[Pearls Before Swine]

Every friggin’ year there are weather extremes somewhere, and new records are set. Spare me.

This represents what Judith Curry, one of the really good scientists, calls “weather amnesia.” We tend to forget isolated anomalies, and think the next big deal is the first time it ever happened.

Just human nature, but do not be sucked in.

Tell me about it. Here on the east coast New York, Connecticut, Mass, Pennsylvania, NJ, it was chilly all through June. Only now as we near July is it getting up into the 80s although only a few days have been like that. They’ve been spewing this global warming crap since 1979, and I’ve yet to experience ANY weather pattern that makes me think something is wrong. Where are the 110 degree heatwaves? If we’ve had global warming for the past 40 years, how come it never gets higher than 90 like it’s been doing for the past FIVE CENTURIES??
