    Dry, cloudy and blowing a hoolie, 13C...So not all mild weather is boring!?️
  2. Methuselah
    Your right enough, John, we sometimes (given our easy access to modern-day modelling) forget how frustrating it was, back then... I can still remember coming out in goose-pimples as the legendary Jack Scott gave a monthly forecast of 'very cold weather with showers or longer periods of snow' only for mild SW winds to take over, a mere three days later. I was gutted!

    Who writes these things?
  4. Methuselah
    And here, so as to better relate with PerfectStorm's post, is the actual chart for November 15 1978: quite an evolution?
  5. Methuselah
    And here, for comparison, is the chart for November 7 1978, when I doubt many folks knew what was coming?
  6. Methuselah
    No probs, Paul...
  7. Methuselah
    You've been 'called names'? It looks to me as if you are the one guilty of name-calling, MIA: any technical scientists who happen not to share your world view are labelled 'political appointees'...
  8. Methuselah
    I thought Oumuamua played for Man U?
  9. Methuselah
    And why would anyone having an understanding of climate put one or two warm days down to climate change? Another straw man perhaps, AW?
  10. Methuselah
    I can't wait for NW's upcoming snow-chasing trips to Day 10...I have my ticket already!
  11. Methuselah
    I do believe that, in all honesty, it was your good self who claimed that the data presented by NASA and NOAA were bogus...'added', 'altered'?
  12. Methuselah
    And what on Earth has an arguably deranged scientist's personal opinion on the fecundity of The Great Barrier Reef got to do with the Meteorological Office's report on temperatures here in the UK? Are you trying to force the mods into closing the thread?
  13. Methuselah
    I don't think it does, BFTV; but those who keep posting bogus data do...
  14. Methuselah
    So what, pray, can you possibly hope to gain from pretending to present recorded data, when knowing full-well that no such data exist?
  15. Methuselah
    Forgive me for seeming so obtuse, but how can locations 'that have no temperature-recording equipment', have real recorded data?
  16. Methuselah
    But, according to you, NASA have added one degree to past temperatures...?
  17. Methuselah
    But that would make the current warming curve appear less steep than it actually is. Why would they do that, if they were in the business of exaggerating global warming? Oh, sorry tablet - they've (allegedly) subtracted one degree. Even more bizarre. All we ask is that you provide proper peer-reviewed evidence that backs-up your claims. That's all.
  18. Methuselah
    That might be because the Beeb don't get their forecasts from the Met Office anymore, Mark?
  19. Methuselah
    And you know that (and can prove that) how, exactly?
  20. Methuselah
    Thanks for that, MIA... But, given the degree of uncertainty in the IPCC's (and everyone else's) predictions, and marine organisms' acute sensitivity to pH values, I'd have thought that the 'precautionary principle' might be the sensible option?
  21. Methuselah
    And here's the chart from November 6 1978...It's hardly a 'thing of beauty':
  22. Methuselah
    And yet another gratuitous allusion to others' (it's always others) implied politics... So I guess it takes a hack to know a hack. Maybe folks in glass houses shouldn't throw stones?
  23. Methuselah
    Still having some pretty warm temperatures, and still the outlook is even more uncertain than usual. Since mid-October, we've seen it go from 26C to -8C and now it's back up to around 18C...Whatever initiated the SSW seems to have ushered in a prolonged period of ruts and extremes...? It could be Fred's LIA Footprint or it could be something else entirely. But, whatever it is, it'd better last through the coming winter.
  24. Methuselah
    And therein lies your problem, MIA: for some reason (best known to you) you insist on making every subject political; it's almost as though, by the sheer will of your intellect, you can fit facts into whatever best suits your politics... There was good reason (even if it took a while for me to accept it) why the politics area was closed down, so please refrain from bring it over here..?
  25. Methuselah
    That's why I posted a chart from November 4 1978, that looked a lot like some of today's: the fact that two charts (from different years) happen to appear very similar, doesn't in any way indicate a similar evolution..? I guess it's a kind of entropy: for each evolution we'd like to see happen, there is an infinite number of wronguns...if you wait for the wind to blow you up a quick sandcastle, you'll be in for a very long wait indeed!
