Seriously though, globally, what's the score ?







Australia has just had the hottest summer ever and the US 48 contiguous



states have just had their hottest year.

Since that new item NASA has reported:



"NASA Finds Long-Term Climate Warming Trend"

and







"Amplified Greenhouse Effect Shifts North's Growing Seasons

Meanwhile the Sun is fading with NASA saying "We are currently over four



years into Cycle 24. The current predicted and observed size makes this the



smallest sunspot cycle since Cycle 14 which had a maximum of 64.2 in



February of 1906."

It is not just the weather that is Chaotic. The climate is too. Global



warming does not mean temperatures rise evenly all over the globe.







Cheers, Alastair.



Thanks for the replies, it was a serious question and had always believed that the coolness was just a 'local' variation in the big scheme of things.. I just wonder what the next phase is going to bring?

Stick by your hot cross buns Keith (well Good Friday not far off) none of the AGW's here would have ever pre 2010 predicted snow albeit patchy but very cold weather for the UK in March-ever again. Yet here they are now trying to make sense of it and rationalising cold, snowy weather across most of the NH this winter as further evidence of AGW . No sceptic would dare claim several mild winters and very hot summers as AGW but here they are.

Hey folks : maybe climate just changed regardless of human activity
