Heavy dose of solar microwave radiation has much more to do with the current US heatwave than any man made “carbon footprint”.

Obviously someone must have sent an SUV to the sun. Nothing else could cause that kind of solar warming. </sarc>

Even on the surface of the sun, things are heating up.Well duh!! It's been so hot on Earth lately, the heat had to go somewhere. Any blonde knows that.
To: markomalley
...violent outbursts from the sun that can wreck havoc here on Earth...Is havoc a GM product? Not exactly environmentally correct if solar storms can wreck them.
Yes, the CBS News website says wreck havoc instead of wreak havoc.

"This has already been a summer of record heat in the continental United States. But our sun is not content with just breaking records in the first week of July." Wait....what's the sun got to do with our record high temperatures? Everyone knows that they're being caused by the 0.04% carbon dioxide in our atmosphere. Morons!

Fire a couple of nukes into it, that ought to calm it down!;)

So much for greenhouse gases. This is the true culprit of global warming over which we can do nothing.

Yes, there is really global warming. It comes from the Sun. Duuhhh!
It has been know for 100+ years that weather is more variable during sunspot minimums and sunspot maximums. The transition between min/max or max/min is the worst.

To: lightman
The sun, when at its spottiest, throws out more coronal material which is captured by the magnetic field of the earth. This acts to thwart incoming cosmic rays (speeding heavy atomic nuclei produced by novas in deep outer space). This provides fewer seeds for clouds, and the cloud cover diminishes allowing more sunlight to heat the ground.
Or so the theory goes. Anyhow spotty sun tends to mean warming earth. Lack of sunspots brings more clouds and cooling earth.

If Obama only thought himself a sun god. I think he believes himself to be a Higgs boson, without which nothing has any weight.
