North America sees coldest winter in years
By Christian Freuer, EIKE

Unusually low temperatures have plagued Canada and the United States over the past three months. Even according to the UHI-ignoring jugglers at the NOAA, the meteorological winter was the coldest in North America since 2014.
And looking only at January and February 2022, it was “the coldest period since 1996,” NOAA added (solar minimum of cycle 22).

Taking NOAA’s data with all its glorious Urban Heat Island (UHI) bias as given, it also shows that from 2016 to 2022 (through March), a strong cooling trend prevails in the US and Canada.
Using the same dataset cited by NOAA in its most recent report (released in January 2020) and a similar 5-year period, it shows that temperatures in North America fell at a rate of 1.29°C per decade between January 2016 and February 2022.
That’s a gigantic drop in temperature, about 19 times the Earth’s official average rate of increase since 1880 – at least according to the NOAA report, “Global annual temperature has risen at an average rate of 0.07°C per decade since 1880.”

But why does the data show that North America is cooling while the planet as a whole is warming? Well, one answer might be that coverage by weather stations is very good in the U.S. and Canada, while it is very poor in much of the rest of the planet – and where coverage is thin (such as Africa and Siberia), NOAA simply estimates the temperature. This filling in of the gaps is justified by using readings from the nearest temperature stations as a proxy, but 1) this method does not provide an accurate global temperature record, since the nearest temperature station may be hundreds or even thousands of kilometers away, and 2) these stations are mostly located in cosmopolitan areas, and such areas are demonstrably subject to the heat island effect and thus naturally distort the overall picture.
When natural vegetation is replaced by buildings, sidewalks, and unwanted heat sources such as air conditioners and cars, the microclimate around a thermometer site changes. This extension of inner-city readings to entire nations is now likely the single cause of human-induced global warming.
With this guesswork, NOAA, in collaboration with a few other organizations (such as NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies), has managed to create a completely unnatural linear temperature trend that will supposedly lead to an “unprecedented climate catastrophe” in the next few months/years/decades – no one can quite agree on the time frame; But one thing you can be sure of: We will all “fry” unless we restrict free speech, overthrow democracy and capitalism, and overhaul affordable energy in favor of expensive and failed renewables (see physicist William Happer’s opinion on this here).
In summary, North America’s good thermometer coverage may constrain NOAA’s “guesses” – i.e., the continent’s cooling trend may actually give us a picture much closer to global truth (I have no other explanation). But even looking at NOAA’s raw global data – i.e., before it goes through the government agency’s heat-causing filters – a cooling trend can be seen here as well – global land and ocean temperature anomalies tend to -0.14 °C per decade over the same time period.

This global cooling is even more pronounced when looking at satellite data. Temperatures have dropped by about 0.71 °C since 2016 and are still dropping, see here.
“that temperatures in North America fell at a rate of 1.29°C per decade between January 2016 and February 2022.”
January 2016 was an unusually warm month in the UAH global average temperature. It was affected by a rare, unusually large El Nino heat release. That last one was in 1998. I’m surprise you didn’t pick February 2016, the “hottest” (anomaly) in the entire 42 year UAH record.
With a +0.28 degree C. higher anomaly than in January 2016.
And North America is not the entire world.
And we know that this is a direct result of Man Made Global Warming.

New name and new organization, or what?
EIKE — what, where?
Sorry, but I draw a blank on this.

Well all I know us that here in the UK it is bollock freezingly cold today, ten days into Spring.
Go to ventusky.com, there they have wind direction and temperatures displayed on the entire earth.
Out in the mid-Atlantic at a latitude of 42 degrees north, the air temp will be in the 40’s and 50’s in February. Trade winds and ocean currents keep it that way.
It has been postulated that the Little Ice Age triggered the expansion of ocean going vessels, navies, the British especially, explorers looking for a warmer place to be. East of the African continent 12 miles off shore will have warm air temps.
Cod season in Iceland starts tomorrow. Fresh cod makes a great dish at a meal. Don’t tell Klaus, the fool can keep eating bugs.
It snowed and the temperature has been below freezing at night for the past few days. Been enough snow over the winter, soil conditions aren’t that bad.
I very much doubt that Klaus eats bugs – or has any plans to do so.
Also, please note that Klaus Schwab (the euro-aristocrat gasbag) has nothing to do with Charles Schwab (the American innovator who was the main man behind the innovations that reduced the cost of investing in equities).
I’m getting the following message at TRF:
“This blog is open to invited readers only”
After 5 years!
Does anyone know what’s up?
How do I get a message to LM?
Sorry for the off-topic.
I’m getting that same message. It was fine a few weeks ago.
Strange.
I just checked my email, and nope, no invitation. (Must be an oversight on his part) //s//
You don’t suppose he could have been hacked?

According to NOAA, this Meteorological Winter (Dec-Feb) was the 17th warmest in 127 years of US records. It was actually warmer than last winter which means this is literally the coldest winter since last year. But let’s not wreck this story with facts.
