Did Global Warming Stop?

What, no 'fuzzy' math joke? Slipping!

Commentary on the post-hoc revision of the "AGW" theory and some humorous comments from scientists....... before we hit 16 years of no warming......

“Near-zero and even negative trends are common for intervals of a decade or less in the simulations, due to the model’s internal climate variability. The simulations rule out (at the 95% level) zero trends for intervals of 15 yr or more, suggesting that an observed absence of warming of this duration is needed to create a discrepancy with the expected present-day warming rate.”

‘Yet in 2009, when the [temperature] plateau was already becoming apparent and being discussed by scientists, Jones told a colleague in one of the Climategate emails: ‘Bottom line: the ‘no upward trend’ has to continue for a total of 15 years before we get worried.’

LOL?

And it's absolutely hilarious that some of you guys are latching onto a picture caption or a "closing statement" when the big bold thing staring you in the face is that THERE HAS BEEN NO OBSERVABLE SIGNIFICANT WARMING IN 16 YEARS.

Reminds me of those research papers that end with "The findings are surprising, but not unexpected given the small sample size. Further research into this matter is needed."

i.e. - what the heck just happened?

We was wrong!!!

Wellp, September 2012 was the warmest in recorded history.

Probably a solar flare or something.

Huh?

Very normal distribution in that chart above.

That's my woman's fault. She turned the damned furnace on and left all the windows in the house open...

Yes it did stop. And in other tabloid news meant for the staggeringly naive (and Steve Doocy), the Northern Hemisphere's slow transition to winter stopped for the first time in intergalactic history last Sunday as temperatures rose all across North America.

I was going to go with exiled to the south pole without any mittens but it just gets extra wordy. "Hung" is suffice.

Hung? Someone talking about me?

Did you hear it precede 'like a squirrel'?

Then no.

Huh?

Warmest average temperature there Ace... Leave it to you to focus in on the one line that says what you want it to.

Also note that the three warmest LOW temps have all occurred in the last 6 years...

Yeah. I can hardly wait for the cycle of weather to repeat itself for the nth time.
