This is an example of a hack being an idiot.

It is very similar to the idiocy spouted on here, recently, about scientists being able to link drought in Syria to AGW. They can't and these stories, the source of which is never scientists, just play into the hands of climate deniers. It may be hot in Manaus for England's first game; indeed it is likely to be warmer than Manchester, but it will have sod-all to do with ENSO. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- El Nino will play a blinder. Not sure who he plays for though. Certainly not England. Still, it will be a useful excuse for not progressing far in the competition. |

But here they are predicting an El Nino this winter with a certainty of 78% so perhaps that will happen. http://www.mercurynews.com/science/c...ability-raised But they are saying it will happen in the winter. El Ninos are so named after the Boy Child who was born at Christmas. That will be long after England have returned from Brazil, triumphant or other wise. They are also saying that the drought in California is the worst ever recorded - more evidence of AGW having a noticable effect. Cheers, Alastair. |
