sorry sig not data.
my comments relating to 9/11 do note reduce or diminish the intensity of the event its just major events in your face tend to hold your attention.
more recently we have Sandy which was harsh but if it were not a surge at peak tide it would have been a lot of rain and wind, no more. now it is a reason to accept that the world has different weather process in play.
such things as cumulative counts of world wide storm energy declining hold no attention for the harvesters of subsidies or grizzlers.

The Met Office forecast a below average July, what the UK actually gets is a scorcher...   |

The long term forecasts are not very skillful from any weather service.

I love that cuttydyer comment.
They are, by UK standards, "cooking" at the moment. Its even reached 30 degC!!!
[pretty average temperature for a Melbourne Summer day].
Another Met office stuff up. I recommend they go back to the abacus.
BTW, I hold the view that high land temperatures are actually a global cooling event. More radiation outwards from Stefan's Law.

Wow, who would have thought it - a sunny fortnight during Summer time (surely this is irrefutable proof of global warming!) - mind you, it is the 1st decent Summer weather we've had since 2006... Sadly back to cold & wet by the end of the month - it's been wonderful:   |

"mind you, it is the 1st decent Summer weather we've had since 2006..."
So even more reasons for keeping the lid on it now, eh?

Yes, Cuttydyer, what on earth could that be? Truly this was a "huh we ain't seen anything." situation. Thanks for providing a such a wonderful example of it.

A pictorial hint to further puzzle Mr Cuttydyer: Oh, I see now. Because we've had an all too brief period of Summer in the season called Summer (clues in the name!), it somehow proves CAGW. And let me guess, when Winter arrives & we experience Winter weather this will also be proof of CAGW... |

And remember you said this was your first summer for a while, in this cooling world. No wonder it took you by such a surprise, and you went just absolutely speechless.
No wonder we will see you post pictures of snow in the other thread. But they do not mean anything for real, I think you said?

And remember you said this was your first summer for a while, in this cooling world. No wonder it took you by such a surprise, and you went just absolutely speechless. This current spell of Summer weather during the season called Summer didn't take me by surprise, in fact I've written in many many threads about the possibility of an extreme hot summer with a meridional circulation pattern. Let me remind you (page 5 from this very thread):  high-altitude winds are broken up into irregular cells by weaker and more plentiful pressure centers, causing formation of a "meridional circulation" pattern. These small, weak cells may stagnate over vast areas for many months, bringing unseasonably cold weather on one side and unseasonably warm weather on the other. Droughts and floods become more frequent and may alternate season to season, as they did last year in India. Thus, while the hemisphere as a whole is cooler, individual areas may alternately break temperature and precipitation records at both extremes. As as for being speechless, on the 14th of this month I wrote: "The Met Office forecast a below average July, what the UK actually gets is a scorcher..." So, remind me - what is the point you're trying to make? |
