US global warming hearing cancelled after "ice storm"

A note from the US House of Representatives for those who enjoy irony:
HOUSE HEARING ON 'WARMING OF THE PLANET' CANCELED AFTER ICE STORM
HEARING NOTICE
Tue Feb 13 2007 19:31:25 ET
The Subcommittee on Energy and Air Quality hearing scheduled for Wednesday, February 14, 2007, at 10:00 a.m. in room 2123 Rayburn House Office Building has been postponed due to inclement weather. The hearing is entitled ³Climate Change: Are Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Human Activities Contributing to a Warming of the Planet?²
The hearing will be rescheduled to a date and time to be announced later.
DC WEATHER REPORT:
Wednesday: Freezing rain in the morning. Total ice accumulation between one half to three quarters of an inch. Brisk with highs in the mid 30s. North winds 10 to 15 mph...increasing to northwest 20 to 25 mph in the afternoon. Chance of precipitation near 100 percent.
I figured some of you might enjoy that. I certainly did.

Stop the Press! Has anybody thought to check the temperature of the snow?

According to Al and his Warmmongers it should be warm snow.
