if you cant tell me the temps in my town in two months, you cant tell me the temps in my town in 50 years.  :whatever:

I can't tell you what the temperature will be in your town in two months, but I can tell you that April there will probably be warmer than February there.

Scientists studying climate change don't claim to be able to tell people what the temperatures will be in various places in 50 years. What they are attempting to do is predict global climate trends... increases and decreases... not temperature absolutes.

If you're really interested in learning about what scientists are doing to study global warming, a good place to start is here...

Some of the material on Real Climate is meant for scientists, but there are a lot of other articles on it which are meant for public consumption.

The Japanese Meteorological Agency's Climate Modelling has been saying since last fall that February was going to be an month where temperatures in Northern Japan were above the norm, and we'd recieve less snow fall then usual.

It's the 14th, and we've already got 3/4 our monthly average of snow fall, and temps have been below the norm.  And it's like this across the entire part of Northern Honshu, and Hokkaido.
