Beam me to Planet Gore !
And we just has one of the coolest Augusts on record here in Virginia.
Hmmmmmm.
It’s about to go nova!
A spotless Sun. McCain should have picked it as his Vice-Presidential candidate.
It’s Bush’s fault!
Notice how once again, the gov’t ‘expert’ James hathaway cooks the data to call a tiny speck a sunspot. He and Hansen are both gov’t paid glaobal warming zealots who will cook the books and revise data to fit their global warming agenda.. Hathaway is a gov’t scientist with NOAA.
“Article Update, Sep 1 2008. After this story was published, the NOAA reversed their previous decision on a tiny speck seen Aug 21, which gives their version of the August data a half-point. Other observation centers such as Mount Wilson Observatory are still reporting a spotless month. So depending on which center you believe, August “was a record for either a full century, or only 50 years.
WOW!
Who would have thought that acitvity on our Solar System’s SUN would affect the climate here on earth?
...and why do they call it a “Solar” System anyway?
Nope, sorry Sting. There is not.
Actually, sunspot data has been collected since at least the 1600s. The Maunder Minimum was from 1645-1715.
Summer under suspension
Pencil it in for later, after a couple of wet, chilly days

P-I REPORTERLook outside. August left. November arrived.
September and October were no-shows.
Will summer return?
Considering that the growing season was shortened by the coldest and gloomiest start to June since records have been kept, when snowplows were called out to open the mountain passes, the short answer to the question:
Yeah.
"We still have hopefully another month of summer with a little interruption for the next couple of days -- it will get people ready for fall earlier," said Art Gaebel, a meteorologist at the National Weather Service office in Seattle's Sand Point neighborhood.
Steady rain and gusty winds are expected to drench the area Wednesday before turning to showers Wednesday evening with temperatures in the high 60s...

Women, children hardest hit....
Never underestimate the ability of these people to lie, there are trillions of $$ and a religion at stake. No matter how cold it gets they will just make up whatever numbers they need to in order to keep the AGW gravy train going
Just look at there numbers for JULY
Who cares about what Al Gore things? What does Jor-el think?
I love the way you named it the Gore/Hansen Minimum!
Just be careful what u wish for. Global cooling = less precip, of all kinds.
Global cooling is a bad thing en toto.
On the other hand, we can make firm conclusions about CO2 effects on climate with no data at all.
Regarding this news, and the obvious natural basis of the current “warming period”; when is it usually the “coldest” part of winter and the “hottest” part of summer? Answer, when the cold, or hot part of the cycle is peaking and the trend is beginning to move in the opposite direction.
We - humans on earth - have been in a centuries long “warming” period, and certainly, now, as that trend nears it’s end, it would seem “hotter and getting hotter”, than ever before (in OUR memories). Its the natural nature of cycles; not human activity.
