CLIMATE CHANGE: OUR ‘GREATEST CHALLENGE’? – ‘Events in 2013 showed just how cut off from reality climate-change alarmists have become’

Share the facts at CFACT's Climate Depot: http://www.climatedepot.com/

Cold Hard Facts: It may be summer in Antarctica, but a group of scientists on a global warming expedition were dealt an ironic twist after their ship became stranded due to exceptionally thick sea ice. Several ships were forced to avert rescue attempts after also running into adverse conditions. A helicopter was finally deployed in a last-ditch effort to pick up the 52 passengers stranded for 10 days.

All this embarrassment could have been avoided if the crew had simply looked at the facts: Antarctica continues to mount record after record for sea ice expansion, and the globe is cooling – a development not projected by climate models. But environmental alarmists don't hinge their efforts on facts, which explains this week's other climate news: A new study is warning, according to The Telegraph, that “the world's climate is warming faster than feared because previous predictions were too 'optimistic' and overestimated the cooling impact of clouds.” To which we ask: In what world?

Next storm will bring 'mother lode' of freezing temps

By Erik Ortiz, Staff Writer, NBC News

Consider Friday’s big chill a mere warm-up act: This weekend will bring a deep freeze that could prove fatal for the ill-equipped.
As a new storm slogs across the Midwest on Sunday into Monday, states such as Illinois, Minnesota and Wisconsin will see lows in the minus teens and minus 20s. And with sub-zero winds whipping through some areas, it could feel more like the minus 50s and minus 60s, meteorologists warn.
“It’s the mother lode of cold air,” said Weather Channel coordinating meteorologist Tom Moore. “On the heels of what will be the coldest air of the season, will be dangerous, life-threatening winds.”
Snow is expected to begin falling throughout the Midwest on Sunday, also reaching parts of Tennessee and Alabama. Along the East Coast, the storm will bring rain but be accompanied by warmer weather.


Moore said Midwesterners should take extra precaution because of the arctic front that will paralyze the region.

NBC's Al Roker has the latest weather forecast.

“Anybody living out on the streets needs to be rounded up and put into a shelter,” Moore said. “The repercussions for not could be deadly, and I’m afraid we’re going to see cases like that.”
Minnesota isn’t taking any chances on Monday. Gov. Mark Dayton said all public schools will be closed for the day.
Minneapolis will see a high of minus-14 degrees and a low of minus-27 degrees through Monday — but with the wind chill it would feel like the minus-40s.
“The safety of Minnesota’s schoolchildren must be our first priority,” Dayton said in a statement. “I have made this decision to protect all our children from the dangerously cold temperatures now forecasted for next Monday. I encourage Minnesotans of all ages to exercise caution in these extreme weather conditions.”
Temperatures won’t be any better in Chicago, which will come close to a high of minus-11 degrees — a record mark previously reached in December 1983 and January 1994.

John Makely / NBC News / Commuters are bundled against the cold weather as they arrive at New York's Penn Station.

Perhaps the most foolhardy will be football fans in Wisconsin. Sunday’s NFC wild-card game between the Green Bay Packers and the San Francisco 49ers will play out in bone-chilling minus-5-degree temperatures.
Meanwhile, cities across the mid-Atlantic to the Northeast — walloped by Thursday night’s snowstorm — will see milder temperatures with rain Sunday into Monday. New York City will see highs in the lower 40s. Boston, digging out from as much as two feet of snow, could reach 50 degrees.
But then another frigid plunge is forecast for Tuesday: the Big Apple is expected to see a high of around 10 degrees, while Philadelphia and Boston will be in the teens.
Don't despair, Moore said, there's a silver lining: warming temperatures by the end of next week.
“We’re going to see a moderating trend as a whole,” he added.

Throughout the Northeast, the side roads remain the biggest trouble areas. NBC's Tom Costello reports.

Latest storm likely to make the 2010s the snowiest decade in the east coast in the NOAA record – surpassing the 1960s!

