^^^ Thats kinda scary - you (greedily) sell to the highest bidder (50% over, who wouldn't) then find that the house you wanted to buy has also sold to the highest bidder, waaay beyond your mortgage capability. Now you're screwed....

Another 6cm of rain for the Midlands? Enough already, my fields are waterlogged and puddling already. Shame there's no ski season to talk of this year, this weather could last down a great snow base.

Governments are ruled by social media now - when Italy got mashed and the forecast was for 500,000 dead, the twitteratti demanded action and isolation and the global governments, knowing no better, reacted to that. Now they cant back out without admitting they were wrong in the first place - so they have to keep the narrative going, irrespective of the collateral damage to the economy and the lives lost to cancer, heart disease etc... that aren't being treated by an NHS (in the UK) that is basically sitting idling right now. All that matters is no-one dies of COVID. The arse covering that will go on during any subsequent inquiry will be on an epic scale, and the scientists will be set-up as the fall-guys.

2700 tonnes of Ammonium Nitrate, next to an off-loading firework delivery, that caught fire and ignited the nitrate - that was the second explosion and the reddish smoke tower. Beruit is screwed, their port, which brings in over 75% of their food, has been destroyed. 80 dead, 4000 injured, hospitals knocked out, hundreds missing. The scenes of the aftermath are just complete devastation. The airport, 10 miles away (?!) was also damaged.

And we've had the warmest winter ever, so the whole thing doesn't make any sense.

Does this become a cat amongst the pigeons moment, or will it just get brushed aside as an anomaly?
Is there any science that could support a possible 2 month delay between human CO2 emissions reducing in Asia and then Europe and then America and the detection event at Moana Loa?

For the last month industry has shut down to the extent that gas in some states is 95c a gallon and there is a shortage of space to store oil. Satellite sensors are showing huge drops in smog anhaust from industry. However, looking at the reports from Mauna Loa (until they are 'adjusted' I suppose) the level of CO2 in the atmosphere seems to be continuing its monotonic rise. If this continues for another month it could start to embarrass the climate 'scientists' - if it is possible to embarrass them at all that is... It isn't. Well, thats informative

Did the UK version of this abject stupidity and dereliction of duty ever get round to finishing their reviews or did corona put an end to it? Ah - last meeting postponed - lets hope forever. www.climateassembly.uk/news/

"To Fight The Coronavirus, The World Returns To Fossil Fuels
Entire nations have put their lives on lockdown as we try to “socially distance” ourselves to prevent the spread of COVID-19. In these unprecedented times, the world has returned to basic truths that manifest themselves when the price of ideology is too high. One of those involves fossil fuels. In an instant, sometimes without realizing it, the world has demanded fossil fuel products, and few concerns have been raised about their carbon footprint. "www.forbes.com/sites/danielmarkind/2020/04/01/to-fight-the-coronavirus-the-world-returns-to-fossil-fuels/amp/ Aint that the truth. Pragmatism trumps idealism every single time when the chips are really down.

If you go to www.earthatnullschool.net/ and look at 250, 70, 10 hPa you will see that there is a very strong polar vortex and lower down there are almost no 'southerly' winds blowing warmer air into the Arctic. Seems to be a stable set up too. That uptick may continue. Yeah, but thats just weather, innit. Doesn't count if the ice increases because of weather. Only weather induced losses count.
