Real Climate Science

Please make sure that New England is not under inflated tonight.

After each of their spectacular forecast fails, climate experts keep trying to change the rules. But the whole thing started with Hansen’s 1984 paper where he explained how feedbacks were going to destroy the planet.

Hansen predicted that loss of sea ice, particularly in the Southern Hemisphere, was going to lead to 8C warming in the Weddell Sea

Snow /ice feedback.

Ground albedo decrease  also provides a positive feedback. The ground  albedo change (upper panel of Fig. 7) is largely  due to reduced sea ice. Shielding of the ground  by clouds and the atmosphere (middle panel of  Fig. 7) makes this feedback several times smaller  than it would be in the absence of the  atmosphere. However, it is a significant positive  feedback and is at least as large in the Southern  Hemisphere as in the Northern Hemisphere. The  geographic pattern of the temperature increase  (Fig. 4) and the coincidence of warming maxima  with reduced sea ice confirm that the sea ice  effect is a substantial positive feedback.

So how did that turn out? A complete disaster. The Weddell Sea has seen peak sea ice gain and the area has cooled.

Hansen predicted peak warming and sea ice loss in an area which has cooled and seen peak sea ice gain. These people are complete hacks and have absolutely no idea what they are doing.

Every patriotic citizen must rebel at the idea that a government for the people and  by the people shall not be permitted to publish an honest report of data gathered by its own official observers for the  use of all the people.

Hawaiians used to toss virgins into volcanoes in order to prevent eruptions.

Hundreds of years later, climate scientists still believe that humans must make sacrifices to prevent volcanic eruptions..

By the 1950’s, scientists were convinced that continents don’t move, and that there was life on Mars.

Scientists are very smart, and you simply aren’t qualified to disagree with them.

The New York Times says the North Pole hasn’t had open water for 50 million years

Apparently 1926 was a very long time ago, because in 1926 the same newspaper reported open water at the pole.

I’m sad to report that the groundskeeper at the Greenland Country Club is simply not getting his job done. The greens and clubhouse are buried in deep snow at -60F.

Compare with greener times two years ago when he was still doing his job.

Greenland golfing just isn’t what it used to be, before global warming kicked in.

Testing TOBS by station removal is a little tricky because morning stations tend to be in warmer parts of the country, so diverging regional trends affect the result. But one state had a 50/50 mix of morning/afternoon stations in July 1936.

There are 26 HCN stations in Missouri and 13 of them took readings either at morning or night during July, 1936. These 13 stations would tend to be biased cold in the 1930’s according to TOBS theory.

I compared the cold stations vs. all stations, and there is essentially no difference. TOBS is 99% BS.

Based largely on their phony TOBS adjustment, NCDC turns a cooling trend in Missouri into a warming trend.

Here is the list of morning/night stations from July, 1936
