More record temps

[daveman]

A very long trend in the weather equals climate. Remember the record La Nina we just experianced? Shouldn't we still be getting cold weather?

You guys used to say a trend had to be a decade or more.

Now you're down to days.

I have peer reviewed this post and find it 100% accurate

The science is settled, then. The debate is over.

51% Blame Extreme Weather on Long-Term Planetary Trends, 19% Blame Human Activity

Friday, May 13, 2011

U.S. meteorologists say the deadly storms tearing up the South are not a result of climate change. None the less, the extreme weather has rekindled the global warming debate in Washington, D.C.

But a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 51% of American Adults think the recent severe weather is primarily caused by long-term planetary trends. Only 19% blame the extreme weather on human activity which many climate change activists view as the cause of global warming. Twelve percent (12%) say there's some other cause for the bad weather, and 19% more are not sure. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

51% Blame Extreme Weather on Long-Term Planetary Trends, 19% Blame Human Activity - Rasmussen Reports™





Keep posting up those temperature readings s0ns...........we're all sure it having an enormous impact on public opinion!!!


Go..........go............go..............

AGW may increase global temperatures by 1 degree in the last century, but it still gets cold in the winter.

Yes, but the residence time of water vapor is only 9 days. By the time it gets cold all the extra water vapor will have disappeared. A conundrum for you isn't it.

Kind of a stupid ass, are you, Walleyes. You think that with the modern weather maps all over the weather news now, that people don't see the relitively warm air coming up from the Gulf and colliding with the cold air from the north, creating record snowfalls for the last couple of winters? And then there is the little matter of the wet cool moisture that blows in from the West Coast and cools over the Sierras, and Rockies.

You deniers surely do present a dumb image to the general public.

Severe Weather Ravaging US Could Worsen...

Experts warn epic weather ravaging US could worsen
Wed, Jun 29, 2011 - Epic floods, massive wildfires, drought and the deadliest tornado season in 60 years are ravaging the United States, with scientists warning that climate change will bring even more extreme weather.

The human and economic toll over just the past few months has been staggering: hundreds of people have died, and thousands of homes and millions of acres have been lost at a cost estimated at more than $20 billion. And the United States has not even entered peak hurricane season. "This spring was one of the most extreme springs that we've seen in the last century since we've had good records," said Deke Arndt, chief of climate monitoring for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).

While it's not possible to tie a specific weather event or pattern to climate change, Arndt said this spring's extreme weather is in line with what is forecast for the future. "In general, but not everywhere, it is expected that the wetter places will get wetter and the drier places will tend to see more prolonged dry periods," he told AFP. "We are seeing an increase in the amount (of rain and snow) that comes at once, and the ramifications are that it's a lot more water to deal with at a time, so you see things like flooding."

More than 6.8 million acres in the central United States have been swamped after record spring rainfall overwhelmed rivers already swollen from the melting of a heavy winter snow pack. Some levees burst under the pressure as the mighty Mississippi River swelled to more than three miles (nearly five kilometers) in width. Others were intentionally breached in order to ease pressure and protect cities downstream. The latest flooding along the Missouri River has forced mass evacuations and threatened to inundate two nuclear power plants in Nebraska.

Meanwhile, the southern United States is dealing with one of the most extreme droughts since the dust bowl of the 1930s, and the dry conditions have led to massive and uncontrollable wildfires. More than 4.7 million acres have been burned in some 32,000 separate fires so far this year, which is more than twice the annual average over the past decade, according to the National Interagency Fire Center. Texas, Arizona and New Mexico have lost the most land, and one fire even spread to the grounds of the top US nuclear research lab on Monday. As with the plants in Nebraska, officials said the nuclear material stored inside is safe and that no contaminants have been released. While most people have been able to escape the slow-moving floodwaters and wildfires unharmed, the spring's violent storms have unleashed scenes of apocalyptic destruction.

Yes imagine that the worst storms in 60 years....the important factoid is of course the fact that there was worse weather in the past. I am amazed that people can read drivel like this and think it important or newsworthy.

everytime I see on of your posts it makes me wonder about how 'statistics' get twisted around to support a certain point of view. here is a graph generated with apparently govt issued data-

and that is only going back to 1950. I have seen the same type of graph that goes back to 1900 and it shows the majority of records being set in the first half of last century.

so who should we believe? hamweather or NOAA? lol

while looking around for the 20th century USA record highs, I made this graph using the NOAA site-

you can plot your own graphs, just visit this site. NCDC:

Yep. The "scientists" (or as olfraud refers to them "real scientists") keep telling us we are breaking all of these heat records, yet we have record snow everywhere and we're still 15 degrees below average. And there is a chance of snow up here on the Fourth! A small chance but a chance.

Hey West.........out here in New York, the high this July 4th weekend is going to be about 87 or 88. We've had two.........count 'em........TWO over 90 degree days this year. Nobody's been going to the ocean because the water is freezing cold!!!

Is this a "break" in the warming the k00ks are always talking about??

 

[skookerasbil]

El Nino seen as playing major role in increase seen in 2010 temperatures.........

From ScienceDaily.com...............

2010 one of two warmest years on record; El Niño-Southern Oscillation and other climate patterns play major role


More bad news for the k00ks................
