A cap-and-trade system aimed at curbing greenhouse gas emissions from fossil
fuels like petroleum and coal is at the heart of legislation that narrowly
passed the U.S. House of Representatives on June 26. The Senate is expected to
start considering it in September.

This kind of system, which Obama supports, aims to cut carbon dioxide emissions
by 17 percent from 2005 levels by 2020, and by 83 percent by 2050.

Instead, Palin advocated offshore oil drilling, drilling in Alaska's Arctic
National Wildlife Refuge, more coal mining ....

Record breaking cold temperatures in July. Coldest on record for June.

I think I'm going to get a second patio heater cause it's so darn cold
at night on my huge wooden deck.
One way or another, I'll make it feel like summer time out there by
the pool. Now where is that chlorine?

I kind of doubt that.

The Jet Strem dipped South bringing the US NE cooler than average
weather for now.
How is the rest of the world?
You are warming up normally colder Canadian & Arctic air
so even more warm air is going there to displace it south.

IOW Heat transport rates may be being forced upwards due
to it getting warmer.

Cool Summer Cuts Chlorine Costs - With pool water temperatures running
about 5 degrees cooler than normal this summer, pool owners in the

chlorine to replace what is lost,” says AccuWeather.com’s Gina

Freak Summer Snowstorm Hits Yonkers, NY - “A wintry mix of hail and
heavy thunderstorms downed trees and utility poles in Yonkers last

extra fire trucks were on hand to
help with the unseasonal cleanup.

Fresh snow on Mount Redoubt in Alaska – right on the Solstice no less!

Email from meteorologist:
“I do not know if snow in mid-June on Mount Redoubt is ‘normal’ or
not,” says meteorologist George Harvey. “To me, though, it flies in
the face of ‘Global Warming.’”

George Harvey

Senior Meteorologist

www.impactweather.com

See webcam picture here:

http://www.avo.alaska.edu/webcam/Redoubt_-_DFR.php

Jun 23 - A follow-up email from George:
Anecdotal evidence suggests summertime “snow caps” on Mt Redoubt are
not uncommon. Looking at pictures archived on the Alaska Volcano
Observatory site show that during past eruptive period (1989-90)
showed snow on the summit during July and August of 1990.

This suggests that snowfall like this does occur at any time of the
year.

Twelve inches of rain in one day in North Dakota - Bismarck, ND - A
video on weather.com interviews a farmer who measured 12 inches of
rain in 24 hours on his farm. His neighbor’s rain gauges are only 6”
high and they overflowed. Yet the official reports say only this:

The National Weather Service said its reports ranged from 5.6 inches
at the Bismarck airport since Monday to more than 7 inches east of the
city with about an inch falling in an hour Tuesday afternoon.

“Now, 12” of rain would = 120” of snow = 10 FEET of snow!!!!” says
reader Stephanie Relfe. “Remember, North Dakota was where they had
some of the major snow storms.”

Bulldozing Hail in New Jersey – It looked as if a blizzard blew
through after several inches of dime-sized hailstones piled up.
Residents broke out the snow shovels, officials sent bulldozers to

“Plowing snow, ice, whatever you want to call it on a street in
Washington Township in June. It wasn't an understatement to say folks
in the neighborhood were shocked.

"Never in my lifetime, never," Karen Yates said.

Historic cold in Twin Cities - Minnesota’s State Climatology Office
says the temperatures in St. Paul and Minneapolis stayed below for 60
for three straight days, something that hasn't happened in June since

The only other years with three days in a row of high temperatures
below 60 in June were 1917, 1935, and 1937.

The high temperature of 52 degrees on Saturday set a record as the
lowest high temperature for that date.

Florida colder than normal
Email from reader
Hi Robert,
I don't have actual statistics, but we've been going to the beach the
last week (Palm Coast Florida) and we can't remember it every being
cold like this. When a cold wind blows, which it is usually, and the
clouds are over, which they are mostly, it's almost cold enough for a
light sweater. And this is FLORIDA in June (admittedly, North Florida
- but it is normally VERY hot by now)!!! The water is also
unseasonably cold. One is chattering after an hour's swim, even at
the hottest part of the day. THIS IS NOT NORMAL.

Below-normal temperatures through mid-June for much of northern U.S.

“Holy frozen petunias, Batman, this is cold — even for us."

“The trend so far in June, and for the foreseeable future, continues a
very cold and slow-starting spring across the Northland."

“The Climate Prediction Center is forecasting below-normal
temperatures through at least mid-June for much of the northern U.S."

