Real Climate Science

One particular graphic that was popular on the Web on Tuesday showed the average snow cover during December, January and February. It showed that snow cover in the Northern Hemisphere was about 45.5 million square kilometers — at least 1 million square kilometers more than what it was in most of the 1990s.

“If you wanted to say that there’s no global warming, then, yeah, look at December, January and February,” said Kevin Trenberth, a distinguished senior scientist in the climate analysis section of the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colo. “But as soon as you look at March, April, May and June, you have a very different picture.”

What’s at play with the high winter snowfall, he said, is increased moisture in the air, which leads to bigger snowstorms. And that, says Trenberth, is not a result of colder air, but of warming ocean temperatures.

The high winter snow extent is due to cold air pushing the snow line further south. Trenberth is suggesting that snow in Florida is due to an increase in humidity? It doesn’t get much stupider than that.

These folks are complete whack-a-doodles

The real US temperature graph above (not to be confused with the fraudulent one generated by NCDC) shows pretty clearly that the US is on a 70 year warming and cooling cycle, and that there is no reason to believe global warming has affected the US in any way.

However, there is an interesting feature in the 1950s and 60s. Note that it was cooling, and there was very little year over year variability. That was the time when the USSA and USSR were blasting hundreds of nuclear weapons above ground. Imagine how much dust that put in the upper atmosphere.

Karen Carpenter died because she made a nonsensical association between something essential (food) and something harmful.

Barack Obama is working hard to create a nonsensical association between fossil fuels and something harmful. The end game is the same. Society can’t function without an adequate energy supply.

Mitt Romney responds by supporting Obama’s euthanasia of America.

Ten years ago, half of Maryland typically didn’t receive January snow. Now snow covers the entire state almost every January. This is the exact opposite of what experts predicted.

Experts say that global warming causes Arctic sea ice to shrink, and Antarctic sea ice to grow. Thanks to an insidious trick by Gaia, they balance out to zero over the past three years – and could fool a sane person into believing that the experts are complete full of crap.
