Global warming stalls — but not demands for cash
…‘Dreary climate summit was surely their saddest fiasco yet’
NOAA: 1695 Low Max Records Broken or Tied From Sept 11 to Sept 20. One record broken by 25F
NOAA – 1695 Low Max Records Broken or Tied From Sept 11 to Sept 20. One record broken by 25F
Wow. One record was broken by 25F!!!! 1695 Low Max Records Broken or Tied From Sept 11 to Sept 20 according to the NOAA. A “Low Max” means that the maximum temperatures for the day was the lowest it has ever been. This indicates daytime cooling. Below is a screenshot showing location and the biggest difference between old record and new record. The list is just the ones I could capture in a screenshot.

Cheers! Happy 90th Birthday to the Dean of Skeptics — Dr. Fred Singer!

Very few have shaped the climate science debate and forced the unwanted discussion on climate change like Prof. S. Fred Singer has. Photo: Heartland Instiute One of the differences I’ve noticed between the USA and Germany is how birthdays are regarded and celebrated, especially the “round ones” ending with a zero, mostly beginning at age 40 (I’ve had a couple myself). They really are a big deal out here and big parties are always in order. “Round ones” are sort of seen as real milestones. Today one of the giants of climate science rationality and realism is celebrating his 90th birthday: S. Fred Singer. Without his leadership and wisdom, the global warming skepticism we see today no doubt would have been very different. It certainly would have been nowhere near as strong and as feared by alarmists as it is today. We owe him a huge thanks for that. It would take days or even weeks to write about all his accomplishments. To get an idea you can click here here or here. In 1990 he founded the Science & Environmental Policy Project. He has authored or co-authored books on global warming, one of which was key in forming my own positions on the subject: Unstoppable Global Warming Every 1500 Years. German Geologist Sebastian Lüning even credited Dr. Singer for playing a an important role in shaping his positions. It goes without saying that the same can be said for thousands of others. So NoTricksZone wishes Dr. Singer a wonderful and happy 90th birthday, and I’m sure readers, friend and foe alike, will also join me to wish him many more years participating and playing an instrumental role in the exciting climate science discussion. So, heart-felt congratulations to one of my heroes!

Antarctic Sea Ice On Steroids…A Behemoth…Sets Quantum All-Time Record High Extent!
Antarctic Sea Ice On Turbo-Steroids…Mutates To A Behemoth…Sets Quantam All-Time Record High Extent!
In track and field a sprinter setting a new world record in the 100 or 200-meter dash by a few hundredths of a second is already considered a sensation. Now imagine a sprinter breaking the 100 or 200-meter dash record by a whole half second, or a pole-vaulter beating the old record not by an inch or two, which would be spectacular, but by an entire foot! That would be unworldly and observers would call it a mutation leap forward. Antarctic sea ice takes a mutation leap. Source: Cryosphere This is precisely what has just happened with sea ice growth at the South Pole around Antarctica. Not only was last year’s all-time high sea ice record beaten this year, but smashed it by such a wide a margin that is meteorologically unworldly. If anyone is searching for a sign of a “tipping point”, this could be one. Unfortunately the tip seems to be in the opposite direction! At least week’s Saturday Summary, Joe Bastardi even compared the South Pole’s new record to King Kong belting a 700-foot home run out of the ballpark. Not wanting to get too carried away, we have to keep in mind that we are looking here at the satellite record only, which goes back to 1979. Yet, it is still truly amazing by any standard. Of course everyone’s question now is: Why has this happened? Unfortunately no one has an answer or even plausible hypotheses. It is mysterious. What is clear, however, is that once again alarmist global warming climatologists, who 10 years ago predicted a meltdown was imminent, are embarrassed and speechless. The same can be said about the media. Never has the consensus been so unsettled.
