Even for a near record-breaking year like 2010 the broader context is more important than a single year. “Certainly, it is interesting that 2010 was so warm despite the presence of a La Niña and a remarkably inactive sun
That was very short sighted of him, because now he doesn’t have any cover for 2011. I guess they can always adjust the data upwards.
He forgot El Nino.
Having it both ways….
…..They used lag to describe El Nino
but no lag to explain La Nina
Is there a limit on how much man made warming Homer creates? He is already .04C degrees/decade higher than UAH and HadCRUT when compared over the entire UAH record. This is already 29% more warming per decade over the 30+ years of UAH record. Can Homer get away with the 50% decadal warming adjustment needed to reach the minimum .2C degrees projected as a minimum warming by his model?
No Problem! They just need to reduce past temperatures a bit more to make this year appear warmer in comparison. It is all in using the “Proper” Method!
