2009 to be one of warmest years on record: researchers

Isn't that what the researchers said last year?

Got your global warming picture right here:

What most of the northern states looked like in mid-December....

“Currently the warmest year on record is 1998”

I think he is repeating a false claim. I believe 1998 was downgraded by a Canadian pajama blogger who forced NASA GISS to recant and revise their record. To be correct the author should have said ‘Currently the warmest year on record is 1934.’

While this may not prove anything one way or another, it sure does leave a different impression.

Sounds good to me, I have eight trips to New England, Ontario, Chicago and Michigan in the first ten weeks of the new year.

Warmer weather? Excellent, more hurricanes and tropical storms to nourish crops that could not be grown/bountiful harvest due to colder weather.

While this may not prove anything one way or another, it sure does leave a different impression.

Actually, it does prove something -- that the lying hoaxers use false data to hype phony claims. Thus, the "different impression" is what they seek.

[Paladin2]

Shouldn’t those red lines be shifted more to the right?

[MamaDearest]

The GloBull Warming idiots just won't give up.

The northern US has about 5' of snow in many areas in which the alarmist crybabies can cool themselves off. Their agenda is falling on frozen ears and snowflake covered eyelashes. Snowfall total records are being shattered nationally, but the followers of the global warming mantra are akin to cult devotees for their ceaseless cause.

Media devotes little or no coverage or articles (other than those which diminish legitimacy of those opposed to global warming) to scientists debunking this fraud. Incredible they have the audacity to wonder why most people go to the internet for news and weather reports. They are self-destructing IMHO.

[Safetgiver]

I WILL BOOKMARK THIS PAGE. Maybe my begonias will flourish this year.

[San Jacinto]

..according to researchers at the Met Office

The MET OFFICE? Who gives a big rats arse....

Yeah, let's see what the Yankee office says.

Thanks for posting the article.

“Currently the warmest year on record is 1998, which saw average temperatures of 14.52 degrees celsius - well above the 1961-1990 long-term average of 14 degrees celsius.”

Oh..... so 14.52c is WELL ABOVE 14.00c.

uh-huh.

Like $14.52 is a fortune compared to $14.00.

[Lee'sGhost]

Well...this makes for an interesting outcome then, doesn’t it. Either the solar theory or the carbon theory (excuse me, gospel) should be shown to be a fraud. I can’t wait.

To many jobs, to much money in it now.

Also it's become a social movement with it's music, slogans, guru's, politicians that pander, movies, etc etc etc.

Like with paper-recycling, this myth will now be pushed forward by the social movement and business behind it, not because of the science, economics or common sense. Two years of global cooling, when will they trash their idea you ask? Well, consider that after the ban of DDT, TENS OF THOUSANDS died from malaria and that didn't make much news. It took 30+ years to turn that tide and to where at least some recognition of the fallacy has come out. How about Acid Rain? The dangers of microwave ovens, cell phones, high power lines, the “Ozone Hole!!!!!!” Do you remember the stories of us all having skin cancer soon? I grew up 100% sure that by the time I'm an adult all our forests would have succumb to acid rain. Never mind the Rain Forest which also should already have disappeared, or our rivers that are so polluted that it will take hundreds of years for them to cleans themselves. Those nuclear test sites will be inhabitable for thousands of years, polluted by radiation, just in case you didn't know! In case you ever want to visit one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E2MTVlqFy3A

Don't hold your breath. The stupids aren't done yet with this cow since she's still bringing them some milk. Doomsday prophets and guru's have always been around.

Temperatures could drop to 50 below zero in parts of Alaska

FAIRBANKS - Bitterly cold weather slid over from Canada and settled into Interior Alaska with forecasters saying temperatures could continue to slide to nearly 50 degrees below zero in coming days.

Researchers wrong already... cold front will extend into 2009.

Happy New Year...

[YOUGOTIT]

1998 was not the warmest year on record. It was much warmer in the 1930s. This is a lie put out by the big time liar at the NASA weather shop.

[antiunion person]

Predicting weather by these nuts is just like NOAA trying to predict the amount of named hurricanes that will happen this year. I would love to see and meet the weatherman who can predict the weather just three days from now. It can't be done. Not even Al Dore can predict anything.

[Old Professer]

How did it become important?

[PreciousLiberty]

“Shouldn’t those red lines be shifted more to the right?”

Yes they should. In fact, in December we had three days out of thirty one with sunspots. That curve should be pegged at zero since 12/13, and we’re entering 2009 with an entirely blank Sun. (In fact, in my opinion compared with data from Galileo’s day probably only one day out of thirty one had a spot, since Galileo didn’t have satellite telescopes for observation.)

The solar minimum continues entirely unabated for now.
