Projected Climate Change
As in other areas, the amount of warming in the Northeast will be highly dependent on global emissions of heat-trapping gases. If emissions continue to increase (as in the A2 scenario), warming of 4.5ºF to 10ºF is projected by the 2080s; if global emissions were reduced substantially (as in the B1 scenario), projected warming ranges from about 3ºF to 6ºF by the 2080s.
Under both emissions scenarios, the frequency, intensity, and duration of heat waves is expected to increase, with larger increases under higher emissions (Ch. 2: Our Changing Climate). Much of the southern portion of the region, including the majority of Maryland and Delaware, and southwestern West Virginia and New Jersey, are projected by mid-century to experience many more days per year above 90°F compared to the end of last century under continued increases in emissions (Figure 16.2, A2 scenario). This will affect the region’s vulnerable populations, infrastructure, agriculture, and ecosystems
There isn’t one shred of evidence to support any of this. Summer maximum temperatures in the Northeast have been flat for 60 years, and were much higher from the 1930’s to the 1950’s.
And the frequency and areal coverage of 100 degree weather was much higher prior to 50 years ago.
The White House is simply making up propaganda in support of their political agenda.

Cue surprise … not!
There’s an A2 scenario and a B1 scenario, but no A1. This was done because the A1 scenario would not alarm the voters, who might confuse it with the steak sauce.
Boulder vegans get mighty alarmed by A1.
A2 scenario says up to 10 F warmer by 2080. That’s 6 C which is 3 doublings which means we have to double CO2 3 times, 400 –> 800 –> 1600 –> 3200. They actually think we are going to raise CO2 to 3200 by 2080?
The Obama administration is dumber than a giant box of anencephalic rocks.
I just read the link. Scroll down and they show a picture a pic of a guy sitting on the subway sweating:

It’s fraud! Judging by the yellow and orange seats he’s sitting on the F train, and I know the F train always has good AC compared to, say, the 1, 2 or 3 train, or the 7 to Flushing, which never has AC. It’s total nonsense. If they are claiming that global warming will mean the AC will stop working on the F train, I call bullshit.
I’m trying to get something started..
I hereby request that all posters now use the acronym CAGNW rather than CAGW
CAGNW = Catastrophic Anthropogenic Global NOT Warming.
I’m hoping it will really annoy the alarmista !! 🙂
You mean NCAGNW?
When we are freezing our asses off in 60 years we can burn all thes research papers for warmth.
Reblogged this on Centinel2012 and commented:
With the religion of “Climate Change (most progressive are atheists and need something to believe in) no facts are required. All that matters is their cause!
As usual, the Obama administration has it wrong on the climate.
Those who are part of the ‘warm-is-bad’ crowd take their coffees warm, they take showers in warm water, and go on vacations to warm locales, but how then is warm bad?
It is the cold that is bad and that is the world climate we have coming in global cooling, officially beginning in mid-December 2017.
“… if global emissions were reduced substantially (as in the B1 scenario)….compared to the end of last century under continued increases in emissions (Figure 16.2, A2 scenario)….”
It is useful to know who exactly was the IPCC Lead Author who wrote those Scenarios. The Climategate e-mails tell us that lead author is Ged Davis VP of Shell oil.

A2 scenario is the Divided World Scenario.
B1 is Agenda 21
Seems Obama has the USA directly on target following closely Shell Oil’s plan for the USA.

Sometimes I feel like a sheeple herded in the direction the elite want no matter what I do.
