Some commenters took pictures of huge piles of snow and added comments such as, "this doesn’t look like global warming." do these commenters have a point? should extreme snowfall over the course of a season cast doubt on the theory of global climate change? make a scientific argument explaining why you agree or disagree with these commenters

i disagree

Explanation:

it could be a strong storm and the heat made it look like a normal storm

The comments are not right.

Explanation:

Considering that the world is getting hotter as a result of human-induced climate change and global warming, snowfalls may seem strange to some. If the world is heating up, shouldn't these blizzards be rarer?

One answer - which always comes after a heavy snowstorm - is to say that global warming is a "myth".

The real answer to this phenomenon is quite surprising. Extreme snowfall is an expected consequence of a warmer world, so the accumulation of large amounts of snow only reinforces that global warming is real.

It may seem paradoxical, but this is because we usually believe that cold weather is the only condition for snow. In fact, blizzards need something else to happen: a fair amount of atmospheric moisture. In general, this humidity is formed in hot air masses, because the atmosphere can hold 7% more water vapor whenever the temperature rises 1ºC.

Such pockets of hot air have become more common with climate change, and help explain what happened on the US east coast this winter in the northern hemisphere. Partly as a result of global warming, the Atlantic Ocean is hotter today than it was a few decades ago. The result is that the air over the Atlantic is also warmer and more humid.

When that hot air met the cold, dry Arctic air, a winter storm broke out - and conditions were in place for a gigantic blizzard.
