The sky is falling!  The sky is falling!

I now predict the Arctic will be ice-free during the morning of Dec. 6, 2017 – at a temperature of -29.4C.

Prior to 1960, August 1 was typically a very hot day in the US with about half of the US over 90 degrees. Since 1960, the percentage of the US over 90 degrees on August 1 has dropped to about 40%.

On August 1, 1955 every state was over 90 degrees, and twenty states recorded temperatures over 100 degrees. (AZ CA CO IA ID KS MN MO MT ND NE NJ NV NY OK SD TX UT VA WY)

The New York Times says extremely hot weather was unheard of in the 1950’s, but as with everything else – they are lying.

The usual band of climate criminals are touting a record early Northwest Passage voyage, due to global warming and melting ice. They seem to be confusing “steel hulled icebreaker with lights, radio, satellite, GPS and Internet” and “melting ice.”

Amundsen saw the Northwest Passage open in 1903, and could have completed the trip in one year – had that been the purpose of his mission.

TimesMachine: March 9, 1907 

Amundsen had a small wooden boat, with no satellite, GPS, Internet or communications, and limited light.

According to NASA, that was the tenth coldest year on record.

But, as always, this story gets much worse. The route which Amundsen took in 1903, is completely blocked with ice this year.

July 25 was the last day when Amundsen’s route was visible through the clouds. The red represents ice. The route is blocked to anything other than an ice-breaker.

Just more fraud from the team.

Prior to 1960, July 31 temperatures were much hotter in the US. On July 31, 1917 almost half of the US was over 95 degrees, but since 1960 the US has averaged about one station out of five over 95F.

On this date in 1934, McPherson Kansas was 116 degrees. McPherson was 43 degrees cooler today, with a maximum temperature of 73 degrees.

On this date 100 years ago, almost the entire eastern half of the US was over 90 degrees, and there were 100 degree temperatures coast to coast.

The Pacific Northwest is having one of their coldest years on record, and temperatures have been declining there for a century.

But they are having some hot weather for a few days, so they are the new canary in the global warming coal mine.

Bobby: Which way we goin’, this way or that way?
Lewis: I think downstream would be a good idea.

Toto has never seen cool weather like this in August before. He is more used to the Dust Bowl and tornadoes.

Six years ago, Aggie joke professor Andrew Dessler said Texas would be hot and dry for the rest of the century, and bragged that Tech Tech clown Katharine Hayhoe and himself predicted it.

How did that forecast turn out?  Texas is having some of their wettest years on record.
