What a load of old testaments.







The MSM is a drift with the new term THE POLAR VORTEX that has just

devastated North America. Apparently the word on the cold frozen deserted

street is that this New Skid on the Block is caused by AGW and melting

Arctic sea Ice; which I have to say seems the cause of rather a lot at the

moment.







Anyhow it's all out there was cold spell since 1994 which was ...erm

..also a Polar Vortex...... anyhow who gives a stuff because that was

caused by melting Arctic sea ice as well.







Er...excuse me, ..could I just say there was also a Polar Vortex in 1979

and 1985 in fact there's always been winters where a polar vortex has

planted itself over parts of the NH.







Anyhow we will all look forward to movie

What gets me we've had a recent post berating the stupidity of ordinary folk

, but this tripe is from Scientific Journals as well as quasi Marxist tosh

from the Guardians Tofu brigade. Yet the silence bar for the sound of heads

turning away from the taboo topic of, who is misinforming who?





I think you'll find in matters of sophisticated self deception and lies

'ordinary stupid people' have a very good way of seeing through hypocrisy

and codswallop.



======================================



The Polar Vortex is always there, isn't it? Anyway it sounds technical and

that's the main thing for the media.

Inchmarlo, Aberdeenshire.

Larry doesn't understand and thus thinks something is an invention as it will rule his agenda if he expresses it that way. Everyone else would just shake their head at this. Some areas are cold every winter and the Polar Vortex is always present. Sometimes it splits and it moves it's position constantly. At the moment, it has shifted over Canada and the northern USA. If it shifts, colder air will affect one region and warmer air another e.g. Europe recently.

Best to remember that, despite localised, temporary, colder than average conditions (which, as I've said and I wish people like larry would understand, will *always* occur), December had close to record temperatures *globally*:

UAH: December 2013 2nd Warmest December in Spencer and Christy's 33 years series:

On his website, Spencer never mentioned the unusual warmth; he only comments when global temperatures appear to have fallen month-on-month - which never actually means anything. Surface figure from GISS and NOAA out probably next week.
