According to The Drudge Report:

GORE HEARING ON WARMING MAY BE PUT ON ICE
Mon Jan 26 2009 17:59:26 ET

Al Gore is scheduled before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on Wednesday morning to once again testify on the ‘urgent need’ to combat global warming. 

But Mother Nature seems ready to freeze the proceedings. 

A ‘Winter Storm Watch’ has been posted for the nation’s capitol and there is a potential for significant snow… sleet… or ice accumulations. 

“I can’t imagine the Democrats would want to showcase Mr. Gore and his new findings on global warming as a winter storm rages outside,” a Republican lawmaker emailed the DRUDGE REPORT. “And if the ice really piles up, it will not be safe to travel.” 

A spokesman for Sen. John Kerry, who chairs the committee, was not immediately available to comment on contingency plans. 

Global warming advocates have suggested this year’s wild winter spells are proof of climate change.

Funnily enough, this is not the first time this has happened:

• January 17, 2008: In Baltimore, a global warming protest got hammered with snow.
• February 28, 2007: Maryville University in St. Louis had to postpone a screening of “An Inconvenient Truth” due to a strong winter storm.
• February 15, 2007: Congress had to postpone a hearing on global warming because of an ice storm.

Also: notice how it’s gone from “proof of global warming” to “proof of climate change”?
