10-Day Precipitation Outlook for the Conterminous U.S.

NASA – Satellites See Unprecedented Greenland Ice Sheet Surface Melt

NASA recently told us that the entire Greenland ice sheet melted and turned red hot, right as a big snowstorm set in. The storm has cleared and we can plainly see that the ice indeed melted away at -19C.

In NASA speak, unprecedented means happens every 152 years right on schedule.

Last week, NOAA and Hansen told us that the heat in the eastern US could only be caused by a climate heating out of control. Two days later, record cold set in over the eastern US.

Global warming is here to stay

BY EUGENE ROBINSON

Excuse me, folks, but the weather is trying to tell us something. Listen carefully, and you can almost hear a parched, raspy voice whispering, “What part of ‘hottest month ever’ do you people not understand?”

According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, July was indeed the hottest month in the contiguous United States since record-keeping began more than a century ago. That distinction was previously held by July 1936, which came at the height of the Dust Bowl calamity that devastated the American heartland.

Eugene sounds like an hysterical teenage girl on the whacky weed. Does Eugene know that February 1936 was the coldest month in US history?

Temperatures have already plummeted to well below normal, Eugene. The only thing that is here to stay is your neurotic fear and cluelessness.

10-Day Temperature Outlook for the Conterminous U.S.

Someone suggested earlier that GHCN could eliminate a CRU heatwave by using a different baseline, and that I was a liar for not admitting this.

Perhaps the thousands of people who died in the 1936 heatwave could be brought back to life -simply by Hansen adjusting the temperature..

This site is getting flooded with idiots posting mindless FUD, who appear incapable of interpreting maps or graphs.

If you say the same stupid crap over and over again, you are going to spam.

Temperatures have dropped below freezing north of 80N for the winter

And most of the Arctic Basin is covered with ice, much of it 3-5 metres thick.

Summer is too short to produce an ice-free Arctic – without a radical change in climate.

Talk about an ice-free Arctic should be discussed in supermarket tabloids, not scientific publications.

The Guardian claimed today that the ice is getting thinner along the Canadian and Greenland coast, but as usual they have no idea what they are talking about.

There is a lot more 3+ metre thick ice than there was two years ago, when David Barber declared that all the multiyear ice was gone.

Hansen claims that heatwaves used to be much less extensive.

The percentage of the earth’s land surface covered by extreme heat in the summer has soared in recent decades, from less than 1 percent in the years before 1980 to as much as 13 percent in recent years, according to a new scientific paper.

He has absolutely no idea what he is talking about. Historical US heatwaves correlate well with heatwaves at other parts of the planet, and covered much more than one percent of the land surface . Nothing has changed, except inside his troubled mind.
