So yesterday we had second coldest july day in 36 years here in middle of norway"trondheim" barely breaching 10c with a max 10.5c.. Meanwhile today we did not even reach 10c with temps only reaching a max of 9.8c! And at higher altitude regions at west coast we have now forecasts for snowfall in areas where this is not normal at all during this time of year.. It is funny how so called "weather" is just continuing. I really fear how bad this will get over the coming decades with solar activity dropping even further. Edit: meanwhile in december 2000 we had several days over 10c with one day reaching 13c and a average of 10c. Surely normal that we have several days in a row in the HOTTEST month of the year where temps are lower than a mild winter day. Even in january-feb we usually get at least a few days with 8-12c max temps. It is always "weather" when it is cold, and "climate" when it is hot.

I hope there is a flaw in Professor Zharkova's model.
Otherwise the result will be in the "not nice" category.
Apparently, the correlation covers a period from 1976 to 2008.
Bearing in mind the observational inaccuracies certainly present, a 97% correlation would be the bull's eye.

From a media angle, this is the 2nd article in 2 weeks promoting the idea of global cooling published widespread in the press....The other being the metoffice 'cooling will only pause warming' article. Unprecedented?

Our typhoon season began today, I guess, since we went into typhoon condition for the first time today for the first time this year. We've had a very cool spring and summer here in Busan, South Korea, and I don't think I've broken a sweat in July until today. I GREATLY underestimated how much effect we were going to get from this typhoon in Busan today. I have been watching on the news and the eye is tracking much closer to China than to Korea, and it was headed up the Yellow Sea, so I didn't think we were going to get much from it over here in Busan. The tide has been very high, the waves are everything I saw during typhoon season last year, and it has been absolutely raining in sheets since about noon. When the cloud tufts are low enough that I can see them between my window (on the 53rd floor) and the Condo towers next to us, the wind is pretty impressive ... either this thing was much bigger than I understood, or else the track changed a bit and it came farther east than it was projected to come. We have another one coming behind this one, and the next one is currently tracking to go across the southern Japanese islands and hit Busan directly, but it's probably a couple of days before it hits. Earlier today, I went out for a run in the rain only thinking about this rain being part of the rainy season. I wasn't thinking about us getting much from the typhoon. Even though it was raining, the temperature was probably the warmest I've seen it in July - it's been borderline chilly along the seashore. I'm guessing that the warmth was brought in by the typhoon. I should say that my run started out with just a gentle drizzle, but it was quite a bit more than that by the time I got back home. I love storms. I love 'em big and powerful (I grew up in Oklahoma, folks. ). From that perspective, there's a lot to enjoy about what I'm seeing out my window this afternoon.

I remember the rain you are talking about. Went through a near miss on Guam. The huge waves and rain that came in sheets and didn't stop. Like a blizzard!!

For those of you interested Tuesday on Coast to Coast AM Professor Emeritus of Geology at Western Washington University, Don J. Easterbrook, will discuss the causes of climate change and glacial fluctuations, the 500-year record of temperature changes using data from the Greenland ice core, the effect of CO2 on climate change, and the geologic history of climate change. If you can't find a station it can be heard via the internet. www.coasttocoastam.com/show/2015/07/14Thx Code...that's good to know, Dr Easterbrook is a legend and worth listening to.
