Due to a “relatively stable warm climate” the Medieval Warm Period (800 to 1300 CE) was a period of expanding Scandinavian population, increasing trade, food and goods production. There has been a ~500 zettajoule (ZJ) increase in global ocean heat energy since 1750. The Medieval Warm Period global ocean had 1000 ZJ more heat energy […]

Germany’s Kachelmannwetter.com weather Youtube account, quite reliable and professional, just posted a video discussing model forecasts for next week. 41°C in England next week? England and Wales could see a new all-time high, with temperatures projected to reach up to 41°C. Currently the all-time high there is 38.7°C, according to Kachelmannwetter.com. There’s still uncertainty about where […]

The Western North Pacific has continued cooling over the last millennium, with no reversal in trends after the Little Ice Age. Earlier this year we highlighted a study showing corals thrive in multiple-degrees-warmer-than-today waters and their growth is stunted in cooler environments. Corals in the Western North Pacific near Japan were far more abundant than […]

The model generated fantasy murder heatwave that the media confused as science and reality. On July 9th, I posted the following chart, from Kachelmannwetter on Facebook. At the time, the US GFS model was showing Düsseldorf would reach a whopping 44°C (111°F) on July 18, and see an overnight low of a scorching 28°C On […]

A new study (Boulila et al., 2022) suggests “abrupt and severe changes in Earth’s past climate” have been occurring at ~1,500-year periodicities since the iceless Jurassic period. Warming events of degrees C per within decades or less were at one time thought to have occurred only at locations like Greenland and the North Atlantic during […]

Breitbart here presents a report on Youtubers who compared an electric Ford F-150 pickup and a gasoline engine GMC Denali Ultimate Edition to see how far each could tow a trailer. The results of the electric Ford pickup remind me of the promises made by the COVID vaccine manufacturers: wildly exaggerated and probably more harmful […]

It’s hard to believe that an internationally renowned company like John Deere would be led down such a dubious technical route: electric powered heavy agricultural equipment. Consider that a battery for a typical electric car weights half a ton. Imagine it would need to weigh for a machine that weighs over 25 tons. With diesel, […]

A new study (Gupta et al., 2022) indicates that from 2000-2019 73% of the 15 sites considered have been cooling and 67% have experienced a lengthening of sea ice duration. Canada’s Hudson Bay extends into the Arctic Ocean and its coasts are teeming with polar bears. Scientists report 11 of 15 Hudson Bay sites have […]
