Warmists will love this.

[Democracy In Iraq]

Whoa, hold on a second: that means that 2007 was cooler than other previous warmer years...

[The Great RJ]

So what....1934 was the hottest on record for the continental US and was also probably the driest year ever recorded and yet things cooled down during the 1940’s. The only global warming is in Al Gore’s hot air.

Of it was, considering how the damn thermometers were purposely put in parking lots. The whole damn thing is ridiculous.

... contradicting what NASA already reported from the same data.

[andy58-in-nh]

When you use measurements obtained exclusively in heat-island city centers and compare them with past results taken in less developed and more rural (colder) locations, the results are going to appear to confirm “warming” when in fact, what they confirm is a purposeful change in result due to methodological manipulation.

Personally I like the idea of the earth getting warmer. Longer growing seasons, less fossil fuel dependence, summer clothes are way cuter than winter clothes, more fresh water.
If the north east really does flood, well we could use a few less nor-eastern liberals anyway.

The Earth is several billion years old. "Records" go back only a couple hundred years. Accurate records go back 50? years. The last 50 years out of four billion ... yeah, that makes it easy to spot a trend.

This is hilarious. On their own site, in their own pol! 88% of responders are "Skeptics" or "Deniers". Notice how they fail to mention "Skeptics" in the bold section.

Tuesday, January 15, 2008 Initial Poll Results "I took a poll of the responses from the previous blog just for fun. This is clearly not a scientific poll and far from it! Keep in mind the polls are still open. Here's a running count.......... Wednesday morning update, looks like AGW has nudged ahead of the deniers. Polls will close this evening.

Skeptics.................69 votes........77%

AGW Proponents.....11 votes.........12%

Deniers....................10 votes.........11%

Apathetics................0 votes......... 0%

Second place still undecided...

Bahgdad is very cold now and there was snow last Friday for the first time in memory.

I wonder if that's all because of global warming?

[qam1]

One I don't believe this, this was a cold year all around the world, they are obviously fudging the data someway

But even if we take these numbers as is, it looks like global warming is over as temps are now in a downward trend.

[westmichman]

Did they add in the temp at the center of the earth?

[Mogollon]

California and Arizona agriculture took a multi-billion dollar hit because of the freezing (less than 20 deg. F.) weather last Feb 2007. It was the coldest Feb. in 30 years.

Hell froze over last week when Suadi Arabia saw snow.

[crazyhorse691]

No, no, no! The NOAA has it all wrong...the GISS has 2007 as #2 and 2007 would have been #1 except that “equatorial Pacific Ocean is in the cool phase of its natural El Nino - La Nina cycle”. It must be true because The Oregonian used the GISS report also for their story. no link for the fishwrap story, but, here is the link for the GISS report;http://www.columbia.edu/~jeh1/mailings/20080114_GISTEMP.pdf

Good for them. Texas had the coolest wettest summer recorded in about 35 years.

[Theo]

What’s that last line mean? “Global land surface temperature was the warmest on record.”

[tpanther]

Well, we’re making up for it already in early 2008. 3 inches of snow on the ground here outside of Atlanta and it hasn’t snowed this much here since 2001.

And sometime back in 2004 we had the coldest day here in Atlanta history!

[aruanan]

2007 was 5th Warmest on Record Globally

Is that a real record or a Hansen-enhanced record?
