Obama Blames Poor GDP On (Unadjusted) Cold Weather!

NOT A LOT OF PEOPLE KNOW THAT

The White House has released their latest disappointing estimate for Q1 GDP, and comment:

Overall the first quarter was subject to a number of notable influences, including historically severe winter weather, which temporarily lowered growth.

They go on to show this graph of heating days and comment:

The first quarter of 2014 was marked by unusually severe winter weather, including record cold temperatures and snowstorms, which explains part of the difference in GDP growth relative to previous quarters. The left chart shows the quarterly deviation in heating degree days from its average for the same quarter over the previous five years. By this measure, the first quarter of 2014 was the third most unusually cold quarter over the last sixty years, behind only the first quarter of 1978 and the fourth quarter of 1976.

This is all rather strange, because the heavily adjusted temperatures, published…

1947 Shock News : 10 Degrees Arctic Warming To Melt The Polar Ice Caps And Drown The Planet

Real Science

A real wake up call from 70 years ago! The Arctic was warming catastrophically, and was going to melt and drown us all.

40 Years Ago : Scientists Said The Cooling Trend Was causing Erratic Weather And Starvation

Real Science

NASA has recently erased the post-1940 cooling trend, but prominent scientists who studied it at the time said that it was causing erratic weather, crop failures and mass starvation.

Can We Save The San Francisco Airport?

Real Science

Anthony Watts reported yesterday that Jerry Brown is worried about LAX drowning, as it is only 125 feet above sea level. But what about SFO, which is only 10 feet or so above the Bay? At current rates of sea level rise, SFO will be underwater in only infinity years.

Satellites Or Surface Data?

Real Science

Climate scientists choose to use whatever data brings in funding.

With temperature, they use UHI contaminated tampered surface data – and ignore much more accurate satellite data which shows no warming.

With sea level, they use tampered satellite data – and ignore surface data which shows no change in trend.

Measuring Greenhouse Gas Warming Of The Atmosphere

Real Science

Satellite data provides continuous high resolution temperature information across almost all regions of the Earth, and across all the layers of the atmosphere.

By contrast, surface data provides spotty low-resolution data which is UHI contaminated, tampered with, and scientists say suffers severely from time of observation bias.

Scientists of course choose to use the meaningless surface data, because the satellite data doesn’t show any warming.

Never mind that NASA says the satellite data is more accurate. Funding is the important thing.

Understanding How To Make Up Fake Data For NASA

Real Science

Gavin made up a fake 4-8 degree April anomaly across a region of Siberia and the Arctic where he had no data. Note the green circle.

ScreenHunter_31 May. 15 08.52

Now compare vs. the green circle in satellite data, which was actually measured. Gavin missed by 4-8 degrees in that region, and thus was able to declare that April was 2nd hottest ever.

ScreenHunter_32 May. 15 08.52

It doesn’t take a very large area of fake +8 anomaly to bump global temperatures up by 0.3C.

Tracing The Antarctic Scam

Real Science

Ten years ago, Gavin said temperatures in Antarctica had “decreased significantly.”

Shindell and Schmidt 2004

While most of the Earth warmed rapidly during recent decades, surface temperatures decreased significantly over most of Antarctica.

NASA published maps showing the strong cooling in Antarctica

A couple of years later someone at NASA figured out that Antarctic cooling didn’t fit the agenda. so they simply changed it into warming.

Disintegration: Antarctic Warming Claims Another Ice Shelf : Feature Articles

Now they have taken it a step further. NASA has completely ignored the record sea ice, and has fabricated a nonsensical story about deep ocean heat melting the ice from below.

Satellites show that Antarctica is cooling, just as Gavin said 10 years ago – before politics replaced science.