Latest storm likely to make the 2010s the snowiest decade in the east in the NOAA record
By Joseph D’Aleo, CCM (Certified Consulting Meteorologist)
It was quite a storm. I have never seen Logan Airport report heavy snow with an air temperature of 1F (not wind chill) before. The ended up with 15.1 inches. Boxford had 23.8 inches.
Even as more cold and snow invades the central, near the east coast, the post storm blues have set in with the inevitability of an inside runner following rapidly on its heels. But snow loving friends, we have lived through quite a decade and the millennium so far has been a boon to snow lovers despite the continuing claims that snows are becoming rare and hurting winter sports as erroneously reported last week in Boston Magazine.
We here are using NOAA’s own NESIS scale – which we used to call the Kocin/Uccellini storms.
The Northeast Snowfall Impact Scale (NESIS)
Overview
While the Fujita and Saffir-Simpson Scales characterize tornadoes and hurricanes respectively, there is no widely used scale to classify snowstorms. The Northeast Snowfall Impact Scale (NESIS) developed by Paul Kocin and Louis Uccellini of the National Weather Service (Kocin and Uccellini, 2004) characterizes and ranks high-impact Northeast snowstorms. These storms have large areas of 10 inch snowfall accumulations and greater. NESIS has five categories: Extreme, Crippling, Major, Significant, and Notable. The index differs from other meteorological indices in that it uses population information in addition to meteorological measurements. Thus NESIS gives an indication of a storm’s societal impacts. This scale was developed because of the impact Northeast snowstorms can have on the rest of the country in terms of transportation and economic impact.
NESIS scores are a function of the area affected by the snowstorm, the amount of snow, and the number of people living in the path of the storm. The diagram below illustrates how NESIS values are calculated within a geographical information system (GIS). The aerial distribution of snowfall and population information are combined in an equation that calculates a NESIS score which varies from around one for smaller storms to over ten for extreme storms. The raw score is then converted into one of the five NESIS categories. The largest NESIS values result from storms producing heavy snowfall over large areas that include major metropolitan centers. For details on how NESIS scores are calculated at the National Climatic Data Center, see Squires and Lawrimore (2006).

They had added the mid December storm to the Northeast NESIS list as a category 2 (Significant) event.

This week’s storm was at least as impactful and covered a wide stretch back to the Midwest.

If it joins the NESIS list, it will be storm 49 and make the 2010s the snowiest decade for the east coast in the record, surpassing the 1960s.

Enlarged
Of course we are just beginning the 4th year of the decade. Also note that 21 of the 49 have been this millennium.

• ‘Thousands of trees will have to be planted to offset the carbon footprint from the prolonged Antarctic ship rescue effort’'The expedition had pledged to plant about 800 kauri trees in Northland to cover its carbon footprint. Environmentalists believe planting trees helps to offset the impact of burning fuels such as diesel. But former Act Party leader and Herald on Sunday columnist Rodney Hide said that would have to increase to about 5000 trees to make up for the fossil fuels burned in the rescue. Expedition leader Chris Turney said more trees would be needed than earlier estimated but he was yet to work out how many.'
  

• New York Mag: ‘Obama’s Second Term Is All About Climate Change’'The State Department today released its Climate Action Report, which reconfirms the administration’s commitment to issue new regulations of existing power plants, and further argues that such a plan could bring the U.S. into compliance with its international greenhouse gas reductions. Kerry has already negotiated an agreement with China to phase out hydrofluorocarbons. After the EPA’s regulations come out, the next step is for Kerry to negotiate the next international climate accord in 2015. As Brad Plumer correctly notes, with characteristic pessimism, a climate treaty is merely a necessary but insufficient step toward averting catastrophic climate change, with more reductions necessary. But that necessary first step is exactly what Obama is doing everything in his power to take with his remaining time.'
  

What Catastrophe? MIT Climate Scientist Dr. Richard Lindzen, the unalarmed climate scientist “We all agree that temperature has increased since 1800,” he tells me. There’s a caveat, though: It’s increased by “a very small amount. We’re talking about tenths of a degree [Celsius]. We all agree that CO2 is a greenhouse gas. All other things kept equal, [there has been] some warming. As a result, there’s hardly anyone serious who says that man has no role. And in many ways, those have never been the questions. The questions have always been, as they ought to be in science, how much?”

• Former Physics Prof. Howard C. Hayden of U. of Connecticut ridicules man-made climate fears and alleged ‘consensus’ as ‘groupthink’'Prof. Hayden points out that temperature is affected by so many variables; from sunshine to cloud cover to deforestation to how much snow is on the ground reflecting back into space. The mountain pine beetle, which has killed millions of acres of trees in the Rocky Mountains, has caused changes in reflectivity and the evaporation rate of water on the ground, too. Even the Earth’s orbit affects temperature. All of those factors, plus countless others, are called positive and negative terms. The climate models just need to miss one single term to throw off the accuracy, Hayden said. “Now you begin to see the absurdity of it all,” he said. “There’s something like 83 different models for climate — obviously at least 82 have to be wrong because they all disagree with one another.” Hayden points to the billions of dollars that have been spent on climate research by people with vested interests in the outcome of that research.'

Whether the secretary of state can have that kind of influence remains an open question, and Mr. Kerry, despite two decades of attention to climate policy, has few concrete accomplishments on the issue. The climate bills he sponsored as a senator failed. At the United Nations climate summit meeting in Copenhagen in 2009, Mr. Kerry, then a senator from Massachusetts, labored behind the scenes to help President Obama broker a treaty that yielded pledges from countries to cut their emissions but failed to produce legally binding commitments. “He’s had a lot of passion, but I don’t think you can conclude he’s had any success,” said Senator John McCain, Republican of Arizona, who has worked on climate legislation with Mr. Kerry in the past.'
