That\u2019s an increase of 0.29 extra extreme flip days per century! The number of extreme cold-to-warm flips increased from about 1.43 flips per year in 1961 to a colossal 1.51 flips per year in 2023 (Fig 1b). That\u2019s an increase of 0.12 extreme flip days per century. With that kind of change I don\u2019t know how life could possibly adjust (tongue-in-cheek humor).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While the authors may be able to show statistical significance of these frequency trends, in reality they are meteorologically and physically insignificant to the point where no human, animal, or plant would even notice the change (even if such change was real).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to the flip frequency, the authors claim that the transition duration is decreasing too. This is the time it takes in days to go from a warm extreme to a cold extreme (or vice-versa). In the graphs it appears the average flip between extremes takes a little over four days or roughly 100 hours. After a whole century of warming the average flip between extremes would be about 2.5 hours less based on their trend lines (Figs 1e, 1f). Again, this change is entirely meaningless as is the intensity increase of 0.15 standard deviations per century (Figs 1c, 1d).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On top of the meaningless trends in observed extreme temperature flips, there are several questionable aspects of the study that raise red flags for concern. For starters, why did the authors begin their analyses in 1961? The temperature datasets that they used in the study all go back much further than 1961 (e.g., 1940 for the ECMWF ERA5 reanalysis dataset, 1940 for the NCEP\/NCAR reanalysis dataset, and 1850 for Berkeley Earth). So why not start the trend in 1940, for example, in line with when the reanalysis data sets begin? Maybe it\u2019s because the trends disappeared or reversed when longer datasets are utilized? Interestingly, although the 1961-2023 data shows a tiny increase in flip frequency, the data since 1980 shows absolutely no trend according to their charts in (Figs 1a and 1b). So it\u2019s quite possible the 1961 start date was cherry picked to show a positive trend in flip frequency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But wait, there\u2019s more! The authors apply CMIP6 climate model simulations using four different emission scenarios out to 2100 (see Figure 2a to 2f below). Under SSP5-8.5 and SSP3-7.0 scenarios the authors show roughly a 7% increase in the frequency and intensity of flips between extreme warm and extreme cold temperatures (and vice-versa) by the end of this century. Accompanying those results is the usual appeal to emotions that these flips will disproportionately affect poorer nations. Nonetheless, both of those high emission scenarios have been recently declared unrealistic by the IPCC. Under more realistic emission scenarios that were tested by the authors, no meaningful trends in extreme flips are shown out to 2100. What\u2019s even more interesting is that the historical climate model simulation from 1961 to 2023 that they use as a baseline actually shows a slightly declining frequency of extreme temperature flips during this period (Figs 2a, 2b, gray curve), which is contrary to their observational study in Figure 1 that showed a tiny increase.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"671\" data-attachment-id=\"445459\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/climatescience.press\/?attachment_id=445459\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/image-153.png?fit=640%2C671&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"640,671\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"image\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/image-153.png?fit=640%2C671&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/image-153.png?resize=640%2C671&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-445459\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/image-153.png?w=640&amp;ssl=1 640w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/image-153.png?resize=286%2C300&amp;ssl=1 286w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Figure 2.
