Ten years ago Europe had a heatwave, which the Met Office declared to be the “new normal.” After a decade of barbecue summers prediction failures they have a new new normal.
Met Office meeting: UK’s spell of awful summers is set to continue | UK news | The Guardian
As usual, the meteorological community trying to hype isolated events as the end of the world.
Aided and abetted by the BBC.
In their report yesterday, the “evidence” was a strawberry farmer (who didn’t look old enough to have been farming for very long), who’s crop wasn’t ripening fast enough. Yet strangely there have been plenty of UK grown strawberries in the shops.
Also an ice cream manufacture who wasn’t selling enough ice cream – but it’s only the middle of June!
Maybe both of them shouldn’t have believed the MO predictions of hotter, drier summers.
I wonder how long it took the BBC researchers to find those examples and how many opposite examples they rejected first.
The problem is that these people are starting to believe their own propaganda and can’t tell reality from fantasy any more.
Exactly QV. In a recent 3 part BBC series called “Orbit – Earth’s extraordinary journey”, showing all the forces affecting our climate during the Eart’s orbit around the Sun, at the end of episode 2, the used an Inuit, barely older than 50 that knows nothing of the science, saying that the ice has been getting thinner over the last 20 years, as an excuse to say that “the cause is undeniably Man”.
BBC producers almost wrecked what was otherwise a brilliant show of facts to spew some crap just to toe the gubberment line. Pathetic.
brolly and sunblock

So when we get a dry year we’ll be back to the BBQ summer predictions? They should sell the super computer and any amounts reclaimed returned to the taxpayer
The Met Office is doing damage limitation.
Its predictions of thermageddon have come to naught, so it is busy inventing diversions to keep people off the scent.
They are currently labeling weather events which are completely within the normal range as “extreme”, or predicting some coming cataclysm, like a bit of a wet summer in Merrie Olde England.
D’oh!
Even when the Met Office continued to fails Roger Harrabin hung on.
Result: Washout with bonuses for staff.
I also think that by saying they don’t know the answer (to a non-existent question), but more research is required, they are saying they need more funding to pay for research (into a non-existent problem).
Isn’t all of this about ensuring job security for “climate scientists” for at least another decade or so?
Take a look at this guys publications and ask yourself why do they still ‘know nothing’?

UKIP alone, among the established political parties in Britain, believes in Climate Realism, The Climate Changes – get used to it ! Lord Christopher Monckton, of UKIP is a tireless campaigner for truth about the science and economics of the so called “global warming” movement. See his many videos and statements about the issue at the UKIP Scotland Blog on WordPress. See the many links to stories, and Climate Realist Websites at that website.
