Climate Journalist Speak

Early in life I had noticed that no event is ever correctly reported in a newspaper.

– George Orwell

“If you don’t read the newspaper, you’re uninformed. If you read the newspaper, you’re misinformed.”

Chicago’s record for coldest temperature ever could fall as polar vortex has city ‘in the crosshairs’ – Chicago Tribune

A couple of quotes in the article caught my attention.

the coldest winter high ever recorded in Chicago

Why winter? Does he think they have had summer afternoons which were colder?

For younger Chicagoans, the burst of Arctic air set to overtake the city this week could be one of the coldest days of their lives

It would be the coldest for everyone, not one of the coldest for younger Chicagoans.  How can this week be one of the coldest days?

How does this kind of garbage make it past the editor? It should be no surprise that 97% of newspaper readers are misinformed about climate. Journalists can’t verbalize even the most basic information correctly.

I guess the armadillos will be moving south again.

Overwhelming Evidence Of Collusion

NASA prominently features this graph of “global temperature” showing very close agreement between different data sets by different government agencies since 1880.

NASA: Climate Change and Global Warming

I am going to show you the evidence now why the only way this could have happened is via collusion between the agencies. There is not enough data available to generate a coherent global long-term temperature record, much less have close agreement by independent agencies.

In 1978, the New York Times reported there was too little temperature data from the Southern Hemisphere to draw any reliable conclusions.

International Team of Specialists Finds No End in Sight to 30?Year Cooling Trend in Northern Hemisphere

New York Times, January 5, 1978

The report, prepared by German, Japanese and American specialists, appears in the Dec. 15 issue of Nature, the British journal. The findings indicate that from 1950 to 1975 the cooling, per decade, of most climate indexes in the Northern Hemisphere was from 0.1 to 0.2 degrees Celsius, roughly 0.2 to 0.4 degrees Fahrenheit.

Data from the Southern Hemisphere, particularly south of latitude 30 south, are so meager that reliable conclusions are not possible, the report says. The 30th parallel of south latitude passes through South Africa, Chile and southern Australia. The cooling trend seems to?extend at least part way into the Southern Hemisphere but there have been indications of warming at high southern latitudes.

https://www.nytimes.com/1978/01/05/archives/international-team-of-specialists-finds-no-end-in-sight-to-30year.html

In 1981, NASA’s James Hansen reported the same thing.  There is little historical data from the Southern Hemisphere and oceans.

Climate Impact of Increasing Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide | Science

In this 2009 Climategate E-mail, Phil Jones from CRU said there was very little ship data in large areas of the Southern Hemisphere. and that the historical data in those regions was “mostly made up.”

di2.nu/foia/foia2011/mail/2729.txt

Maps from NOAA show that there was very little quality thermometer data outside of the US in the year 1900.

A Critical Review of Global Surface Temperature Data Products by Ross McKitrick :: SSRN

Same story in 1920. Very little quality data outside of the US, Western Europe, Japan and parts of Australia.

There are still very large areas of missing data, represented by gray in the NOAA map below.

However, the lack of data doesn’t stop NOAA from declaring record heat in places with no thermometer data.

Fake Data – The Basis Of Climate Science | The Deplorable Climate Science Blog

The US has the only high quality long term temperature set covering a large area in the world, and the US temperature record is massively tampered with – to turn 90 years of cooling into warming.

NOAA US Data Tampering Update | The Deplorable Climate Science Blog

No legitimate scientist would alter data like this.  If they have theories about possible issues with the data, the correct way to handle it is to put error bars on the graph – not alter the data and present it as if it is the actual thermometer data. That is fraud, not science.  Between 1999 and 2016, NASA completely altered the shape of the US temperature graph to turn seventy years of cooling into warming.

NASA 1999   NASA 2016

As far as global temperatures go, NASA has massively altered their own surface temperature record over the past 20 years, and have doubled pre-2000 warming.  How can four different independent agencies come up with four very similar graphs, when NASA doesn’t even agree with themselves from 20 years ago?

Spreadsheet     Data

NASA surface temperature graphs have completely erased the post-1940 cooling seen in 1974 NCAR graphs.

NCAR 1974      NASA 2018

This removal of the “1940’s blip” was done intentionally.  Climate scientists openly discussed their desire to get rid of the 1940s warmth.

di2.nu/foia/1254108338.txt

But historical records show that the time around the 1940 was very warm – with glaciers rapidly melting in Greenland, North America and Europe.

