Over the past 60 years, sea level in Sydney Harbor may have risen as much as an inch.  Or perhaps less.

With US major hurricanes at a record low, Swiss Re declares them to be the new normal.

NOAA data shows the exact opposite, US major hurricane strikes have plummeted to a record low.

Hurricane hiatus: Will the USA’s luck run out this year?

Insurance companies fund global warming fake news, because it gives them an excuse to jack up their insurance rates and make even more billions of dollars in profit.

The fake news New York Times has a very detailed map of new shipping routes through the Arctic.

As Arctic Ice Vanishes, New Shipping Routes Open – The New York Times

Never mind that there aren’t actually any ships on any of those routes.  They are all going through the Panama Canal.

But why would this story be any different than all the other lies the New York Times tells every day?

On this date in 1955, two thirds of the US was over 90 degrees, and there were 100 degree temperatures coast to coast.

August 2 afternoon temperatures have plummeted in the US over the last 90 years.

August 2, 1975 was the hottest day on record in Massachusetts (107 degrees) and Rhode Island (104 degrees.) There were 100 degree temperatures from Maryland to Maine.

In 2004, the Pentagon said the Northern Hemisphere will cool five degrees by 2020.

They also said the number of 90 degree days has increased, and the number of nights below freezing has decreased. Neither of those claims are true.

The frequency of 90 degree days in the US has plummeted.

The frequency of freezing nights peaked in 2013, and is oscillating cyclically.

Climate science seems to consist of a symmetrical set of misinformation about both the present and the past.  The only thing which is important in climate science is to be consistently wrong.

Glaciers shrunk thousands of feet in the late 19th century, as temperatures cooled towards NASA’s fake coldest years on record.

The famous glaciers of the Rhone have shrunk several thousand feet in the Inst 20 years; considerably more than 100 ft a year.  A number of the well-known glaciers are also shrinking at about the same rate, and the fact is established that these reminders of the great glacial period are certainly disappearing.

The percentage of USHCN stations reaching 95 degrees sometime during the year is plummeting. In 1931, ninety-three percent of stations made it up to ninety-five degrees sometime the year, but this year has only been 60 % – one of the lowest on record.

The frequency of 95 degree days is also plummeting.

And not surprisingly, the average summer maximum temperature is also plummeting.

I haven’t seen the owl there recently, but my favorite spot in the wetlands is full of chokecherries and wild apples now.
