I find it interesting that it's actually thermal expansion of water that causes sea level rise, and not the melting of ice caps.
Thermal expansion is probably one of the strongest indicators of global warming. Since the specific heat of water is high compared to surrounding surfaces it takes a much larger amount of heat to raise the temperature of water.

FRPLG,

You are correct. Any short term weather pattern is not and should not be used as evidence. I guess I did a poor job of stating that. Maybe a little bias on my part. :cheeky-sm