“You guys have been cold even by northern Minnesota standards,” said
Pete Boulay, assistant state climatologist."

Year Without a Summer? - According to Long Range Expert Joe Bastardi,
areas from the northern Plains into the Northeast will have a "year
without a summer." The jet stream, which is suppressed abnormally
south this spring, is also suppressing the number of thunderstorms
that can form. The ones that do form in areas of the Ohio Valley and
West are forming in places with very cold temperatures, which can lead
to more electrified thunderstorms than normal this year."

A prediction of a "year without a summer" sure fits into the
Global cooling
scenario and the beginnings of a little ice age, says Thomas.

Cool Summer Cuts Chlorine Costs - With pool water temperatures running

Fresh snow on Mount Redoubt in Alaska right on the Solstice no less!
I do not know if snow in mid-June on Mount Redoubt is normal or
not, says meteorologist George Harvey. To me, though, it flies in
the face of Global Warming.
George Harvey
Senior Meteorologist
www.impactweather.com
http://www.avo.alaska.edu/webcam/Redoubt_-_DFR.php
Anecdotal evidence suggests summertime snow caps on Mt Redoubt are
not uncommon. Looking at pictures archived on the Alaska Volcano
Observatory site show that during past eruptive period (1989-90)
showed snow on the summit during July and August of 1990.
This suggests that snowfall like this does occur at any time of the
year.

Twelve inches of rain in one day in North Dakota - Bismarck, ND - A
video on weather.com interviews a farmer who measured 12 inches of
rain in 24 hours on his farm. His neighbors rain gauges are only 6
The National Weather Service said its reports ranged from 5.6 inches
at the Bismarck airport since Monday to more than 7 inches east of the
city with about an inch falling in an hour Tuesday afternoon.
Now, 12 of rain would = 120 of snow = 10 FEET of snow!!!! says
reader Stephanie Relfe. Remember, North Dakota was where they had
some of the major snow storms.

Bulldozing Hail in New Jersey It looked as if a blizzard blew
through after several inches of dime-sized hailstones piled up.
Residents broke out the snow shovels, officials sent bulldozers to
clear the streets, and children formed hailballs.
Plowing snow, ice, whatever you want to call it on a street in
Washington Township in June. It wasn't an understatement to say folks
in the neighborhood were shocked.
"Never in my lifetime, never," Karen Yates said.
In New York, Central Park has recorded more than 5 inches of rain

Florida colder than normal
Email from reader
Hi Robert,
I don't have actual statistics, but we've been going to the beach the
last week (Palm Coast Florida) and we can't remember it every being
cold like this. When a cold wind blows, which it is usually, and the
clouds are over, which they are mostly, it's almost cold enough for a
light sweater. And this is FLORIDA in June (admittedly, North Florida
- but it is normally VERY hot by now)!!! The water is also
unseasonably cold. One is chattering after an hour's swim, even at
the hottest part of the day. THIS IS NOT NORMAL.

Below-normal temperatures through mid-June for much of northern U.S.
Holy frozen petunias, Batman, this is cold even for us."
The trend so far in June, and for the foreseeable future, continues a
very cold and slow-starting spring across the Northland."
The Climate Prediction Center is forecasting below-normal
temperatures through at least mid-June for much of the northern U.S."

Year Without a Summer? - According to Long Range Expert Joe Bastardi,
areas from the northern Plains into the Northeast will have a "year
without a summer." The jet stream, which is suppressed abnormally
south this spring, is also suppressing the number of thunderstorms
that can form. The ones that do form in areas of the Ohio Valley and
West are forming in places with very cold temperatures, which can lead
to more electrified thunderstorms than normal this year."

A prediction of a "year without a summer" sure fits into the

"record high temperatures" (2009)

The Jet Stream dipped South so cold air from Canada & the Arctic came ....
which is being warmed up.
OTOH Warm air from elsewhere had to move North someplace to
displace it. Due to warming no doubt. And warming the Arctic even more.
And it's a solar minimum I gather ....

Record breaking cold temperatures in July. Coldest on record for June.

I kind of doubt that.

I realize my last post was lengthy....but I want to present you some
FACTS with websites verifying them. Here are some more facts.....

Are you aware that low temperature records were set in 46 states
during the month of June? According to the National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), some 538 low temperature records
were set in June alone.

