The red line shows the difference from normal - normal aka average being 0
----------------------------------------It shows the ongoing trend of inexorable decrease in the global sea ice coverage due to our carbon dioxide emissions causing man made global warming .......  ...hang on a minute....are you sure that's correct....there can't be.....the models say....no not the sun....what about the Oceans we'll tell 'em the Oceans ate our homework...that will stop them asking questions for a while.... more than normal you say....

I showed the above graph to my future Sister-in-Law's Uncle yesterday
----------------------------------------He looked at the graph, looked at me, and exclaimed "Well I'll be " and the rest would be tidied up due a wrong combination of letters for the forum. His fantastic response to facts will keep me fueled for a long long time. [Edit 1 times, last edit by David Autumns at Dec 26, 2014 9:35:22 AM] |

My nieces were pretty sure it was snow this afternoon
---------------------------------------- 14 years on http://www.independent.co.uk/environment/snow...g-of-the-past-724017.html "Dr David Viner, a senior research scientist at the climatic research unit (CRU) of the University of East Anglia,within a few years winter snowfall will become "a very rare and exciting event". "Children just aren't going to know what snow is," he said." It curtailed the boxing day party as we all dashed home so we didn't get something'ed in |

The December 2014 result is in and the average temperature from 2438 NOAA Weather Stations around the Globe was 5.002C - the warmest December in the series, right after the coldest November in the series. The yin and yang of the weather and our climate.
---------------------------------------- The average temperature January 2014 through to the end of December 2014 was 12.499C Up 199/1000ths of a degree compared with the year to the end of November 2014  Here's another forum friendly sized graph that updates hourly  The graphs above are (at this moment in time) the result of 87,208,640 individual temperature measurements taken around the Globe from (the same set of) NOAA Weather Stations since the beginning of 2011  We now have 4 years worth of data 2011 12.584C 2012 13.047C 2013 12.259C 2014 12.499C Just remember when you are being bombarded by the news that 2014 was the hottest year ever... the thermometers don't lie Average temperature across all 4 years = 12.598C In the UK we have had an exceptionally mild year with the year end looking like being just under 1.5C warmer than the 1961-1990 average - the highest Central England Temperature since records began in 1772. Our Government got lucky as a result and the lights stayed on. As we have seen in our temperature series record highs can be followed by record lows and vice versa Here's to 2015, may God bless her and all who sail in her, around our local Star Dave [Edit 1 times, last edit by David Autumns at Jan 1, 2015 2:12:59 AM] |
