I think I trust the opinions of professional meteorologists far more than some blog writer.

I don't know who the author of this particular post is, but the editor of the blog apparently has a Ph.D. in Physics from M.I.T. I'm pretty sure that means he's not just "some blog writer."

Geez some people have thick skulls! Doesn’t take a PHD in physics to understand: a warming climate overall will make warm weather phenomenon that already exists stronger.

I have yet to hear a meteorologist claim that, so I'd be interested in your source. And by the way, I have a Ph.D. in physics too.

Carl, if you keep ignoring what people wrote, we will start ignoring you. The record-breaking January heat wavewe have been experiencing in the East is most likely due to a combination of El Niño and global warming. Also, there have been numerous scientific papers suggesting that global warming makes El Niño's more likely. Try googling the two phrases and applying your physics knowledge to the scientific papers that show up. That is NOT what he wrote.