I’ve worked with global temperature data, and know that you can produce any shaped global temperature graph you want by picking the right set of stations. There are grossly inadequate amounts of both historical and current data to produce a meaningful long term temperature graph for the earth.  Much of the data is fake –  by their own admission.

The best temperature data set (by far) is the US data, which has been altered by NOAA and NASA over the past 20 years to turn 90 years of cooling in to warming. Global temperatures have also been massively altered over the past 45 years. And climate scientists colluded to remove the 1940s blip.

There is no conceivable way this graph could have been produced without lots of collusion between the four “independent” agencies.

Vital Signs Of Climate Fraud At NASA

NASA Climate says Antarctica is rapidly losing ice, but an increase in snowfall during the 20th century slowed the loss down some.

NASA: Climate Change and Global Warming

NASA also says Antarctica is rapidly gaining ice (more than 82 billion tons per year) and that it is due to an increase in snowfall which started 10,000 years ago.

Why would anyone believe anything NASA says about climate?  Their climate group are propagandists, not scientists.

Collapse Of The Polar Melting Scam

Arctic sea ice volume last spring was the highest of the past decade, and this year is well ahead of last year.

Spreadsheet  Data

There are only about 90 days a year when ice can melt near the pole, and summer temperatures near the pole have been consistently below normal for the past 20 years.

Ocean and Ice Services | Danmarks Meteorologiske Institut

The really bad news for climate alarmists is that Arctic winter temperatures have also turned cold.

Ocean and Ice Services | Danmarks Meteorologiske Institut

Meanwhile, in Antarctica it is the hottest month of the year – and temperatures are below freezing across almost the entire continent. How is ice supposed to melt below freezing?

All-Time Record Cold At Dixon, Illinois?

The forecast maximum temperature at Dixon, Illinois for Wednesday is -18F.

Dixon, IL 10-Day Weather Forecast – The Weather Channel | Weather.com

If the forecast is accurate, that would be the coldest afternoon on record at Dixon since 1895. The previous record of -14 F was set on Christmas Day, 1983 and January 19, 1994.

The two previous records were aided by volcanic dust blocking sunlight from the eruptions of El Chichón in 1982 and Mt. Pinatubo in 1991.  After those eruptions, temperatures spiked in the stratosphere, and cooled in the troposphere.  Note that all five of the previous coldest days were set during the last 35 years.

So where is all this cold Arctic air coming from?  Climate experts say Arctic winters are super hot and melting with crazy temperature rises. 

The North Pole is an insane 36 degrees warmer than normal as winter descends – The Washington Post

In the real world outside the ivory towers of academia, journalism and politics, the Arctic is very cold, and the cold air is spilling to lower latitudes.

Coldest Day On Record At Aurora, Illinois?

Wednesday’s forecast maximum of -13F at Aurora, Illinois would be the coldest afternoon on record there.

Aurora, IL 10-Day Forecast | Weather Underground

Aurora has had forty-three days since 1895 which didn’t make it above 0F, and four days which never made it above -10F.  The coldest afternoon on record was -12F on Christmas Eve 1983.

According to Ventusky, Aurora will only make it up to -20F on Wednesday.

Ventusky – Wind, Rain and Temperature Maps

Climate experts want to save the people of Aurora, Illinois from imaginary overheating in 100 years, by cutting off their fuel supply and freezing them to death now.

Where Did She Get Those Crazy Ideas From?

Scientists are pushing back on AOC’s claim that we only have 12 years left to save the planet.

Axios on Twitter: “Climate scientists are pushing back”

Where did she get these crazy ideas from? She got it from them.

The world’s leading climate scientists have warned there is only a dozen years for global warming to be kept to a maximum of 1.5C, beyond which even half a degree will significantly worsen the risks of drought, floods, extreme heat and poverty for hundreds of millions of people.

We have 12 years to limit climate change catastrophe, warns UN | Environment | The Guardian

AOC was actually being quite conservative. The World Economic Forum only gave us until the year 2020.

The UN said global warming killed us in the year 2000.

U.N. Predicts Disaster if Global Warming Not Checked

The world’s leading climate scientist, James Hansen, gave us until the year 2012 to save the planet.

President Obama ‘has four years to save Earth’ | Environment | The Guardian

And the CIA said global cooling killed us decades ago. So kudos to AOC for being more conservative than the scientists in her forecasts of apocalypse.
