The average temperature in January 2008 was 30.5 F. This was -0.3 F cooler than the 1901-2000 (20th century) average, the 49th coolest January in 114 years. The temperature trend for the period of record (1895 to present) is 0.1 degrees Fahrenheit per decade.
2.21 inches of precipitation fell in January. This was -0.01 inches less than the 1901-2000 average, the 65th driest such month on record. The precipitation trend for the period of record (1895 to present) is -0.01 inches per decade.
However , like you said, it appears the USA is on a runaway train to full blown socialism, and MCGW doctrine is one of their favorite tools
Oddly, I have heard several people talk about how the tornados seem to convince them that there is something to the global warming stuff.....depressing how gullible people are.
Yeah, we had 1-2 ft of snow in Wisconsin yesterday and folks are blaming it on ‘climate change’ Nevermind that 9 or the last 10 snowiest days on record here occurred before 1945. Never let facts get in the way of what Saint Al and his Branch Algorians tell you.
Where do they get these decimals from? You can’t add 1 + 1 + 3 and come up with 5.2
You can if you’re a pollster — when you include the margin of error. :-)
How cold will it have to get before the Global Warming idiots admit that the earth is cooling instead of warming?
We had some snow here in Montana yesterday. This was due to climate change also. Summers are hot here, and winters change to cold and snowy.
Ignorant or Stupid; take your pick.
That’s called climate change.
Warmer temps = climate change.
Colder temps = climate change.
Get it now?
Not likely, the NOAA is in on the AGW scam.
For example, last April we were trending for the coldest April in 113 years yet magically these guys had that April as Average
I'm not a statistician but even a elementary school kid with basic knowledge of math would know that after record cold in order to "get back" to average you would need record or near record warmth to balance it out.
And even with all the record cold set last year in the southern hemisphere, the NOAA still claims 2007 was the warmest year for land temperatures.
So if anything, the January temps they are reporting are still most likely warmer than what they really were.
They are just full of it and will give which ever socialist becomes president whatever numbers they need to push AGW no matter how cold it gets.
You see no trend, I see a hockey stick and eventual catrastrophe — algore, Climate God.
There actually is a real hockey stick in sunspot measurements, see http://cc.oulu.fi/~usoskin/personal/nature02995.pdf figure 2.
