3,000 Low Temp Records Set This July!


www.accuweather.com
1,044 daily record low temperatures have been broken this month nationwide according to NCDC -- count record "low highs" and the number increases to 2,925, surely to pass 3,000 before the end of the month.

The period of July 17-20 was the worst, with over 1,600 stations breaking records. It's worth noting that these stats include all records across the nation.

When I went to H&R Block this year for my taxes, the woman asked if I had contributed anything last year.

I told her (proudly) that I had contributed to global warming.

she didn't laugh

I can tell you that our Summer here in Ohio has been more mild than any summer I can remember. I've barely even had to use the AC this year.

no but seriously how much more proof does anyone need that there are problems with our climate?


Our planet goes through non-stop climate changes. What makes now any different than the last few million years?

Set a level of carbon useage for businesses and if the business EXCEEDS the amount....give them a tax break!



Well an ice age is the result of global warming. Global warming causes ice caps to melt.

Fresh water enters the system and decreases he ability of the Thermohaline Conveyor to equalize temperatures, thus causing a .... wait for it.... MAJOR COOLING!. Yep.. It's the pendulum... push it to far one direction it will swing back in a rapid manner.

I'm not making any claims on what has caused this, be it solar, man made whatever, it doesn't really matter. What matters is that we start to begin to understand it instead of acting like Hicks who think that cooling is contradictory to global warming...

Soooo, let me get this straight. Gobal warming causes global cooling?

Isn't that like saying, "dieting causes weight gain?"

Or, "Water causes dehydration?"

You got it.... it caused the Big Freeze in Europe.

Take some time and read about the Thermohaline Conveyor and the overall cooling effects that global warming causes when the Conveyor is impacted.

I'm not sure how you could compare weight gain to global warming, but I'm sure that's probably part of the reason you seem to think it's funny. Comparing apples to oranges always is.

It would be more accurate to say that global warming causes greater variations from the mean.

Most people misunderstand the effects of global warming to be a steady progessive rise in temperature. While it is true that global warming gradually increases the mean over time, the immediate local effect can be lower than normal temperatures. By local on a global scale, I mean a region like half of North America.

We happen to be at the deepest solar minimum ever recorded. Check the link and look at the sun today: probably zero sunspots. Check the archives for any date going back two years and you will find the same thing: pretty much zero sunspots. I'm not sure what effect this is having on the weather, but it certainly must have something to do with it.

Well, read those links. Interesting. What struck me though, was that every case illustrated was 5,000 to 12,000 years ago.

If we are entering another period like you described, then it is likely cyclic in nature and not man-made. Or where there John Deere tractors 10,000 years ago?

I do wish AL Gore was there 10,000 years ago, but that's just my humble opinion. . . .
