NOAA is predicting a warm winter. Got to push that AGW agenda.
BTW, they didn’t predict the severe cold we experienced last year as it didn’t fit their global warming models.
NOAA is going to be horribly wrong. EVERY (and I mean every) long-range private sector forecaster (those who have to make a living being right...not working for the government) is predicting a colder than normal winter.
The problem with government forecasters is this: There is no accountability. If you blow a forecast, oh well. If you do that in the private sector you will lose clients...and $$$...and your job.
Farmers Almanac is predicting a rather nasty winter in my region. They were spot on last year.
