DESTRUCTIVE HURRICANE AT CONSTANTINOPLE.

In a letter dated Constantinople, Jun. 7, we find the following :—” On the 3rd of this month we had here one of those dreadful hurricanes which are only to be found in the annals of the West Indies. At half-past ten at night a heavy shower of rain fell, which was rapidly succeeded by a snow storm ; at about midnight it blew a thorough hurricane, which lasted till day- break. Never in the memory of man had such a storm burst over Constantinople. Trees were unrooted, houses unroofed, chimneys hurled to the ground. Several minarets have lost their kullafs, or extinguishers, and the steeple of the Galata Tower was blown clean off. The old bridge was broken to pieces, and, floating about the port, caused considerable damage to the shipping. The losses have been calculated at upwards of ten millions of piasters. Among other losses an Eng- lish brig, name unknown, was lost at the mouth of the Black Sea.”

Parts of Puget Sound could rise 2 feet
Scientists offer projections on higher sea level

January 17, 2008

A study released Thursday by scientists with the University of Washington and state Department of Ecology could help answer that question.

In the worst case — which assumes high levels of greenhouse gas emissions and faster melting of ice sheets — Puget Sound is inundated with nearly 2 feet of water by midcentury, more than 4 feet by 2100.

Parts of Puget Sound could rise 2 feet – seattlepi.com

Experts indeed tell us that greenhouse gases are rising faster than expected and ice sheets are also melting faster than expected (at -50C.)

Sea level in the region has been completely steady since 1975, Tamino’s period of modern global warming. Once again, scientists are trying to pretend that they know something scary, when in fact there is not one shred of evidence to support their claims.

Missing Arctic ice caused the northeast US to be very warm last year, and very cold this year.

CO2 and Arctic ice are very versatile in their effects on the climate system. Some years they even  cause normal temperatures.

Temperatures on the Greenland ice sheet have dropped to 101 degrees F below the freezing point. This is exactly what we expect from an overheated atmosphere, and is a sure sign that the ice sheets are going to melt and drown us all.

There can be little doubt that NASA will make a big deal about the record cold, and that it will be widely covered by the press.

Probable Cause Are scientists too cautious to help us stop climate change?

BY KERRY EMANUEL | NOVEMBER 9, 2012

The world has suffered an extraordinary string of weather disasters over the past decade, ranging from crippling droughts and floods, to severe tornado and hail outbreaks, to highly destructive hurricanes. Insurance industry statistics reflect a substantial increase in damages from these events, but in only a few cases can scientists confidently attribute them to climate change. (For example, increased incidence of droughts, floods, and high category hurricanes may be partly pinned on climate change.)

But we know next to nothing about the relationship between climate change and other weather phenomena, such as tornadoes, and we have yet to establish a link to hybrid storms like Sandy. For all but a few of these phenomena, the scientifically correct conclusion is that we can’t rule out the possibility that they were purely manifestations of natural variability. But from a public policy perspective, it would be prudent to assume that climate change might be behind some of these changes, given that it is manifestly changing the environment in which these events develop.

Probable Cause – By Kerry Emanuel | Foreign Policy

There is no evidence that the weather has become more extreme over the last century. Hurricane strikes have declined in the US.

Emanuel’s entire thesis is based on flawed, lazy assumptions. He has no idea what he is talking about.

The Pentagon was warned on Friday to stand guard against “climate surprises” which could throw off its efforts to secure America’s future.

An expert report, prepared for the intelligence community by the National Academy of Sciences, warns that the security establishment is going to have start planning for natural disasters, sea-level rise, drought,epidemics and the other consequences of climate change.
