22 March: ClimateRealism: Media Scares Themselves, Confuse “Unprecedented” Weather Model Temperature Spikes with Actual Temperatures
By Anthony Watts (WattsUpWithThat)
This past week two left-leaning media outlets, MSN (via The Washington Post aka WaPo), and the always alarmed UK based The Guardian ran stories saying the Arctic and Antarctic, had experienced “unprecedented” high temperatures. These claims can’t be verified since they were the results from a set of weather model simulations, indicating variations of above normal temperatures for the regions, not actual surface temperatures measured by ground-based weather stations...
These researchers, and the corporate media outlets which uncritically parroted their claims, have presented no extraordinary evidence that either Antarctica or the Arctic experienced an unusual spike in warming. Model simulations simply aren’t evidence.

The lead story on the June 29 MSNBC News was that there were terrible floods in the United States and–interspersed in the middle of the story–that global warming is going to be even worse than we thought. This was one‐sided, emotional science reporting even worse than I thought possible.The story was rooted in a recent study by Tom Wigley, introduced as “a respected climatologist.” Wigley’s study was financed by the Pew Foundation, which is running a multi‐million‐dollar campaign to hype global warming.
...
Having held a doctorate in climatology for two decades, I feel confident in saying that every one of my colleagues who has expressed an opinion to me dislikes Wigley, mainly because he seems arrogantly dismissive of some facts when they get in the way of his theories. He actively discourages the airing of points of view that conflict with his.
In October 1994, at a global warming meeting called by Rep. John Dingell (D‑Mich.), Wigley was confronted with the reality that satellites had found no warming. He merely waved his hands and said, “Oh come now, that's just the satellite data.” Oh come now, Tom, it's just the only global measure of temperature that exists!
...
He co‐authored a famous 1996 paper that showed that, from 1963 through 1987, the behavior of the atmosphere did in fact increasingly resemble that of one in which greenhouse warming was being counteracted by sulfate cooling. But the data available for his study actually began in 1957 and ended in 1995. When all of the data on the critical region of the atmosphere was looked at, there was no change whatsoever! Wigley has never given a satisfactory explanation of why he ignored all the data. Should he write a response to this paper, I reserve the right to reply.

But now a shock: Canadian scientists Stephen McIntyre and Ross McKitrick have uncovered a fundamental mathematical flaw in the computer program that was used to produce the hockey stick. In his original publications of the stick, Mann purported to use a standard method known as principal component analysis, or PCA, to find the dominant features in a set of more than 70 different climate records. AdvertisementLife, Liberty and LevinInterview with Professor Patrick Michaels posted Nov 3, 2018, from Oct 21, 2018.But it wasnt so. McIntyre and McKitrick obtained part of the program that Mann used, and they found serious problems. Not only does the program not do conventional PCA, but it handles data normalization in a way that can only be described as mistaken.
Now comes the real shocker. This improper normalization procedure tends to emphasize any data that do have the hockey stick shape, and to suppress all data that do not. To demonstrate this effect, McIntyre and McKitrick created some meaningless test data that had, on average, no trends. This method of generating random data is called Monte Carlo analysis, after the famous casino, and it is widely used in statistical analysis to test procedures. When McIntyre and McKitrick fed these random data into the Mann procedure, out popped a hockey stick shape!
CO2 does not explain climate change over the last 100 years, and the computers models are predicting far too much warming. The models have been wrong for over 20 years. The only model that has worked for the last 20 years is the Russian model which does not show much warming. Most of the talk about climate change is about models that have been wrong for over 20 years.
Before that, there was the University of East Anglia "Climategate" over released emails showing rigging of data and models. The issues over Michael Mann's "hockey stick" graph which as I recall, showed global warming even if random data was put into it. The evidence that past temperature records are being rewritten to prove warming in models, which is tampering with government records.
Of course, in today's grade schools good luck having this taught or talked about openly at all.
Democrats are having an even greater impact with all the fear porn they are swamping young people with.
oh yeah..worried about global warming are they??...what will they do if there is a nuclear exchange?...Minuteman 3..Trident D-5 ...10 million degrees at the center....then what....
Then to be followed by something called Nuclear Winter.
So, yes, yutes should get out their beachwear, but keep a good parka in the closet for later.
The assault will turn the rest into basalt.
I agree.
“The yutes have it so good that they have to make up stuff to worry about.”
The yutes??! What about all the irrational incessant fear mongering that goes on here? “We’re all going to die.” “Russians are going to nuke everyone” “Oil will hit $500” “we’re all going to starve.” “Insert hair on fire noise hete”
They’ve been trying to scare people for a really long time. I’ve been watching some old eighties shows the last couple of weeks and they were inserting agendas back then, too.
Wouldn’t it be great if all had a boomers’
birthday? The first gen after WWII were
brought up right. What the hell happened?
Hippies?
From WebMD: Psychosis is a condition that affects the way your brain processes information. It causes you to lose touch with reality. You might see, hear, or believe things that aren’t real. Psychosis is a symptom, not an illness. It can be triggered by a mental illness, a physical injury or illness, substance abuse, or extreme stress or trauma.
It’s not climate change, it’s being told that they need to question their gender identity.
That’s because their parents raised them to be morons.
Previous generations were subjected to nuclear war psychosis.
Our energy policy is being run by 15 yr old girls on twitter.
“Fear is the path to the dark side, fear leads to anger anger leads to hate hate leads to suffering” -Yoda
Why should they worry? Shortly we may have nukes rained down on us and that will set us back so far there won’t be any global warming to worry about.
Remember the fear of a Nuclear Winter caused by Nuclear War!
That was After the TERROR OF THE COMING ICE AGE, and the Ozone Hole, caused by Freon-12 cooking everyone!
In between those times it was the ALAR poisoning apples and Radon seeping into your houses from the ground.
And don’t forget the fear of STRAY INDUCED ELECTRIC CURRENTS causing your house wiring in your walls to give you cancer!
Somewhere in that mess Dioxin and PCBs were gonna get you!
Always keeping the people in a constant state of FEAR.
I still remember the first fear a teacher inflicted on me back in 1956. She said bubble gum would rot your teeth.
This scared me so bad I rarely chewed bubble gum again! And I loved bubble gum!
At the age of 75, I still have my teeth.
