Real Climate Science

Michael Mann believes that a 100 degree reading in Alabama confirms his junk science, but on this date eighty years ago thirty-five states were over 90 degrees and seventeen were over 100F. Every Midwest state was over 100F, and schools were closed.

September 15, 1927 was almost as hot. Most locations in Alabama were over 100 degrees.

Very hot September 15th’s used to be quite common, but the last one occurred in 1980.

Central England average daily maximum temperatures averaged 69.5F this summer, almost five degrees cooler than 1976. Almost two-thirds of days were cooler this summer than the corresponding day in 1976. There was one hot day on July 25, which was a degree warmer than the hottest day of 1976.

Experts have determined that one hot day on July 25 was the “new normal.”

Michael Mann doesn’t know the difference between weather and climate, and when called out on his ignorance uses a cherry-picked trend map starting during the 1970s ice age scare, while ignoring the National Climate Assessment.

During the heatwave of 1925, the Southeastern US (LA, MS, AL, FL, GA, SC, NC, TN, AR) was over 100 degrees every day from August 6 to September 25 – peaking at 112 degrees in Tennessee on September 7.

Alabama has recorded temperatures over 100 degrees on September 14 eight times – in 1908, 1910, 1911, 1915, 1921, 1925, 1927 and 1954. Today’s reading was the first in the last 65 years.

Let me tell you how it will be
There’s one for you, nineteen for me
‘Cause I’m the taxman, yeah, I’m the taxman

Should five per cent appear too small
Be thankful I don’t take it all
‘Cause I’m the taxman, yeah, I’m the taxman

If you drive a car, I’ll tax the street

If you try to sit, I’ll tax your seat

If you get too cold I’ll tax the heat

If you take a walk, I’ll tax your feet

Imagine you lived in a very safe upper-middle class neighborhood in America, with almost no crime. There is always electricity, gas, light, heat, communications and food available. You have Internet access no matter where you are or what you are doing. Your local gas station always has low cost fuel available. You can drive anywhere you want knowing that there will be fuel available for your car 24 hours a day. You can hop on a plane and go anywhere in the world. Your stores are packed with food and there is a restaurant on every corner. Criminals are afraid to enter your neighborhood, because they know that many homeowners have the ability to defend themselves.

Now imagine that you are willing to throw it all away because CNN told you there is a climate crisis, and that evil NRA members are going to come shoot you with black assault rifles.

Climate alarmists believe the ice in the Arctic is gone, and keep getting stuck in it.

The last clear day at Svalbard was August 25, and much of the island was surrounded by ice.

Early this summer, winds pushed the ice from the Alaska side to the Svalbard Side.

The Alaska coast is ice-free almost every summer, but climate alarmists never miss an opportunity to misinform the public. And of course no mention of the unusually large amount of ice around Svalbard.

In 1971, during the ice age scare, ice was also hundreds of km away from the Alaska coast.

From 1900 to 1970, the Northeast US was in drought most of the time, and was plagued with large forest fires. But since 1970, the Northeast has been wet and has had very little drought.

The Northeast used to get terrible heatwaves, but they are much less common now – with recent years among the least hot on record.

1896 Heatwave

The 1901 heatwave killed thousands of people. The Northeast US was over 90 degrees every day except two from June 22 to July 31 that year, peaking at 107 degrees on July 2 at York, PA.

The 1911 heatwave killed thousands of people in New England and across the country.

May, 1911 brought precedent 100 degree temperatures to Maine and Quebec. May 22, 1911 brought the hottest May temperatures ever recorded in Maine, Vermont and New Hampshire.

Climate alarmism has no basis in science or history. The head of the World Meteorological Organization implies that climate alarmists are terrorists, while he simultaneously panders to the same mentality which created the climate terrorism movement.

“While climate skepticism has become less of an issue, now we are being challenged from the other side. Climate experts have been attacked by these people and they claim that we should be much more radical. They are doomsters and extremists; they make threats,” Taalas said.

“It is not going to be the end of the world. The world is just becoming more challenging. In parts of the globe, living conditions are becoming worse, but people have survived in harsh conditions.”

Climatologists like NASA’s James Hansen created this mess with their data tampering and lies.  They seem to want to have it both ways. There is no indication that the climate is becoming more severe, and every reason to believe that a warmer climate is better for humans.
