Iowa has been cooling at 1.5 degrees per century, but NOAA fixed that by cooling the past at a slightly faster rate. Through the magic of data tampering, they have turned a strong cooling trend into a slight warming trend.

Walt Meier used to claim that positive Antarctic ice anomalies were smaller than negative Arctic ice anomalies, and only occurred in the Southern winter.
Massive fail on both counts.

When glaciers recede (as they have been doing for most of the past 20,000 years) alarmists blame it on global warming.
They also blame advancing glaciers on global warming
Iceberg B09B has cut off Cape Denison from the Southern Ocean and filled Commonwealth Bay with fast ice, leaving penguins short of food and their numbers are falling
with climate warming, the rate at which icebergs are calving off the ice edge is increasing so the number of times in which icebergs will cut off access to colonies is going to occur more frequently.”
GISS reports high precision Antarctic temperatures starting in 1904, without the benefit of a single data point.

In 1958, the head US weather researcher said that Antarctic temperatures had risen five degrees in first half of the 20th century.
GISS shows zero warming in Antarctica during that period of five degree warming.
As is often the case, GISS temperatures bear no resemblance to reality.
The Guardian censored my comment, but through the magic of Twitter and Climate Depot – it made it there anyway.
