1997 Shock News : El Nino Now Permanent

Dr Russ Schnell, a scientist doing atmospheric research at Mauna Loa Observatory, 11,000 feet up on Hawaii. “It appears that we have a very good case for suggesting that the El Ninos are going to become more frequent, and they’re going to become more intense and in a few years, or a decade or so, we’ll go into a permanent El Nino.”

“So instead of having cool water periods for a year or two, we’ll have El Nino upon El Nino, and that will become the norm. And you’ll have an El Nino, that instead of lasting 18 months, lasts 18 years,” he said.

    Good that as a scientist you are not held accountable for your mistakes. They have that in common with journalists.

    Yeah, exactly the right people to trust.

    Well, Dr Russ Schnell just marked himself out as too quick off the mark. [German joke for DirkH]
