Via The Australian<\/a>: Cliff Mass, professor of Atmospheric Sciences at University of Washington, said the public was being \u201cmisinformed on a massive scale<\/a>\u201d: \u201cIt\u2018s terrible. I think it\u2019s a disaster. There\u2019s a stunning amount of exaggeration and hype of extreme weather and heatwaves, and it\u2019s very counter-productive,\u201d he told The Australian in an interview. \u201cI\u2019m not a contrarian. I\u2018m pretty mainstream in a very large [academic] department, and I think most of these claims are unfounded and problematic\u201d. …<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Professor Mass said the climate was \u201cradically warmer\u201d around 1000 years ago during what\u2019s known as the Medieval Warm Period, when agriculture thrived in parts of now ice-covered Greenland. \u201cIf you really go back far enough there were swamps near the North Pole, and the other thing to keep in mind is that we\u2018re coming out of a cold period, a Little Ice Age from roughly 1600 to 1850\u201d.#<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

John Christy, a professor of Atmospheric Sciences at the University of Alabama at Huntsville, said heatwaves in the first half of the 20th century were at least as intense as those of more recent decades based on consistent, long-term weather stations going back over a century. \u201cI haven\u2018t seen anything yet this summer that\u2019s an all-time record for these long-term stations, 1936 still holds by far the record for the most number of stations with the hottest-ever temperatures,\u201d he told The Australian, referring to the year of a great heatwave in North America that killed thousands.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Professor Christy said an explosion of the number of weather stations in the US and around the world had made historical comparisons difficult because some stations only went back a few years; meanwhile, creeping urbanization had subjected existing weather stations to additional heat. \u201cIn Houston, for example, in the centre it is now between 6 and 9 degrees Fahrenheit warmer than the surrounding countryside,\u201d he explained in an interview with The Australian.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

AUGUST 2, 2023<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two of America\u2019s top climate scientists have rubbished claims July was the hottest month on record, deploring a \u201cstunning amount of exaggeration and hype\u201d surrounding the\u00a0UN Secretary-General\u2019s statement last week\u00a0<\/a>that \u201cthe era of global boiling [had] arrived.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cliff Mass, professor of Atmospheric Sciences at University of Washington, said the public was being \u201cmisinformed on a massive scale<\/a>\u201d following a deluge of news reports that summer\u00a0heatwaves in the US and Europe<\/a>\u00a0had pushed July\u2019s average temperature above 17 degrees, and allegedly to the highest level in 120,000 years. UN<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2018s terrible. I think it\u2019s a disaster. There\u2019s a stunning amount of exaggeration and hype of extreme weather and heatwaves, and it\u2019s very counter-productive,\u201d he told The Australian in an interview.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019m not a contrarian. I\u2018m pretty mainstream in a very large [academic] department, and I think most of these claims are unfounded and problematic\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

John Christy, a professor of Atmospheric Sciences at the University of Alabama at Huntsville, said heatwaves in the first half of the 20th century were at least as intense as those of more recent decades based on consistent, long-term weather stations going back over a century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI haven\u2018t seen anything yet this summer that\u2019s an all time record for these long term stations, 1936 still holds by far the record for the most number of stations with the hottest ever temperatures,\u201d he told The Australian, referring to the year of a great heatwave in North America that killed thousands.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Professor Christy said an explosion of the number of weather stations in the US and around the world had made historical comparisons difficult because some stations only went back a few years; meanwhile, creeping urbanisation had subjected existing weather stations to additional heat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIn Houston, for example, in the centre it is now between 6 and 9 degrees Fahrenheit warmer than the surrounding countryside,\u201d he explained in an interview with The Australian.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Major newspapers from the Washington Post to the London Times have reported July as the hottest month on record after the average global daily temperature last month surpassed 17 C \u2013 around 1.5 degrees above pre-industrial levels \u2013\u00a0based on satellite data<\/a>\u00a0compiled by the University of Maine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019re just really starting to see climate change kick in,\u201d Nathan Lenssen, a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Colorado,\u00a0told the Washington Post<\/a>\u00a0last month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Karsten Haustein, a climate scientist at Leipzig University,\u00a0told the Times<\/a>\u00a0that July was \u201coutrageously warm\u201d and may have been the warmest month since the Eemian interglacial period, about 120,000 years ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Growing concern about higher temperatures caused by humans has underpinned a global push to slash carbon dioxide emissions by 2050 by phasing out fossil fuels in favour of solar and wind power, fuelling major political and scientific debates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHot enough for you? Thank a MAGA Republican.\u00a0Or better yet, vote them out of office,\u201d tweeted former Democrat presidential candidate Hillary Clinton last week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The IMF cancelled a scheduled talk by Nobel prize winner John Clauser last week after he publicly stated: \u201cI can confidently say there is no real climate crisis, and that climate change does not cause extreme weather events.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Professor Christy, conceding a slight warming trend over the last 45 years, said July could be the warmest month on record based on global temperatures measured by satellites \u2013 \u201cjust edging out 1998\u201d \u2013 but such measures only went back to 1979.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIf you really go back far enough there were swamps near the North Pole, and the other thing to keep in mind is that we\u2018re coming out of a cold period, a Little Ice Age from roughly 1600 to 1850\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGlobal warming, it\u2018s a serious issue, but it\u2019s a slow issue, it\u2019s not an existential threat,\u201d he added, suggesting human activities may have added up to one degree Celsius to average temperatures since the 1980s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No, the Earth Did Not have an \u2018Unprecedented and Terrifying \u2026 All-Time High Temperature\u2019 on July 4th \u2013 Not the hottest in 100,000 years \u2013 NOAA & AP back away from claim<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Meteorologist Anthony Watts: On July 3rd<\/sup>\u00a0and 4th<\/sup>\u00a0and the following days, multiple mainstream media outlets ran stories claiming that the Earth had experienced an unprecedented hot day(s). This is false. The data they cited was not official data, but from a private website and investigation shows the claim was a gross error.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apparently, all those people missed the fact that they were looking at the output of a\u00a0climate model<\/em>, not actually measured temperatures. Only one news outlet,\u00a0The Associated Press<\/em>, bothered to print a sensible caveat\u2026The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration distanced itself from the designation, compiled by the University of Maine\u2019s\u00a0Climate Reanalyzer<\/a>, which uses satellite data and computer simulations to measure the world\u2019s condition\u2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The AP updated its story on July 7th to include this single yet very important paragraph: \u201cNOAA, whose figures are considered the gold standard in climate data, said in a statement Thursday that it cannot validate the unofficial numbers. It noted that the reanalyzer uses model output data, which it called \u2018not suitable\u2019 as substitutes for actual temperatures and climate records. The agency monitors global temperatures and records on a monthly and an annual basis, not daily.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, in the space of two days, we went from temperature data that was \u201c[t]otally unprecedented and terrifying,\u201d to temperature data that was not suitable for purpose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is merely the product of a micro climate. There is also a second issue here.

Marc Morano:\u00a0<\/strong>\u201cThis is not outside the normal bounds of hot summer weather. Yes, it\u2019s a record year.
