Climate records back to Viking times show the 20th century was unexceptional for rainfall and droughts despite assumptions that global warming would trigger more wet and dry extremes, a study showed on Wednesday.
Stretching back 1,200 years, written accounts of climate indicated that variations in the extremes in the 20th century were less than in some past centuries.
"Several other centuries show stronger and more widespread extremes," lead author Fredrik Ljungqvist of Stockholm University told Reuters. "We can't say it's more extreme now."
Ljungqvist said many existing scientific models of climate change over-estimated assumptions that rising temperatures would make dry areas drier and wet areas wetter, with more extreme heatwaves, droughts, downpours and droughts.

Share this information with Al Gore. It will give him a "Code Blue Coronary."

No, the science is settled.
Somebody is in the pocket of Big Oil, or Big Freon.

No, the science is settled.Gee, at one time the flat Earth around which the universe rotated was settled science, too. As was bloodletting to bleed off evil spirits and hanging or burning witches.

Is there anything so idiotic that someone isn’t preaching it?
Have we always been this stupid?
