The End Of Snow

Twenty-one years after experts announced the end of snow, we are having our coldest February/March in Cheyenne since 1965.

The graph above makes it appear that there may have been station or equipment changes in 1966. The number of warm days and the number of cold nights both changed sharply in 1966.

National Climate Disinformation

Katharine Hayhoe was lead author of “Our Changing Climate” in the last National Climate Assessment.

Our Changing Climate | Fourth National Climate Assessment

“a finding confirmed by 3000-year long reconstructions of southwestern fire history …. Between 1970 and 2003, warmer and drier conditions increased burned area in western U.S. mid-elevation conifer forests by 650%”

Southwest | National Climate Assessment

So out of a 3,000 year study, why did they choose to only talk about the years 1970 to 2003?

They hid all of the critical information prior to 1970 which wrecked their story.

Anti-Intellectualism At The New York Times

The New York Times says it is anti-intellectual to believe that CO2 helps plants grow, or that the climate is controlled by the sun.

How Senator Ron Johnson Helps Erode Confidence in Government – The New York Times

Apparently they believe it is anti-intellectual to do any actual research.

Exposure of plants to lower levels of CO2 even for a short period can reduce rate of photosynthesis and plant growth. Generally, doubling ambient CO2 level (i.e. 700 to 800 parts per million) can make a significant and visible difference in plant yield.

Greenhouse Carbon Dioxide Supplementation | Oklahoma State University

“Sunspot cycles, which occur at intervals of 22 years and over longer periods of several hundreds of years, correlate strongly with periods of hot and cold, wet and moist weather on Earth.”

– @nytimes February 22, 1977

TimesMachine: February 22, 1977 – NYTimes.com

Dr. Hurd C. Willett, Professor of Meteorology at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, suggests the answer. Dr. Willett, one of our staff affiliates this year, has shown us how cyclic changes in the climate closely parallel the cyclic changes in sunspot activity—the manifestations of powerful electrical energy discharges from the sun.* We now feel confident that our investigations here back up the solar-climate theory of weather cycles. Sunspots have been diligently recorded for well over 200 years. We find that glacier fluctuations over these past two centuries show a tantalizing correlation, taking into account the glaciers’ flow lag, with sun storms and temperature trends.

  

The National Geographic Archive | February 1967 | page 1

LONDON: Sunspots, rather than “greenhouse” gases from the burning of fossil fuels, may be responsible for the rise in global temperatures in the past 200 years, it was claimed on Wednesday.

Astronomers at Armagh Observatory in Northern Ireland have studied meteorological records going back to 1795, which point to a strong link between air temperatures on Earth and solar activity.

It is not the number of sunspots which affects the Earth’s climate, according to Dr Butler, but the length of the sunspot cycle. This averages about 11 years, but periods when the cycle becomes shorter correspond to greater solar activity and greater energy output.

Dr Butler pointed out that during the past 20 years, the solar cycle has been abnormally short (about 9.6 years) and the Earth’s weather abnormally warm. On the other hand, a period in the late 17th century known as “The Little Ice Age” when the Thames froze in winter, correspond ed with an abnormally long solar cycle, when sunspots virtually stopped for about 60 years.

The Stable Climate Of 1939

On January 14, 1939 it was 114F (46C) at Sydney, NSW. Massive fires burned most of the forest from Melbourne to Canberra, and decimated the Koala population. Residents were traumatized for years by the sounds of the Koalas screaming in the forest.

The Leadbeater’s Possum was presumed to be extinct in the early part of the 20th century. It requires young Mountain Ash forest to feed. But the massive fires of January 13, 1939 cleared out the old growth forest and was replaced with the young forest which the possums need. By 1990, the possum’s numbers may have been at a record high, but decades of fire suppression put them at risk again.

LA Times Erasing Their History

The history of anti-Japanese sentiment in California goes back much further than what the LA Times wants people to remember.

In 1923, California passed laws banning Japanese people from owning property, saying Japanese could not be assimilated.

In 1917, President Woodrow Wilson confirmed a German plot to bring japan to war against the US.

The Japanese Embassy said under no circumstances would they team up with Germany against the US.

Protecting Birds From Non-Existent Sea Level Rise

Ten years ago today, federal officials wanted to protect California birds from three to four feet of sea level rise over the next century.
