Global wrming Alert. Cold 1,000 year winter on its way.
« on: October 05, 2010, 05:08:00 PM »
Maybe they should start generating much more CO2 to try to counter act this expected cold spell.  I do know that So. Califoria is now running 10 to 20 degrees below normal, with 5 to 10 inches of snow expected above 8000 ft.  Not bad for the first part of October.

Forecasters say this winter could be the coldest Europe has seen in the last 1,000 years.

Thanks Matt.

Got any news of September's US temperature records for us? Bit more solid than a prediction and just as interesting...

Jeeze, Harold Tuttle, couldn't you have shrunk that one down from 2.1 megabytes?  (I get 693 kilobytes from the posted image, but 2.1 meg when I save it and check on the saved image properties.)

Silly Russians.  They need to get on board with the global climate agenda.

Hmmm, solar activity at an all time low, temps plummet.

Looking back through history, solar activity (or the lack thereof) seems to have pretty much dictated the weather and climate on Earth.

It is much more powerful to seek Truth for one's self.  Seeing and hearing that others seem to have found it can be a motivation.  With me, I was drawn because of much error and bad judgment on my part. Confronting one's own errors and bad judgment is a very life altering situation.  Confronting the errors and bad judgment of others is usually hypocrisy.

Oh, fun...last year we had below-average snowfall.  Guess it's going to make up for it this year.

Cool, hey Gunsmith, we are in the neutral zone.  No more/no less.  I don't like all that much snow as it is, so I was hoping for a little global warming.

It's funny. Apparently this is  prediction we can all get behind. Not those other predictions though.

You're right about the solar minimum, which is what makes the US September temperature record slighly more interesting, though overall largely irrelevant.

It's the only prediction (solar activity) that stands up to the scientific method.  Oh, and I forgot to mention the Chandler wobble, which once again seem to derive from solar activity, along with its obliquity and reverses in the earth magnetic field (which seems to be weakening, I guess we're using too much of it ;)  ;/ ).

Personally I take this prediction with a grain of salt like any other.  I think it is foolish to believe press release predictions outright.

That said, that chart said the Texas Gulf Coast would be below average in snowfall.  Since the average snowfall is ZERO snow, what does below average mean?

Aww, just remember Global Warming errr . . . I mean Climate Change . . . errr . . . that is, Global Climate Distruption causes unusually hot temperatures, unusually cold temperatures, unusually wet conditions, unusually dry conditions, unusually windy conditions, unusually calm conditions, abnormally high snowfall, abnormally low snow fall, and so forth and so on.

And the ONLY solution is higher taxes. (See, tax dollars placate Mother Gaia . . . but only if they're funneled through the carbon exchange processes by Gaia's priests, such as Algore.)

So pay up, infidel nonbelievers and deniers . . . do it "for the children."

since 2007 we have had above average snowfall in Iowa, so does this mean holy sh*t you are going to get a lot more snow this year?
