Well at 14000' and 25000' we are now running the coldest temperatures
for ten years. Now a certain person chided me recently saying that the
source of these measurements AMSU of Hunstville Alabama had warned
some time ago that only the 14000' reading should be trusted, Howevr
that was before as Dr Roy Spencer explained they'd switched over to
the aqua satellite which was far more reliable. Just to be sure I
emailed the AMSU team enquiring whether what we were seeing wa an
artfact of a satellite problem. Dr Spencer kindly replied to me in
person saying

"Lawrence:

yes, it appears the recent AMSU temperatures on the Discover website
are
reliable...could be that October will see a substantial fall in the
final
numbers.

-Roy Spencer"

So we can trust the data this time around which makes it all very
interesting and backs up Joe *******i's theory that the PDO was going
into a cooling phase similar to the 1950's. Of course this doesn'
tmean weather wise that we will be experiencing colder winters but the
pernutations must now be higher.

Look for yourselves and Dr Spencer has updated his website covering
this issue

I will now don my kevlar vest.
