The Most Reliable UK And Ireland Instrumental Records Indicate No Discernable Post-1800s Rainfall Trends

Precipitation records can be directly associated with climate changes and thus temperature changes. And for “all over the UK and Ireland” there has been no detectable rainfall patterns that could be linked to rising CO2 throughout the Industrial Era.

The Rainfall Rescue project used volunteers to digitize 66,000 pages containing 5.28 million hand-written monthly rainfall observations from all over the UK and Ireland between 1677 and 1960, which is the “largest climate-related citizen science data rescue project ever completed” (Hawkins et al., 2022).

No precipitation trends are detectable when combining the post-1960 instrumental data with the long-term record.

    Just wait until the homogenizers get their hands on this data – and manipulate however they feel – just like temperatures.

    The climatologists were too busy with climate change to bother with actual rainfall records, so it had to be done by volunteers, haha. Anyway, why rescue real data when you can make it up?

    As some modern moron slaves like to comment…

    Cherry picking data from just two islands is misleading to the uninformed
    Stop it!!

    But Global Warming increases the moisture carrying capacity of the atmosphere!! What’s the problem here?

    Please add at least a linear trend line. Plus the scale makes any difference very hard to see. In keeping with Anomaly tracking throughout the climate wars, please convert this to anomalies from the average, even a rolling 30 year “climate” definition.

    It’s too easy to dismiss this as cherry picking or misleading/misdirection-by-presentation.

    I can’t promote this when I am able so very easily to question what it actually says.
