Cold Winters Caused by Warmer Summers, Research Suggests

Here in the HOT Inland Empire area of So. California we aren’t experiencing the sustained triple digits in the Summer months that we did in the 1990’s. We have a few days of the triple digit heat unlike weeks, months at a time during the early to mid 1990’s. It is NOT uncommon to see sustained heat in the 90-99 degree range however, but NOT the triple digits like we had back then.

It’s definitely cooler weather now than ten years ago.

Winter seems to be consistant with So. Cal Winters as I’ve experienced them my entire life being a native So. Calif. person. Rain goes in ten-eleven year cycles. This year shouldn’t be a very exciting rain year if the weather cycles theory is correct.

There was an internet article a while ago about global warming at the end of the Permian Period being caused by an increase in activity at the earth’s core with a lot of volcanic activity and eruptions and the release of gases into the atmosphere.

If humans contribute anything to global temperatures, its MINIMAL. The most effect is from sunlight, the interior and other causes not immediately apparent to us at this stage of our knowledge.

I grew up in the 1950’s and we have VERY severe winters and very hot summers.
THEN, in the late 1960’s the winters and summers began to get milder and did so until recently and then got more severe and now they appear to be getting milder again.

There can be a better argument that odd numbered decades have bad weather. You had the dirty thirties (Dust Bowl). After that you had the filthy fifties, where droughts were almost as bad as the 30s. Then in the stormy seventies you had the record blizzards across the country and everyone was sure we were having a new ice age. Finally in the 90s we had the advent of all the Global Warming hysteria. Well we are now two years into the current odd numbered decade and once again the weather is getting strange.

Interesting.

Ten Year cycles.

So, even if that line of thinking is true - warmer summers are helping create colder winters - then, with the concept that snow-cover reflects more sunlight, helping to make it cooler, then with less snow cover in the arctic but more snow cover further south, then isn’t nature just self-rebalancing the warming and cooling affects?

Volcanic eruption contributes to more or less (depending on where it is) absorption of the Sun’s energy. All significant energy absorbed by our atmosphere is from the Sun. If the Sun died, we would very quickly freeze to death.

Then there is the new issue of Cosmic Rays, but again that has to do with absorption/retention of the Sun’s energy. Cosmic rays do affect cloud cover.

Long & Short of it, AGW is a “watermelon environmentalist” Lie.....

Think it has anything to do with the sunspot eleven year cycle?

Of should I just ignore the big flaming ball of gas in the sky when it comes to the warming and cooling of the earth?

[GonzoGOP]

Ten Year cycles.

Actually it is a 20 year cycle with ten years of mild weather followed by ten years of volatile weather. Sometimes hot, sometimes cold, but always more volatile than the norm.

If it was an eleven year cycle it would make sense. The sun has a definite eleven year cycle. But the two cycles don't match up long term so there must be something else going on.

Whatever it is it isn't man made. It has been going on for too long. There just wasn't enough industrialization back in the 1930s to account for this kind of changes, and the 30s and the super cold winter of 41 were bigger than the modern fluctuations. Something the warmers don't like to mention.

Actually if you look at history. Winter(cold weather) has always followed summer(hot weather).

I thought it was the other way around.

Here, in Northern Michigan, on Lake Michigan, we just got our first measurable snowfall yesterday, Jan.12. Very mild autumn, and two days ago it was 50 degrees in Traverse City.
Try letting these genius scientists(?) forecast what the weather will be like for the rest of the winter, instead of twenty years from now when a lot of us will be gone.

Just brought that up in another post. It is so obvious that it is the first thing everyone but a dedicated warmer looks at. However they don't line up long term. And in any case that is an eleven year cycle as opposed to a 20 year cycle unless there is some mechanism where it only fires on every other cycle there has to be some other cycle at work.

The summer felt cooler to me, but you can't have it both ways.

Sure you can. It's called Global Climate Change.™

Is it warmer than average today? It is because of Global Climate Change.™

Is it colder than average? It is because of Global Climate Change.™.

Dryer? Wetter? Cloudier? Less cloudy? Windier? Less windy? It doesn't matter! No matter what the weather is, it is because of Global Climate Change.™

It's all Bush's fault. Womyn and minorities will be hardest hit.

[Jack Hydrazine]

Warm globally, cool hemispherically!

[Lonesome in Massachussets]

Is there anything Global Warming cannot do? Anthropogenic Global Warming Theory explains everything: cold, hot, warm, tepid, wet, dry, humid, arid, sunny, cloudy, fog, rain, sleet, hail, wind, calm, tides, eczema, arthritis, liver spots, sun spots, polka dots, ragged tots. AGWT is unfalsifiable, all observations confirm it at the 100% confidence level.

Yes a big Sigh.

The sh*t that will never go away.Always new ways to make "science" and big government steal our liberty and quality of life.

Algore(the father of green-ism) is an SOB!

This just in...

Dark nights are caused by bright days.

Well, obviously. If you use extra light during the day, there’s less available at night.

[dila813]

good point!

[RipSawyer]

Just remember that the moon is more important than the sun because the moon shines when you need more light and the sun only shines in the daytime when there is already plenty of light.

If these “scientists” had predicted this BEFORE it happened, I might have given them some credibility. Their hand waving and excuses AFTER the event simply exposes them and their cult as phony. They have no more credibility than Harold Camping explaining why the world didn't end last May.
