Met Office climate forecasts remind me of NASCAR racing

the Met Office’s decadal forecast predicts renewed warming after 2010 with about half of the years to 2015 likely to be warmer globally than the current warmest year on record.

Since 1850, New York has been hit by seven major (category 3,4,5) hurricanes. The most recent was Hurricane Gloria in 1985.

Politicians hope to end major hurricanes in New York, by pretending that they can reduce CO2 levels back to the same level they were when all the major hurricanes occurred.

Early arrival of spring is a sure sign of global warming.

Sandy has become a deeply important religious icon for the climate faithful, and it is very important that they not be exposed to information about the 1821 hurricane. Avert your eyes now!

In 1821, stunned colonial New Yorkers recorded sea levels rising as fast as 13 feet in a single hour at the Battery. The East River and Hudson Rivers merged over Lower Manhattan all the way to Canal Street. According to Coch, the fact that the 1821 storm struck at low tide “is the only thing that saved the city.”

If the faithful were to learn that New York has had worse storms in the past, it could lead to them falling away – and might even make them quit acting like complete idiots.

That is why Huffington Post had to delete my comment when I posted it last week. Telling the truth is firmly against Huffington Post’s TOU.

We have about six inches of global warming this morning in northern Colorado.

“If you leave us at 450ppm for long enough it will probably melt all the ice – that’s a sea rise of 75 metres. What we have found is that the target we have all been aiming for is a disaster – a guaranteed disaster,” Hansen told the Guardian.

Remember when they blamed western pine beetles on warm winter temperatures?

Temperatures out here in the west have been frigid this winter, which is completely consistent with expert predictions of 10 degrees warming.

If carbon emissions increase, the average temperature at Park City will be 10.4 degrees warmer by 2100, and there likely will be no snowpack, according to the study. Skiing at Aspen, with an average temperature 8.6 degrees higher than now, will be marginal.

Shortly after becoming snow-free, Mt. Snowden will be covered in glaciers. CO2 works in strange and mysterious ways.
