculation of climate change models to more accurately predict the pace of global warming.

Rosenfeld and his colleagues were able to more accurately calculate aerosols' cooling effects on the Earth's energy budget. And, they discovered that aerosols' cooling effect is nearly twice higher than previously thought.

However, if this is true then how come the earth is getting warmer, not cooler? For all of the global attention on climate warming, aerosol pollution rates from vehicles, agriculture and power plants is still very high. For Rosenfeld, this discrepancy might point to an ever deeper and more troubling reality. "If the aerosols indeed cause a greater cooling effect than previously estimated, then the warming effect of the greenhouse gases has also been larger than we thought, enabling greenhouse gas emissions to overcome the cooling effect of aerosols and points to a greater amount of global warming than we previously thought," he shared.