The Nisqually Glacier on Mt. Rainier is growing. The Emmons Glacier on
Mt. Rainier is growing. Crater Glacier on Mt. Saint Helens is growing.
(According to the US Forest Service, Crater Glacier is now larger than
it was before the 1980 eruption.) Glaciers on Glacier Peak in northern
Washington are growing. Glaciers are also growing on California’s Mt.
Shasta, and that glaciers are growing in Alaska for the first time in
250 years. In May, Alaska’s Hubbard Glacier was advancing at the rate
of seven feet per day - more than half-a-mile per year. And in Icy
Bay, at least three glaciers have advanced a third of a mile in one
year.

You say thats just North America....Well....

Perito Moreno Glacier, the largest glacier in Argentina, is growing.
Pio XI Glacier, the largest glacier in Chile, is growing. Glaciers are
growing on Mt. Logan, the tallest mountain in Canada. Glaciers are
growing on Mt. Blanc, the tallest mountain in France.

Glaciers (230 of them) are growing in the Western Himalayas. Glaciers
are growing in Norway. Recently, all 50 glaciers in New Zealand were
growing. Glaciers in Greenland are growing thicker. And contrary to
what we’ve being told, the Antarctic Ice Sheet is growing, not
shrinking.

More than 90 percent of the world’s glaciers are growing, but all that
we hear about are the ones that are shrinking. Fuck Kilimanjaro.

According to Dr. Roy Spencer, climatologist and former NASA scientist,
satellite data for June shows that the earth has cooled an astounding .
74°F since former Vice President Al Gore released his bullshit "An
Inconvenient Truth" in 2006.

These are all facts that can be verified. What "facts" do you have to
contradict them?

You obviously can't tell which it is. So I would suggest that if you
really want to know the truth here is what you should do. Instead of
looking and listening to the people who say global warming is a hoax
what you should do is look at the other side. Examine the case made by
the top climate scientists who say global warming is real. See how many
in the legitimate scientific community agree with that view. Look at how
good the case for global warming really is. If you did that I doubt you
would still think it's not for real. Do I expect you to actually look at
the facts the other side presents, Hell no. I think you will only listen
to the antis and more than likely to what Limbaugh tells you. That's
what a typical right winger would do.

March 2009 Tenth Warmest on Record for Global Temperatures

http://www.noaanews.noaa.gov/stories2009/20090416_globalmarchstats.html?loc=interstitialskip
[
The combined global land and ocean surface temperature for March was
55.87degrees F, which at 0.97 degrees F above the 20th century average of 54.9
degrees F ranks as the 10th warmest March on record.

Separately, the March global land surface temperature was 42.47 degrees F, which
was 1.67 degrees F above the 20th century average of 40.8 degrees F, ranking it
as 10th warmest March on record.

The March global ocean surface temperature of 61.42 degrees F was eighth warmest
on record, reaching 0.72 degrees F above the 20th century average of 60.7
degrees F.

The combined global land and ocean surface temperature for the year to date
(January-March) was 55.04 degrees F, 0.94 degrees F above the 20th century
average of 54.1 degrees F and ranking eighth warmest.

The Northern Hemisphere experienced its 12th warmest March on record, while the
March 2009 Northern Hemisphere average ocean surface temperature tied with 2001
and 2006 for seventh warmest.

For the Southern Hemisphere, March 2009 land surface temperature was the fourth
warmest March on record, while the March 2009 ocean surface temperature was
sixth warmest.

"Global warming impacts appear much more severe in polar latitudes than in
tropical regions."

BS.
Who feeds you this stuff?

Makes you wonder, doesn't it? I mean if this guy is as educated as he
says you would think he could look at evidence and make a fair
conclusion. All the climate scientists are doing is that, looking at the
evidence and they can't help but see the same thing. But I do understand
how the uneducated are taken in by the industry of science deniers and
sand throwers. I can't understand this from anyone with an education,
especially one in science. Is it possible that global warming is not
being caused by man and something else could be the cause? Sure. But
until scientists find out what that is they have to go on what the
evidence they have says as of now. The available science says global
warming is a fact and it's man made. Because of that one should take the
position that is true and believe it until something comes around to
disprove it. Not the other way around.

But you'd still have to explain away where the excess energy captured

mfg held my interest over everything)...but even then i had a

Our time frame is 4,567 million years. So what they’re doing is the
equivalent of trying to extrapolate the plot of Star Wars from 2
minutes of Empire Strikes Back.... It does not work. and I got a guy

Examine the case made by
the top climate scientists who say global warming is real. See how many
in the legitimate scientific community agree with that view. Look at how
good the case for global warming really is. If you did that I doubt you
would still think it's not for real. Do I expect you to actually look at
the facts the other side presents, Hell no. I think you will only listen
to the antis and more than likely to what Limbaugh tells you. That's
what a typical right winger would do.

