It has been obvious since about April that government agencies had been instructed to make 2014 the hottest year ever. But this headline in the Washington Post summed up the fraud in spectacular fashion.
The record snow extent this autumn was due to record intrusions of cold air to low latitudes in North America and Asia. Obviously not compatible with record heat.
But it gets must worse. Last winter also had well above average snow cover.
Antarctica had record sea ice cover this year.
The amount of sea ice on Earth is above normal.
Arctic sea ice extent is at a 10 year high
The Greenland ice sheet has gained a record amount of ice this Autumn.
Satellite temperatures are far more accurate than surface temperatures, and they show that temperatures are not warming, and are nowhere near a record.
The surface temperature record which the claims are based on has huge geographical gaps of no data, shown in gray. They have an error of at least half a degree, yet make claims of record heat at 0.01 degrees. Junk science and fraud at its absolute worst.
It is not a coincidence that these wildly fake claims of record heat came out just as Obama and the UN are doing their big push to take control of the world’s energy supply through “climate” regulations.
And even with all their endless data tampering, GISS is still below zero emissions scenario C.
These claims of record heat by NASA and NCDC are not even remotely credible. They are in defiance of all corroborating science, and are complete utter nonsense.
Reblogged this on Climatism.
The “recreated” dataset is the ultimate cherry pick. The “warming” is tailored to show the “anomaly” plotted against the post-dust bowl era cold trough period from 1951 to 1980 (which included the stretch in the 1970s when I remember as a kid that lake Michigan routinely froze up as far as the eye could see from the shores of Chicago).
Pre1959 temps were cooled and post 1979 temps were biased higher via “adjustments,” not to mention the under-accounted-for UHI bias due to the voluminous amount of concrete-asphalt-brick-steel-air condioning added since 1980 or the precipitous drop in particulate matter emissions following the implementation of the 1974 Clean Air Act.
But always think that they do this for the children, their children of course.
Queen Malia Ann Obama I
or
Queen Chelsea Victoria Clinton I
Why choose either/or? Imagine the new history book, “America Has Two Mommies”.
That should be “America Has Two Interracial Mommies“
As I understand it, GISS currently uses no satellite based data for their LOTI product, only input from surface stations. If this is the case, how are the ocean temperatures determined? Argo? Ships?
Wet finger.
Yes, but be careful, you don’t know where that finger has been…
😉
Ass I suspected.
Steve, I wish you wouldn’t say “normal” when you mean average: it implies that anything other than average is abnormal.
I read the WaPo article because Drudge sucked me in. I saw the headline and thought it was one of your articles! Of course it is just an excuse-a-thon for AGW and how warming causes snow. But I suspect several gave WaPo a click count from Drudge as it did not look like their work (the article however is pure BS).
CAGW only causes snow when it snows. When it doesn’t snow, CAGW causes warming.
The perfect theory! It explains all!
Reblogged this on Appomattox Republicans and commented:
Really? When will American wake up to this Government Scam?
But the Polar Bears!
They’re OK, Hudson Bay nearly all frozen:

Even the WSJ publishing tripe that Antarctica is melting. The article is from ‘scientists’ who complain that the ice is not thick or good enough, even though they admit that ‘Eastern Ant.’ is growing….but the waters surrounding it are really, really warming up…..no end to the stupid.
The data is relentless but this will not be an easy fight. There has been 1) long term, 2) repetitive and almost 3) unchallenged propaganda for more than 2 decades hitting people with a certain message. It is tough to beat those 3 together. As Yuri Bezmenov pointed out in the early 80s, once a population has been successfully “demoralized”, facts and logic cease to have any effect. Their ability to think objectively is gone. The counter message has to go out in a similar fashion.
DavidS,
I see your point – it is a bit demoralizing to see the public so utterly duped. I’m putting my hope in the younger generation and a few of them surviving their brainwashing to notice that as they grow up, it isn’t getting a lot hotter, and the climate certainly isn’t getting “worse” whatever that means. I’m hoping younger people will eventually figure it out from perhaps even stumbling onto what we are saying here today. It’s going to take time. In the mean time we just have to keep speaking the truth. It’s about all we can do.
The coverage of the surface datasets is even worse than GISS show.
NOAA’s map shows a truer picture
