Climate Change-Drought Connection Not 'Significant' In 2012

Some blogs are in a tizzy over this obviously unsanctioned variance from the talking points.

They need some sort of crime dog, to sniff them out and report them to the reeducation camps for learning "Teh Scyienz!!!"

The NOAA are rightfully being cautious. Any one weather event, or even a whole year of freakish weather doesn't make a climate norm. That includes 1 particular temperature spike from 15 years ago that denialists like to harp on about incessantly as the 'end of warming' even after their error has been explained to them.

We're in the middle of an Ice Age, on the precipice of a glacial period. Anthropogenic global warming might just save us.

What I was trying to communicate is that every year we have higher temperatures and continuing drought, and the climate change crowd uses that as an example to support their POV. NOAA is contradicting that POV, at least for 2012.
