Exciting Day

I just got my 1998 4×4 back from the shop. It passed 200,000 miles and needed a new front end.

So I can drive down to DC tonight, pump out lots of life giving CO2, and hear Michael Mann and Katherine Hayhoe lie about skeptic funding, at the “Merchants of Doom” premier.

That is probably one of the few topics they know less about than climate.

No Net Change In Arctic Sea Ice Thickness Since 1940

Between 1893 and 1940, maximum Arctic ice thickness dropped from 365 cm to 218 cm.

Papers Past — Auckland Star — 14 December 1940 — WARMER ARCTIC

The US Navy reports that ice thickness between Spitzbergen and Greenland is currently two metres – the same as it was in 1940.

This is why government climate experts have been tampering with data to make the 1940’s blip disappear.

It would be good to remove at least part of the 1940s blip, but we are still left with “why the blip”.

Mike,
Can you delete any emails you may have had with Keith re AR4? Keith will do likewise… Can you also email Gene [Wahl] and get him to do the same? I don’t have his new email address. We will be getting Caspar [Ammann] to do likewise.
Cheers, Phil

30 Years Since EPA Said New York Could Sell Their Snow Plows

Science spoke 30 years ago. Permanent flooding in the southwest, and no snow in New York.

ScreenHunter_7889 Mar. 13 11.09

Published: November 2, 1983

The recent forecast by the Environmental Protection Agency that a general warming of the earth’s atmosphere will occur during the next decades has sent shivers all along the East Coast.

In Arizona they are wondering whether the recent floods will become a permanent feature of their climate. And in New York they are thinking of selling the city’s snowplows.

Science Speaks About Cherry Blossoms

Three years ago, experts made this brilliant forecast. DC cherry blossoms in February, and peak bloom in early March

So how did these brilliant forecasts from our top scientists turn out? The Potomac was frozen solid in early March.

According to the official stats, cherry blossoms are blooming later in DC than they used to. (2015 date based on National Park Service estimate.)

This year may be the latest on record.

But it wasn’t always like this. In 1946, the blossoms were already open by mid-March

Government climate experts are paid political hacks who don’t know understand the first thing about climate, or what controls it.

Basic Climate Science For Turnips

The atmosphere warmed from 1977 to 1998, and hasn’t warmed since.

ScreenHunter_1253 Mar. 13 08.22

This was caused by a spike in Pacific Ocean temperatures, which began in 1977 and ended in 1998.

ScreenHunter_1249 Mar. 13 08.17

During years with high Pacific Ocean temperatures, atmospheric temperature increases, and the opposite when the Pacific is cold.

This relationship would appear obvious to anyone with an IQ higher than a turnip, which apparently excludes most prominent government climate scientists.

Science Spoke Forty Years Ago!

In 1975, experts blamed cold winters and freak weather on excess ice, caused by a change in solar radiation.

Now experts say the exact opposite. They blame cold winters on a decline in ice which is not caused by solar radiation.

John Kerry likely didn’t hear science speaking in 1975, because he was busy cavorting with communist dictators around that time.

History Repeats Itself

Twenty years ago Bill Clinton made a terrible deal with North Korea to “halt their nuclear weapons program.” Republicans were unhappy, but failed to do anything about it – and North Korea got nuclear weapons.

Republicans Oppose Deal With Koreans – NYTimes.com

Fast forward twenty years. Obama is making a terrible deal with Iran which will lead to them having nuclear weapons. Republicans are unhappy about it, but will do nothing and Iran will end up with nuclear weapons.

Democrat traitors and eunuch Republicans. Nothing ever changes.
