The summer of 2003 was very hot in Europe, and climate experts declared it the “new normal.”
And now …..
Disrupting the Borg is expensive and time consuming!

Who names these charlatans as ‘experts’? I can claim to be the King of Siam, but does noone fact check anymore?
With over 40% of the year gone already the UKMO HadCET temperature is currently sitting 1.00°C below the 1961-1990 mean. The year 1963 came in 1.00°C below the mean; you have to go back to 1892 to find a year colder than 1963 (at -1.30°C). Something to watch if the NH summer turns out to be cooler than normal.
In other news, Phil Jones has a new paper out in GRL subtitled ‘we don’t need no stinkin’ data’:

Nice find!
Now that’s an interesting line or two from the abstract –
Hey, lets all run-off and infer our data indirectly because all that temperature measurement error stuff plays hell with the theory.
Someone brush these people upside the head with a Macadamia. They are nuts. There have been many times that the temperature has passed the 70 degree mark where I live, at many different pressures. Was it cold when Camille, Opal and Ivan passed over, or warm?
What is the relation of barometric pressure to temperature? What the heck does sea surface temperature and ice extent have to do with the temperature in Kansas?
Besides temperature and grant money, what is up with all the reanalysis projects?
Pigs to the trough.
And 1816 was ‘the year without summer’ in part because of the enormous Tambora eruption in 1815.
Just hope that Katla or Hecla don’t blow their top.

Hey Moh! I have a terrible memory, can you give me another heads up, say in November 2018?
Thanks!
Cycle 23 had many large flares, which directly affect the climate specially in periods of low cloudiness and weak magnetic field on Earth.
On page 9 of the following presentation by Dr. Guhathakurta, from NASA (2011),
http://www.oosa.unvienna.org/pdf/pres/stsc2011/tech-14.pdf
we find a list of the 10 greatest solar flares since 1976,
Strongest X-ray Flares since 1976
1.November 4, 2003 X28+
2.April 2, 2001 X20.0
3.August 16, 1989 X20.0
4.October 28, 2003 X17.2
5.September 7, 2005 X17
6.March 6, 1989 X15.0
7.July 11, 1978 X15.0
8.April 15, 2001 X14.4
9.April 24, 1984 X13.0
10.October 19, 1989 X13.0
and the following list comes from the Cliver-Svalgaard paper (http://www.leif.org/research/1859%20Storm%20-%20Extreme%20Space%20Weather.pdf)
04 Nov. 2003 X28 Newport 63 115
28 Feb. 1942 – Eskdalemuir 63 112
28 Oct. 2003 >X17 Tamanrasset 36 111
01 Sep. 1859 – Greenwich 44 110
15 Jun. 1991 >X12 Hyderabad 22 95
06 Jun. 1991 >X12 Guam 20 90
15 Apr. 2001 >X15 Tamanrasset 34 85
where the last number is the “amplitude” (nT). The paper has more lists and comparisons with the Carrington Event of 1859.
The majority of the flares are from cycle C23 (5) followed by cycle C22 (3, all in 1989) and 2 in C21… 10 years later, the greatest flare so far in cycle C24 is an X6.9 in August 9, 2011 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_flare).
No wonder the climate was hotter before and it’s cooling now.
I don’t know of a Meteo channel but Meteo France, the national weather and climate service is real and they are, like the germans, rabid AGW people. However, this is already the worst spring here in SW France in living memory, my heating is still on, the swimming pool is around 15°C when it is normally in the 20°s, my melons are over 3 weeks late into the ground, the Haricots had to be pre-germinated and I bought english potatos because I lost all of last year’s french crop due to a cold spring. The english pots are doing very well.
Winter was long but not abnormally cold unlike 2011/2.
So anecdotal but real.

That’s what I have been saying.
