New study suggests global warming decreases storm activity and extreme weather

A paper published January 21st in Quaternary Science Reviews reconstructs storm activity in Iceland over the past 1,200 years and finds storminess and extreme weather variability was far more common during the Little Ice Age in comparison to the Medieval Warm Period and the 20th century. The paper adds to many other peer-reviewed publications finding global warming decreases storm activity, the opposite of claims by climate alarmists....

Sounds like they are changing the rules again to accommodate for failed predictions.

I have stopped trying to reason with global warming cultist and now I just mock them.

Give it a rest..

[Raebie]

For god’s sake, make up your minds. Lol.

Global cooling decreases global warming.

[bray]

Then shouldn’t we want more Global Warming or cooling or climate change or Marxism whatever the scare-d-jour is?

Weather.

[Inyo-Mono]

Exactly.

The warmists constantly move the goal posts to fit their agenda.

[Signalman]

How much more global warming will it take before we all freeze to death?

.... I wonder how long it will be before well funded scientists discover the astounding fact that it gets “Cold” in the winter and “Hot” in the summer?

My study shows Global Warming believers are idiots.

[Chode]

yeah, right...

[Wonder Warthog]

Sheesh. Anyone who has bothered to study HISTORY knows this. Periods of “warm” were times of prosperity and expansion, and periods of “cold” were times of scarcity, famine, and disease.

Let's look at the one substantiated fact of warm periods in history: The periods of greatest human progress have all been clearly identifiable warm periods. The spread of Christianity, the great explorations, the Enlightenment following the Dark Ages, The Medieval Warm Period, the growth of the Industrial Revolution and the spread of high technology, communication and food production have all happened during warm periods.

Yep, the book “The Little Ice Age” spells it out pretty well and it was written by a warmist. Another thing that generally comes with cold is droughts.

Same here. They cannot be reasoned with.

[Right Wing Assault]

I wouldn’t think Iceland would be a great model for weather in the rest of the world.

Two Rules About Global Warming (Sarcasm)

1 - Record Setting Cold Temperatures:
Snow or ice does not disprove the existence of Global Warming. They are just anecdotal evidence of a temporary condition and cannot be regarded as valid indicators.

2 - Record Setting Warm Temperatures:
Drought, rain, storms, melting ice, or other unusual conditions are undeniable empirical evidence that man caused Global Warming is destroying the planet, and maybe even the entire galaxy.
