Global warming?

[bobgnote]

Um no.

Not really.

It's a cult religion and will fade into obscurity inside the century at longest.

No the religion is with the deniers who have to yell conspiracy when they see all the international science communities supporting it or coincidence when temperature records keep getting broken

Were More Than 3,000 Heat Records Actually Set in June? | PBS NewsHour

And it's still not as warm as the 1930's, or the storms as violent as the 1900's or 1940's or 1860's. Right now, in WI, we've had one of the warmest summers since... wait for it... 1956. Not even up to 1930's dustbowl levels here yet.

Will it be hotter in the future? Sure thing.

Will it be cooler? Absolutely.

One thing's for sure though... it will not be man's fault.

Will Pig Shitz have a job, oinking, in the near future?

Did we see temperatures set modern instrument records, in the past year? Over 34,000 new high-temp records were set, June 2011-June 2012. 2284 daily US high-temp records fell, in June, 2012. The ratio of broken highs to broken lows is moving, toward 20-1, by 2050, and toward 50-1, by 2100.

All ten of the hottest years in the instrument record happened, 1998-2010. 2012 will be another very hot year.

But a lot of ice has been melting! The solar intensity is not very great. Solar cycle 24 is the least intense, since the one, which peaked, in 1928. But temperatures sure are rising, and this rise is ACCELERATING.

When perennial ice melts, this cools the atmosphere and oceans! But all that is really noticeable is the way the Atlantic trade currents are faltering, which is leading to enhanced sea level rise, from Cape Hatteras to Boston. Temperatures are RISING.

Pope Benedict explains skeptics are somehow related, to atheists. So a lot of skeptics ignore their several failures, and guys like Pig Shitz rant, how global warming science is "religion," when Pig Shitz can't find a science link, to save his curly tail.

Punkotardy won't go get a scientific study, either. Eat shit, flat-earth queers! You will become extinct, and your bath-houses will CLOSE, forever.

State of the Climate | National Overview | March 2012

The cold season, which is defined as October 2011 through March 2012 and an important period for national heating needs, was the second warmest on record for the contiguous U.S. with a nationally-averaged temperature 3.8 degrees F above average. Only the cold season of 1999-2000 was warmer. Twenty-one states across the Midwest and Northeast, areas of the country with high seasonal heating demands, were record warm for the six-month period.

United States Broke 2,284 Daily Temperature Records in June | Geekosystem

During the month of June, the United States broke 2,284 daily high temperature records. It has now been confirmed that it has, indeed, been hot.

And that’s not all. On top of the 2,284 broken records, 998 daily high records were tied. Added together, the United States broke or tied around 110 daily high temperature records every single day of the month. According to NPR , in the first five days of July the U.S. broke another 942 records and tied 273 more. It is officially obscenely hot.

NPR also notes that, for the year so far, they’ve set 23,282 daily high temperature records whilst during the same period last year only 13,582 were broken. My rusty-but-accurate math puts this year at having a 71.4 percent increase in records broken. The maps created by the National Climatic Data Center when given the right parameters will spit out all of this and more.

--------------------

And that is with a lot of ice melting, during a cool solar cycle.

I'm still waiting, for one of you queers, to get a science link up, Punko and Piggie.

This reminds me of an article Physics Today had back in their March issue (written back in late Jan or Feb., before this year's weather had really lept into the extreme weather region very much):

"Predicting and managing extreme weather events"
Jane Lubchenco and Thomas R. Karl

March 2012, page 31

Earth’s climate is warming, and destructive weather is growing more prevalent. Coping with the changes will require collaborative science, forward-thinking policy, and an informed public.

The number of events that produced on the order of $1 billion or more in damages in 2011 is the largest since tracking of that statistic began in 1980, even after damages are adjusted for inflation. NOAA estimates that there were at least 14 such events in 2011. (The previous record was nine, set in 2008; an average year would see three or four.) Collectively, the 14 events resulted in approximately $55 billion in damage.2 Furthermore, many events produced less than $1 billion in damage, but are not included in the tally, although they collectively represent additional significant financial losses. Why did we see such expensive damage last year? There are likely a number of contributing factors, including upward trends in population and infrastructure, migration to vulnerable areas, and climate change. The contribution of each of these factors remains an important research issue.

Of course, the economic losses are far from the full picture. Weather- and climate-related disasters in the US claimed more than 1000 lives in 2011, almost double the yearly average. For the victims, each of the events was a huge tragedy. For our country, as for all countries, the events are an unprecedented challenge to the safety of our citizens, the bottom line for our businesses, and the smooth functioning of our society. Timely, accurate, and reliable weather warnings and forecasts are essential to our nation’s ability to plan for, respond to, recover from, and prosper in the aftermath of disaster. Short-term forecasts are critical, but so are forecasts of slowly evolving events like prolonged droughts, snow- and ice-melt flooding, and heat waves.

We’ve emphasized how unusual 2011 was, but was it an anomaly or part of a broader change? Should we expect more of the same in the future? Globally, according to the insurance company Munich Re, the number of extreme meteorological and hydrological events, defined in terms of economic and human impacts, has more than doubled over the past 20 years.3

The physical cost of damage in 2011 was due to nothing else except chance.. The heart of 4 mid-size cities were hit by tornadoes. So unless you want to assert that G.W. has produced SMARTER tornadoes -- I'll take a raincheck on the "analysis"...

No need to resort to the paranoid supernatural fantasies that seem to make up the foundations of most politically conservative thought processes, all that is required is the understanding that more energy retained in the planet's environment means that the distribution of this energy throughout the environment is going to result in either more storm systems or stronger storm systems (possibly even both). Either way, you increase the odds of damage and the degree of damage when such odds are actualized. Simple physics and statistics.

With regard to tornadoes, the storms will be bigger and more numerous, and tornado alley will expand, from California, to POLAND, where destructive storms just happened.

Evidently it made a lot of denialists change (overnight) their tune about the reliability of tree-ring proxy study results,...though if they had actually read and understood the study, I wonder if their enthusiasm would be as great?

Well today I just found out that this is the 2nd hottest july on record for WI. With the remaining time and cool front coming in, it looks like it won't beat 1921 and it barely beat the third place July from the 1930's... can't remember the year.

Plus this now badly needed rain is hitting the state lessening the drought and possibly allowing farmers to salvage SOME of the corn crops.

We'll see.

I hope you are correct, times are rough enough without having to compound the problems with food shortages and price gouging.

 

[bobgnote]

The problem is we will have TOO MUCH water and heat, where GHGs are too concentrated. This will lead, to more natural disasters, which have been observed, to increase, in number and intensity.

Hence Trakar's RE observations.

The practical problem, with humanity is we have TOO MANY retards. For instance, Punkotardy somehow manages to completely ignore scientific issues, which is common among wingpunk fucktards, but also, he manages to severally notice how I use commas, before prepositions, by labeling them "spelling incorrect."

I wonder how many commas he will try to correct, with "sic?"

We will soon see, if retards are going to smarten up, enough to avoid extinction. You tardies won't be as numerous, soon enough. NO WAY can all of you make it, through what is to come.
