From CFACT<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

By\u00a0Joe Bastardi<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

From the\u00a0Washington Post (WAPO)<\/em>\u00a0comes an article entitled, \u201cHeat and smoke are smothering most of the U.S., putting lives at risk\u201dMost of the country??????\u00a0 We have another large area of smoke moving through after a week of very clean air, but it\u2019s clear even with this latest burst, much more of the nation has no smoke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In fact, last Sunday, check out the sky at my house, which is unreal to see a June sky this blue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

But expect more smoke to spill into Midwestern and Eastern states today from Canada\u2019s wildfires. Air quality alerts covered 20 states yesterday.Attributing Canadian wildfires to climate change is a joke 1) Canada has been getting COLDER IN THE SPRING THE LAST 10 YEARS, THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT WOULD BE CAUSING MORE WILDFIRES.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

One year of warm and dry does not a climate change trend make. Wildfires are down in Canada overall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The heat: Dangerous temperatures are hitting Texas and other Southern states. In the West, California is bracing for its first major heat wave of the year.Dangerous??? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Walking across the street is dangerous if you don\u2019t look. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For anyone with common sense riding a subway in NYC is much more dangerous than going outside. Do these people have any idea what has happened before? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dallas hit 113 on June 26, 27, 28, 1980. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The normal high is way up in the 90s now, anyway. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A normal day in Dallas in the summer is a heat wave in Detroit or NYC. It\u2019s the south. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If anything, given the fact we have air conditioning and a much better water supply and health facilities, it just takes a lick of common sense to realize that it\u2019s hot out and too much middle-of-the-day exertion is a problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But that is why I wrote\u00a0this last blog<\/a>. I wrote it because of the Marxist-like distortion and propaganda that is going on in the weaponization of weather in the phony climate war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am picking on the\u00a0Washington Post<\/em>\u00a0here because this was in my inbox this morning but look at this from another source that uses weather hysteria to push an agenda.\u201c<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over the past 10 days, in particular, the country has seen record-breaking temperatures, topping 113 degrees F in some places\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So let\u2019s look at the last 10 days for the: \u201ccountry\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

That area of extreme heat is less than 5% of the population of the US!\u00a0 June has been the 2nd or 3rd coolest month max temp-wise this century for the US!!\u00a0 We are averaging 1.6 below normal for High temps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This was only exceeded by 2019 (a shock to me, as just three years ago, I thought the heat was out of control).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The heat over the next few days will mean 2003 winds up beating it. But the point is another adjective, given the practice in the Marxist Soviet Union by their press, can be tacked on to the weather weaponization in this phony climate war: It\u2019s now Marxist meteo misinformation media, as any meteorologist, no matter what his stance on CAGW, can point out examples of counters to the one-sided stuff that comes out, similar to what we saw in any state-controlled press.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BTW what good does it do you? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And I am talking to writers who parrot each other to keep simply repeating what the other source is saying. Why should I read your site? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is your prose better? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You give no information other than what everyone else does. Let\u2019s just combine all of you, cut jobs to save money, and have one site.\u00a0 You can become the Pravda of old but have no ear. Those of you who are laid off will be employed if only to sweep the streets like in the old Soviet Union with next-to-no unemployment.\u00a0 If you wish to actually draw people to your site, why don\u2019t you show things that may actually tweak their curiosity and individuality unless, of course, your agenda is the opposite? But once you have won, there will be nothing left for you. You may think you will be part of the grand ruling elite, and yes, some of you will, but many will find out about the heartbreak of being just like all the rest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So we have Hunter\u2019s Laptop but that goes with this, which simply\u00a0covers up what is going on ther<\/a>e.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

and that is\u00a0linked to this<\/a>,\u00a0which is Marxism 101.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then of course, comes the\u00a0Washington Post\u2019s<\/em>\u00a0conclusion \u2013<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why is this happening? Climate change helps shape these extreme weather events. And they will probably get worse in years to come.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well, let me ask this question. Are you aware we just had back-to-back the coldest May\/June on record in the Arctic on the Danish Meteorological Institute site? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Coldest at a warm time of the year. They have been keeping records since 1958. It is your propaganda that has made such a big deal about the Arctic. How is it that summers are not getting any warmer, just winters? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Which point at WV, not co2.\u00a0 You are a climate writer, right? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do you look at Saturation mixing ratios and ever ask yourself, gee, why do you have that for water vapor and temperature but not co2?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Arctic temps ARE NOT WARMING at the warmest time of the year, the only time of the year when it barely gets to freezing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Since summer maxes are barely above freezing, how the heck are you going to melt the ice cap if it can\u2019t get above freezing for more than a handful of days? Did that ever occur to you when all this arctic ice disappearing was being spouted? In typical Marxist fashion, the state-pushed media does\u00a0 NOT acknowledge mistakes. Ever seen the Old Soviet Union acknowledge the disaster of their 5-year plans before their collapse or the Maoist regime acknowledge the misery of the Great Leap Forward? Most Germans had no idea the holocaust was going on.\u00a0 In each case, people who were writing the missive either turned a blind eye to it or did not look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And what of Greenland? Looking up there?\u00a0 How do you explain this<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

next 15 days of snow, this is not likely to reverse course<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Do you even look at the link between underwater Geothermal activity and ocean temps since the ocean supplies the water vapor that can cause the warming where and when we see it and also contribute to increased co2<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Here is the explanation from Dr. Arthur Viteritos, \u201cAs you can see, the \u201cgoodness of fit\u201d is excellent. Expressed numerically, the correlation between the mid-ocean seismic activity and heat content is 0.89 and the coefficient of determination (i.e., the correlation squared) is .794. What that means is that mid-ocean seismic activity, our proxy for geothermal heat release, is explaining 79.4% of the variation in the oceanic heat content!!! That is remarkably high, and, according to the regression model, the odds that this high of a correlation is occurring by \u2018chance\u2019 is .00000000000000104%.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You are doing the same thing people did in totalitarian regimes with weather and climate. And it is systemic throughout.\u00a0 The reason there is polarization is because there is one side that will try to show a counter and another that will not allow it. So the so-called climate fight is not about climate or weather, but freedom vs authoritarianism. And for what has become a meteo misinformation media that, whether they know it or not, is using Marxist tactics in their writing, let us call it as it is, which is what one-sided totalitarian regimes do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once a purpose is served, the person serving that purpose is no longer needed by the state.\u00a0 \u00a0You remember that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
