NOAA has been wildly exaggerating the heat and the drought, but the corn crop doesn’t lie.

RFA President Bob Dinneen said the USDA crop production report confirmed that farmers are likely to harvest the eighth-largest corn crop on record this fall, despite enduring the worst drought conditions in more than 50 years.

In 1988, the Mississippi River almost dried up. Claims that this is the worst drought in 5o years were NOAA lies.

He said that it’s “truly remarkable” that even in the face of the worst drought in 50 years and the hottest July in recorded history, U.S. farmers were able to produce a corn crop of this size.

July was cooler than 1936 and 1901, before NOAA cheating. The truly remarkable thing is how dishonest the US government is.

During the summer of 2011, I posted this picture of the Greenland Summit Camp, and possibly overlaid the Wildebeest. Note the building in the background.

Now compare vs. today’s picture. I have been watching that building all year, and it now almost completely buried under ice and snow. You can barely see it on the left side.

NASA claims that the Greenland ice sheet recorded record melt this summer, because temperatures rose just barely above freezing for a couple of hours this summer. Their interest is propaganda, not science.

NOAA and their useful idiots have filling the airwaves with claims that 2012 is the hottest year in US history. They accomplish this by massive cheating. The raw maximum temperature data shows that 2012 (so far) has been the seventh warmest year – with 1934, 1921 and 1925 being the three hottest years.

January-August maximum temperatures.

After adjustment cheating, the graph looks like this.

They accomplished this by adding more than three degrees on to 2012 relative to one hundred years ago.

How do we get this fraudulent activity by the US government stopped?

Last winter brought record snow and cold to much of Europe, Asia and Alaska. But because it was warm in Washington D.C.  US climate experts determined that it was proof of global warming. The could see Russia from the window of their house.

This winter is forecast to be cold in the eastern US, and US climate scientists are already sandbagging by claiming that it will be due to low Arctic ice extent. This despite the fact that the coldest US winters occurred in the late 1970s – when Arctic ice was at its peak.

There seems to be no limit to how much nonsense US climate scientists are willing to produce to protect their jobs and funding.

Day 256 Antarctic ice is the highest ever for the date, and the eighth highest daily reading ever recorded. All seven higher readings occurred during the third week of September, 2007 – the week of the previous Arctic record minimum.

NSIDC does not mention the record Antarctic cold or ice on their web site, choosing inside to feature an article about global warming threatening penguins.

NSIDC does have a completely nonsensical discussion page explaining why Antarctic ice does not affect the climate.

Scientists monitor both Arctic and Antarctic sea ice, but Arctic sea ice is more significant to understanding global climate because much more Arctic ice remains through the summer months, reflecting sunlight and cooling the planet.

Nonsense. There is very little sunlight reaching the Arctic Ocean in September, and much more reaching Antarctic ice – because it is located at lower latitudes. Arctic ice took its big decline in mid-August, after the sun was already low in the sky.

Sea ice near the Antarctic Peninsula, south of the tip of South America, has recently experienced a significant decline. The rest of Antarctica has experienced a small increase in Antarctic sea ice.

Antarctic ice is nearing an all-time record high, and is above average everywhere.

Antarctica and the Arctic are reacting differently to climate change partly because of geographical differences. Antarctica is a continent surrounded by water, while the Arctic is an ocean surrounded by land. Wind and ocean currents around Antarctica isolate the continent from global weather patterns, keeping it cold. In contrast, the Arctic Ocean is intimately linked with the climate systems around it, making it more sensitive to changes in climate.

Antarctic and Arctic ice move opposite each other. NSIDC`s dissonance about this is astonishing.

Snow in North Iceland in early September is not unheard of but snowfall of two to three meters overnight at this time of year—when the sheep are still in highland pastures—is highly unusual.  Coupled with blackouts across the region, from Blönduós in the west to Þórshöfn in the east, due to icing of power lines and we’re looking at an unprecedented situation.

The temperature today at Vostok, Antarctica is -119F, which may be the coldest September surface temperature ever recorded on this planet.

The all time coldest temperature was -129F during July of 1983.
