In the Times yesterday, we read the following: The jet stream — the powerful transatlantic wind that dominates British weather — is being shrunk by climate change, scientists say. Climate change shrinks many things: the US economy, fisheries, fish, chips, Salamanders, wasps, tropical moths, plankton (could they get much smaller?), mountain goats, the Winter … Continue reading
It’s not Mao’s Great Leap Forward, it’s the Leap Forward in Great Science, that being Climate Science. Warming signal links global floods and fires. Great science leaps forward by @FrediOtto @gjvoldenborgh and others have made link more certain than ever https://t.co/hfACSLn2h5 — Piers Forster (@piersforster) November 15, 2019 In view of the policy measures currently … Continue reading
Following on from the September Climate Crisis Update, one month later and it’s even worse than we thought. Whereas September in the UK, although only the 24th warmest, was still in the top 25% warmest since 1910, October 2019 is in the bottom 33% coolest since that time. It is a full half a degree … Continue reading
I’ve already brought this subject up in a comment on John Ridgway’s latest post. But I’ll labour the point because I think it does bear labouring and it’s indicative of a disturbing trend in climate change activist circles now to ignore science, ignore evidence and basically make stuff up, which is then re-packaged as … Continue reading
The long hot summer of climate change/heatwave propaganda continues with the release of yet another ‘study‘ of European temperature extremes, this time by the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology. As usual, the story is splashed all over the media that Europe is warming even faster than models predicted. So it’s just the usual … Continue reading
I’ve already covered the attribution study recently rushed out by scientists with regard to the very hot spell of weather in June. Now most of those same scientists have published a second attribution study which focuses on the 3 or 4 very hot days in northern France and Europe and the one very … Continue reading
2003. 2018 and now 2019: very hot (record-breakingly hot) conditions affect parts of central and northern Europe, with 2003 being by far the most significant and prolonged event. Cue, climate change hysteria from the warmist media, whacko climate crisis obsessed eco-loonies and AGW-biased scientists in search of research grants, prestige and a ‘noble cause’ … Continue reading
Meteorologist Cliff Mass reports the Pacific northwest jet stream over the US at the moment is the strongest ever recorded during summer: An extraordinary weather event has been occurring above our heads during the past 24-hour. A record that was not only broken, but shattered to little pieces. We’ve heard lots about how wavy and … Continue reading
The guys and gals at World Weather Attribution have pulled a white rabbit out of the hat yet again to confirm to a breathlessly waiting queue of climate activists, alarmists and media hacks their worst suspicions – yes, humans did indeed make the recent June heatwave in France much more likely and more … Continue reading
I wrote about the dark art of rapid extreme weather attribution nearly three years ago. My, how time flies by. But that’s old hat now. Peter Stott, the Met Office pioneer of extreme weather attribution re. his study of the 2003 European heatwave has got very excited about the forecast brief spell of … Continue reading
