The Arctic was their last hope, and that is collapsing under their feet. Spectacular cold is persisting – as we normally would be heading into the melt season.

Hansen can keep his pink crayon out, but the ice won’t lie for him.
Brisk 15.5C here in sunny Broome this morning…over 7C below April average…
You’ll have some brisk winter nights this year. Here in sunny Queensland I haven’t seen the sun for 3 days and am wearing long sleeves. I reckon we’ll get snow in SE Queensland this year.
bought a heater 2 years ago and everyone laughed…I laughed last…3 years ago all the resorts panicked and airfreighted hundreds of heaters during a winter cold snap. It does get as low as 5 or 6C during June sometimes.
This is what they’ll say:
“Arctic ice? What Arctic ice? Short term variation is not relevant. Global warming is happening and man is certainly the cause.”
I’ve noticed several stories recently that seem to be a re-jiggering of US CO2 production, no doubt to later claim this is why things turned cold.
But it would be nice if the summer Minimum made a large advance. Just to put a damper on the screeching.
This is genuine oldfashioned Coldcold that grandpa used to know! How is NOAA going to explain that away? No reason to explain, just color in the reds and pinks.
Don’t get carried away with facts. You will simply begin to see more reports of warmth in antarctica. No one lives there so there is no one to contradict claims of extreme warmth.
Nature sure likes to falsify human expectations. That’s one thing I’ve learned watching the insanity of the alarmists soothsaying unfounded doomsday scenarios. Darker blue is COLDER, and Greenland needs to be renamed Iceland but that name is already taken!
One would think that that much cold MUST BE sucking up huge amounts of moisture from the air and seas and possibly leading to the drop in sea levels? Hmmmm…
Time to learn more; under the conditions in Greenland over the past few N months where N is between 0 and ~36 months, have the conditions, temperature, atmospheric pressures, water moisture content of the air, etc… been conducive to absorbing lots of moisture and converting it to snow and ice? Who keeps track of this information? Is the weather station data enough to know this or do we need a satellite source (might be better)? How long before we know the latest GRACE gravity readings for Greenland and the rest of the Arctic to see how much if any of the 30mm of sea level went to?
and “the russians are coming”! . . . . “the russians are coming”! . . . .
I just want to thank all you corresponding humorists for lightening up a dismal day
in northern eastern Iowa. So far we have escaped the brunt of a late April snowstorm
currently besetting the state’s northern tier counties and much of Minnesota and Wisconsin. But a persistent rain and east wind (30-40 mph) has many locals nearly despondent. Even I am sad to say rain is forecast for the remainder of this week before Easter. The thought comes to mind “where is global warming when we need it most?”
Terrorists are being brought to justice in criminal courts these days…
Al Gore and the global warming alarmists such as left wing politicians, pseudo scientists, journalists, the Hollywood idiots, have been inflicting psychological terrorism upon a whole generation of children all over the world for the last 20 years.
These charlatans should be brought to justice as the perpetrators of the biggest scam in the history of this planet.
The social,financial and psychological damages that they caused are beyond comprehension.
No criminal organization in history has ever come even close to having such a dezastruous impact on so many people, for such a long time, and make so much money in the process.
They should not be permitted to get away with it.
Hundred of billions have been wasted on a fraud, social and economical policies have been altered based on a fraud….the moral authors of this fraud should be in jail for the rest of their lives and their fortune seized
Anthropogenic global warming is a total fraud, an international effort of power and money grabbing based on the marxist concept of “wealth redistribution”.
On April 28 1975 Time magazine had on its front cover the title THE BIG FREEZE!!, with an article, signed by climate scientists, concluding that the Earth is cooling to the point it will all be covered in ice and all living creatures will die of freezing.
The “scientists” even came up with a solution: collect all the ashes and residues generated by coal-burning power plants and spreat it over the North Pole, to capture the heat generated by the sun….
This could only have come from sick, perverted minds, but at the time it was viewed as a real option.
After a few years, when it obviously turned out that such a theory was nonsense, the so called climate scientists, in their quest for government grants, have invented a new fantasy, that of global warming……the world is warming due to us, human beings and we are all going to die unless we give up all of our liberties to one big world government which is going to regulate every single aspect of our lives, how many times to flush our toilets, what kind of cars to drive, where, for what reason and how far, how many children to have , what kind of food to eat, etc.
In 1992 Al Gore said that “the time for a debate is over, the science is settled”…..
This obviously is a lie for the time for a debate is never over and the science is far from being settled.
Science does not work as a democracy , meaning that in science, the majority does not rule as it does in a democracy.
If 1000 scientists have a debate and 999 of them agree on the subject, but only one of them disagree, it may very well turn out , as it has so many times in history, that the lone scientist is the only one that is right.
After 20 years of advancing a false theory based on fraudulent data, the “scientists” noticed that the planet is not warming, so they changed the name of their theory yet again from global warming to “Climate Change”, just in case, to have all possibilities covered.
Soon the whole thing will be unequivocally exposed for a premeditated fraud.
People who perpetrated this scam, will then be held responsible for the enormous psychological, social and financial damage that their actions have caused.
There must be parents out there whose children have suffered mental trauma because of this great scam.
All these parents should get together and get a pit bull of a lawyer to file a class action law suit in a civil court and take the global warming crooks to the cleaners.
Meanwhile, Al Gorleone has just bought a $ 11 million ocean-front mansion….
Fake scientists, journalist-fraudsters, crooked politicians, phony environmentalists, liars and charlatans all of them.
How in the world can anyone still believe these lies, is beyond comprehension.
In the last 50 years, based on “scientists findings” , governments allover the world have taken action, wasted billions and come up with new laws, in 23 different circumstances….
Time has proved them wrong in 21 out of 23 cases.
Not only they were wrong though, not only they were not able to come up with the right solution for these imaginary problems, but in most cases their action have been harmful for the society, for the environment, for the economy,etc.
I still believe that the only efficient way to stop this insanityl, is to bring law suits against these people, to bring them to court, expose them and make them pay for perpetrating such an enormous fraud.
In the UK we have forecasts of +23C at the moment which is some 1oC above the seasonal average so the Alarmists are having a field day.
