Evidence of Global Cooling

[David Courtney]

Tuesday we told you about several areas around the planet experiencing
record cold and snowpack - in the face of all the predictions of global
warming.

Now there is word that all four major global temperature tracking outlets
have released data showing that temperatures have dropped significantly over
the last year. California meteorologist Anthony Watts says the amount of
cooling ranges from 65-hundredths of a degree Centigrade to 75-hundreds of a
degree.

That is said to be a value large enough to erase nearly all the global
warming recorded over the past 100 years. It is reportedly the single
fastest temperature change ever recorded - up or down.

Some scientists contend the cooling is the result of reduced solar
activity - which they say is a larger driver of climate change than man-made
greenhouse gases.

That site blows the "global warming" and "global climate change"
nutcases out of the water, using solid science, not politics.

Climate change politics is religious fundamentalism masquerading as
science.

A year and a half old article :o) And I thought I was a hopeful thinker when
it came to snow

There is no shortage of current articles saying the same thing:

"NASA satellites provide the best measurements we have of global
temperatures. The latest NASA data as of August 2009 shows that the Earth
has cooled since 1998, not warmed." Sept '09

http://www.delawareonline.com/article/20090914/OPINION10/90913015/1004/OPINION/Global+cooling+found+in+satellite+measurements

"The global surface temperature record, which we update and publish every
month, has shown no statistically-significant "global warming" for almost 15
years. Statistically-significant global cooling has now persisted for very
nearly eight years. Even a strong el Nino - expected in the coming months -
will be unlikely to reverse the cooling trend." July '09

http://www.dakotavoice.com/2009/09/global-warming-profiteers-exposed-agw-is-not-and-never-was-a-crisis/

"The countries of the developing world, led by China, India, Russia and
Brazil, continue to insist that, since global warming is all the fault of
the already developed countries of the West, it is up to the West to cut its
CO2 emissions by 80 per cent, while the rest of the world is allowed to
catch up. Some, such as China, are prepared to make token emission cuts, but
only so long as they are compensated by the West to the tune of trillions of
pounds a year." Sept '09

Cool

I hope it is true and that I can continue to enjoy riding. Not getting any
younger :-(

Good news
I've been patiently waiting for the "wheel'' to come around again, look'in
forward to a few years of good sledd'in.........

GEORGETOWN, Colo. - Loveland Ski Area is announcing its earliest opening day
in 40 years.

If you apply the full force of modern science to this stuff, and then
squint your eyes just right... it looks like we're in for some nice snowy
winters! LOL

Locally, the snowmobile crowd is pretty excited about this:

Check back in February, and December and January's weather will all be
history, but right now talk about " a spell of temperatures near 0 for highs
that last an extended period of time." does raise mixed feelings. Highs of
0° usually mean lows near -20°. Love the part about "frequent snowstorms and
some big storms", maybe not so much the part about a long siege of -20°.

No kidding... if only water would freeze at around 50f. LOL

Yeah, but if it did there would be no human life on this planet as we know
it. Ever read the story about how things would have worked out if water got
denser as it got colder like most compounds do?