Record breaking cold temperatures in July. Coldest on record for June.

I kind of doubt that.

I realize my last post was lengthy....but I want to present you some
FACTS with websites verifying them. Here are some more facts.....
Are you aware that low temperature records were set in 46 states
during the month of June? According to the National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), some 538 low temperature records
were set in June alone.
The Nisqually Glacier on Mt. Rainier is growing. The Emmons Glacier on
Mt. Rainier is growing. Crater Glacier on Mt. Saint Helens is growing.
(According to the US Forest Service, Crater Glacier is now larger than
it was before the 1980 eruption.) Glaciers on Glacier Peak in northern
Washington are growing. Glaciers are also growing on California’s Mt.
Shasta, and that glaciers are growing in Alaska for the first time in
250 years. In May, Alaska’s Hubbard Glacier was advancing at the rate
of seven feet per day - more than half-a-mile per year. And in Icy
Bay, at least three glaciers have advanced a third of a mile in one
year.
You say thats just North America....Well....
Perito Moreno Glacier, the largest glacier in Argentina, is growing.
Pio XI Glacier, the largest glacier in Chile, is growing. Glaciers are
growing on Mt. Logan, the tallest mountain in Canada. Glaciers are
growing on Mt. Blanc, the tallest mountain in France.
Glaciers (230 of them) are growing in the Western Himalayas. Glaciers
are growing in Norway. Recently, all 50 glaciers in New Zealand were
growing. Glaciers in Greenland are growing thicker. And contrary to
what we’ve being told, the Antarctic Ice Sheet is growing, not
shrinking.
More than 90 percent of the world’s glaciers are growing, but all that
we hear about are the ones that are shrinking. Fuck Kilimanjaro.
According to Dr. Roy Spencer, climatologist and former NASA scientist,
satellite data for June shows that the earth has cooled an astounding .
74°F since former Vice President Al Gore released his bullshit "An
Inconvenient Truth" in 2006.
These are all facts that can be verified. What "facts" do you have to
contradict them?

About any of them.
All you have is BS & confusion.

Want some clarity from an unexpected source? Bill O'reilly, no less, on
his program last week said that the temperature of the planet has heated
measurably in the last 30 years. He added, there is no debate on the
fact that the planet is warming. The only disagreement is on the cause.
By far most climate experts believe the warming is due to the actions of
humans. A small number of deniers and industry paid anti global warming
shills argue humans have nothing to do with it. But consider the source.
Even Bill O'reilly says it's getting hotter. The only folks who say
otherwise seem to draw paychecks from the energy,and manufacturing
industries. That's more than enough for a rational person to know who to
believe.

http://www.oregonlive.com/opinion/index.ssf/2009/07/paranoia_strikes_when_rightwin.html
"Paranoia strikes when right-wing radio goes silent"
[
Moments after conservative talk radio station KPNW went suddenly silent for
several days earlier this month, many listeners were quick to accuse the Obama
administration of using its mighty power to take Rush Limbaugh and Lars Larson
off the air.

The mysterious black-out went on for hours, then days. When the local newspaper,
The Register-Guard, quoted station officials explaining that a 60-year backup
transmitter had failed in sizzling temperatures, the same listeners still could
not buy it. They jammed the station's phone lines, insisting "liberal
terrorists" must have sabotaged it.

And who can blame them for being suspicious? Isn't it more than a little bit
fishy that a 60-year transmitter would just all of a sudden break down in
94-degree heat?

One typical KPNW listener and conspiracy theorist, Ted Egan of Veneta, told the
Eugene paper he didn't buy the radio station's official explanation.

"You listen to these guys talk [Limbaugh, Larson, Michael Savage and so forth]
and they are really down on this guy Obama. They really blast him," Egan told
the paper. "I don't think he likes it, and I think he has the power to do
something."

It is indeed plausible that President Barack Obama is concerned about the
extreme rhetoric spewing these days from right-wing radio. Perhaps the
administration decided to intimidate Limbaugh & Co. by knocking a little
Eugene-Springfield station off the air for a few days, just to send a message.

What's baffling is that the station management, the same people responsible for
running all those conservative voices, joined in the conspiracy. By putting up
the flimsy story about the ancient broken-down transmitter, they helped cover up
Obama's fascist crackdown. (Or the liberal terrorist sabotage, or whatever evil
plot stopped the broadcasting.)
