The coldest temperature ever recorded in the Northern Hemisphere is -90F.

San Francisco rainfall

Contrary to the latest spew from the climate science community, rain falls when it condenses in cold air. It is usually impossible to create precipitation when the air is too warm. That is why we have droughts.

150 years of global warming (0.7C)  going down the drain.

Global warming made him do it. He never lived in Arizona. He never heard of Sarah Palin.

He did it because he was mentally ill.

One of the remarkable fairy tales to have come from shape shifting climate science in the past year, is that rain is associated with anomalously warm air.

As you can see below, the relationship is exactly the opposite. Climate scientists used to know that (dry) deserts are hot, before they had their IPCC frontal lobotomies.

Temperatures in the US have been running far below normal. Cold air holds less water than warm air.

So if you say “snow cover in 49 states is due to more moisture in the air from global warming” – then you have absolutely no idea WTF you are talking about. The air is not warm, and Sea Surface Temperatures are also running well below normal.

The widespread snow cover is due to cold, not the imaginary warmth inside your computer model.

Guardian has determined that the Arizona shooter was an anti-abortion climate skeptic.

Why can’t you skeptics just roll over and let a bunch of drugged out, insane Bolsheviks run your lives?

Last month a geologist tried to blame the 13km deep Haiti earthquake on global warming

At the American Geophysical Union meeting late last month, University of Miami geologist Shimon Wdowinski argued that the devastating earthquake a year ago may have been caused by a combination of deforestation and hurricanes (H/T Treehugger). Climate change is spurring more, stronger hurricanes, which are fueled by warm ocean waters.

By contrast, an actual educated geologist explains what really happened.

Simon Day, an expert in tsunamis and landslides with the Aon Benfield Hazard Research Centre, based at University College London, said analysis shows most of the ruptures that caused the 7.0 magnitude quake on January 12 last year did not take place as was initially thought on the main fault – the Enriquillo-Plantain Garden (EPG) Fault – which runs east-west, just to the south of the capital Port-au-Prince. While the temblor may have begun here, it consisted largely of a sequence of ruptures on other buried faults either side of the EPG Fault.

That suggests that the 2010 earthquake relieved little of the stress that has built up on that key fault since two major earthquakes in 1751 and 1770, which demolished much of Port-au-Prince. Consequently, further large quakes are a “very real possibility”, Day said.

“We can’t say there is going to be an imminent earthquake, but the point is that this is a seismically active region, and there is a hint in the historical data that quake activity in Haiti is clustered,” he told AlertNet.

“What is very clear from the aftershocks and land deformation (of last year’s earthquake) is that…the segment to the south (of Port-au-Prince) that moved in 1770 still hasn’t moved… It has been accumulating (land) deformation for 240 years, and that is a cause for considerable concern.”

21 December 2010

Professor Slingo, who is in charge of Britain’s biggest research team investigating climate change, insisted that global warming was a reality despite the bitterly cold temperatures and heavy snowfalls that have brought much of the country to a standstill.

“This is not a global event; it is very much confined to the UK and Western Europe and if you look over at Greenland, for example, you see that it’s exceptionally warm there,”

Joe D’Aleo sent this over. Florida had its coldest December on record.

Cancun suffered its coldest temperature ever recorded in December, but apparently none of the 15,000 climate experts in attendance were educated enough to pick up on the fact that Cancun is not in Western Europe.
