Snow is falling in Tasmania today, just four days after the state experienced it hottest March weather on record.

Autumn is a time of contrasting weather in southern Australia, as hot air lingering over the mainland after summer clashes with cold air surging out of the Southern Ocean.

Heat Wave In Australia : Nearly 200 Deaths From Heat Apoplexy

Australia January, 1896

The long continuance of the unprecedented heat wave in New South Wales is proving a very serious matter to the residents in some of the districts, especially in the western portion of the colony.

Over 125 deaths from heat apoplexy have occurred In NewSouth Wales, and to this number Bourke has already contributed 40. The matter has become so serious that the railway authorities have commenced running trains at special cheap fares, to enable the residents to seek a cooler climate, and a great number are availing themselves of the opportunity.

Longest Heatwave In History Was 90 Years Ago. Worst Heatwave Was 100 Years Ago

Real Science

Marble Bar heatwave, 1923-24

The world record for the longest sequence of days above 100°Fahrenheit (or 37.8° on the Celsius scale) is held by Marble Bar in the inland Pilbara district of Western Australia. The temperature, measured under standard exposure conditions, reached or exceeded the century mark every day from 31 October 1923 to 7 April 1924, a total of 160 days.

Climate change: some reasons for our failures – the guardian

Academic Robert Manne knew evil human beings were responsible for catastrophic global warming 25 years ago.

“..primarily through the burning of fossil fuels human beings were responsible for potentially catastrophic global warming.”

“And yet, since Kyoto, greenhouse gas emissions have risen very steeply. The level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere—280 parts per million before the industrial revolution—is now 400 parts per million.” 

Two minor points Manne glossed over:

  • OVER the past 15 years air temperatures at the Earth’s surface have been flat while greenhouse-gas emissions have continued to soar. In other words, there has been no atmospheric global warming since 1998 despite a substantial increases in green-house gas emissions.

2013 GLOBAL TEMPS ALL DATASETS - Cooling

  •  A US Government NOAA report found the summer drought of 2012 was not caused by manne-made global warming but by natural variations in the weather. Manne’s emotional lead photo of a drought ravaged, dried-up marsh thus rendered alarmist propaganda. The NOAA study was released in March 2013. Manne’s article published 22 July 2013. Plenty of opportunity for due diligence. A second NOAA paper submitted to the American Meteorological Society also found the US record heat-wave of 2012 was due to natural variation and not caused by manne-made carbon dioxide emissions.
