Severe Tropical Cyclone Tracy
21 – 25 December 1974

Tropical Cyclone Tracy is arguably the most significant tropical cyclone in Australia’s history accounting for 65 lives, the destruction of most of Darwin and profoundly affecting the Australian perspective to the tropical cyclone threat.

This was not the first time Darwin had been severely damaged by a cyclone: it was badly mauled in both January 1897 and March 1937. But as a result of Tracy , much more attention was given to building codes and other social aspects of disaster planning. Darwin was rebuilt and now thrives as one of our most important gateways to Asia.

In 1974, scientists blamed the extreme weather on global cooling.

In Africa, drought continues for the sixth consecutive year, adding terribly to the toll of famine victims. During 1972 record rains in parts of the U.S., Pakistan and Japan caused some of the worst flooding in centuries. In Canada’s wheat belt, a particularly chilly and rainy spring has delayed planting and may well bring a disappointingly small harvest. Rainy Britain, on the other hand, has suffered from uncharacteristic dry spells the past few springs. A series of unusually cold winters has gripped the American Far West, while New England and northern Europe have recently experienced the mildest winters within anyone’s recollection.

As they review the bizarre and unpredictable weather pattern of the past several years, a growing number of scientists are beginning to suspect that many seemingly contradictory meteorological fluctuations are actually part of a global climatic upheaval. However widely the weather varies from place to place and time to time, when meteorologists take an average of temperatures around the globe they find that the atmosphere has been growing gradually cooler for the past three decades. The trend shows no indication of reversing. Climatological Cassandras are becoming increasingly apprehensive, for the weather aberrations they are studying may be the harbinger of another ice age.

It was so cold, it was criminal.

A 38-year-old homeless man got himself arrested for trespassing at a Home Depot in Pompano Beach on Monday so he could spend a few nights in a warm jail, according to the Broward Sheriff’s arrest report.

NOAA got their winter forecast exactly backwards.

This is what they predicted in October for the winter :

This is what happened – the inverse of the forecast.

No doubt they can tell us what the temperature will be in 100 years.

A tiny land area along the central Front Range of Colorado has become diseased with mass murderers, lying politicians, drugged out left wing nutjobs, and other psychopaths. Unfortunately they make up the majority of the population of the state.

Democratic Gov. John Hickenlooper has said he would sign

“I’m not in any way an anti-gun person,” the governor said.

A Maryland lawmaker has introduced legislation after a 7-year-old boy in his district was suspended for shaping a pastry into what his teacher thought looked like a gun.

The Star Democrat reports that Republican Sen. J.B. Jennings introduced a bill that would prohibit schools from suspending students for seemingly harmless childish acts, such as playing games with fingers pointed like guns or chewing food into the shape of a firearm.

“These kids can’t comprehend what they are doing or the ramifications of their actions,” Jennings told the paper. “These suspensions are going on their permanent records and could have lasting effects on their educations.”

Josh Welch, a second-grader at Park Elementary School in Baltimore, was suspended last month after his teacher accused him of chewing his pastry into the shape of a gun

Yes, you should be concerned that the White House is working feverishly to destroy the Bill of Rights. It was created to protect us from the federal government.

The Bill of Rights is the collective name for the first ten amendments to the United States Constitution. These limitations serve to protect the natural rights of liberty and property. They guarantee a number of personal freedoms, limit the government’s power in judicial and other proceedings, and reserve some powers to the states and the public.

The amendments were introduced by James Madison to the 1st United States Congress as a series of legislative articles. They were adopted by the House of Representatives on August 21, 1789, formally proposed by joint resolution of Congress on September 25, 1789, and came into effect as Constitutional Amendments on December 15, 1791, through the process of ratification by three-fourths of the States.

The Bill of Rights plays a key role in American law and government, and remains a vital symbol of the freedoms and culture of the nation.

Obama is not upholding his oath of office. He views the Bill Of Rights (and the American people) as being impediments to his agenda.

I do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.

Last year, DC had a warm and pleasant March – which was cited by NOAA as being the most extreme fossil fuel driven March ever.

Fortunately the CO2 bubble over DC appears to have dissipated.

Next time you are playing golf in lovely 60F weather, remember that NOAA considers those conditions to be extreme – and doubly extreme if the nighttime temperatures are also pleasant. Seek shelter immediately.

After Sandy came through and no respectable scientist was willing to blame it on global warming, Trenberth jumped in and said that global warming had raised sea levels in New York.

This is complete nonsense. Tide gauges show a constant rate of post glacial subsidence since 1850. Sea level there has nothing to do with “man made CO2”
