NEW PAPER SHOWS CENTRAL EUROPE WAS 2 TO 5 DEGREES WARMER IN THE RECENT PAST THAN THE PRESENT

Yet another study shows that our present climate is not exceptionally warm. Time to wake up and stop all the angst over a one degree increase and slow down the phase out of fossil fuels. There is no need to panic.

SCARE TACTICS EXPOSED AS MERELY HOT AIR

Jo Nova's excellent blog is constantly reminding us of how ridiculous the dramatic headlines are which reference some new climate record. When you see what is going on with the temperature measurements from our Met Office (see previous days posts) you realise what nonsense all this talk is. Read her latest post to understand what is really happening.  

 Sunday was 0.01 degree hotter than last year, and 1 or 2 degrees cooler than what cavemen lived through. So What? « JoNova (joannenova.com.au)

It is quite possible to accept that CO2 is causing some warming while still being sceptical of whether that warming is a serious threat as opposed to merely one factor among many which can lead to changes in our climate. What we need to do is recognise that many of the factors affecting the climate are beyond our control. We need to learn to adapt and mitigate the most extreme weather and stop trying to control it.

UK MET OFFICE - THE FACTS ABOUT THEIR NEW WEATHER STATIONS

 Whilst it may be understandable that the Met Office has some legacy old sites in locations which have become compromised over time, it cannot be acceptable for new stations to be poorly located from the outset.


Analysis of stations opened in the 21st century indicates a worsening of the situation with over 87% of new stations falling into Classes 3 to 5.  Worse still, of the 13 sites opened in the last 5 years, 8 fail  to make Classes 1 or 2. Thus the  proportion of "Junk" sites is actually increasing.

In 2022 the Neatishead Class 4 site was opened in the shadow of a large Radar 'Dome. In 2023 the new Arthog site  was equally opened as a Class 4 inaccurate unit. 

This practise of opening new inadequately accurate reporting  sites must be stopped immediately or alternatively do not use their data for any form of climate reporting purposes. 

One instance of particular concern is the Hull, East Park station installed in 2011. It is a Class 5 site in a very poor position in the "Animal Education Centre". It sits hard alongside what is now an overgrown hedge where  tour bus vehicles park. It regularly records the regional daily high temperature on the Met Office Daily listings as well as the National highest temperature on 2 occasions so far this year. An example of this listing can be viewed here.


As well as two reputable Private Weather Sites in Hull in close proximity to the official Met Office site there is also  the Hull University Research Centre's very well sited, equipped and maintained weather station.


Both the Private Weather Sites and the very high quality University site record significantly lower temperatures than the official site. In contrast to the unhelpful and evasive responses typical of my inquiries to the Met Office, the University were exceptionally helpful and even gave me direct personal access to their live online data. Closer inspection revealed the official Met Office site to be regularly recording up to 3 degrees celcius higher.  Despite raising this issue with the Met Office they declined to answer my queries.  When asked to supply their recent data from the site, I was referred to an archive site that operates 18 months in arrears to view it, presumably some time in the distant future. 

It is not an unreasonable inference, therefore, that the Met Office are deliberately seeking to inflate the climate temperature record by installing new sites likely to record artificially raised temperatures. 
If the public new of this, I think it is reasonable to assume that they would be horrified to hear of such a poor effort by an organisation that they would instinctively trust

UK MET OFFICE UNDER SCRUTINY - PART 3

 Let's take a look at exactly how the Met Office observes and collects its raw data.


Weather Station siting.

The World Meteorological Organisation (WMO) is part of the United Nations Organistaion (UN), to which almost all national meteorological agencies report their data for climate reporting purposes.

The WMO recently standardised the weather station location requirements for Climate data recording purposes.

The UK Met Office was a significant partner to the formulation of this standard which was ultimately codified by the International Standards Organisation as ISO/WMO standard 19289:2014(E) as detailed below.


WMO rules indicate that only sites meeting  CIMO Classes 1 or 2 should be used for Climate Reporting purposes. Class 3  sites have  known errors caused by siting of 1°C,  Class 4 sites  error margins of 2°C and Class 5 sites have known error margins up to 5° C.
Consequently, Classes 3 to 5 stations should NOT be used for climate reporting purposes. Classes 4 and 5 are generally considered to have no better than "Junk" status in climate reporting terms though quite possibly  acceptable for their original installed purposes such as immediate aviation advice, local agriculture, local transport etc.


It required a Freedom of Information request to obtain from the Met Office the list of their Climate and Synoptic reporting weather stations by CIMO Class.

Amazingly this list indicates that of 384 climate reporting stations just 52 (13.7%) fall into Classes 1 & 2.  

A further 30 (7.8% of total) sites are Class 3

187 sites (48.7% of total ) are Class 4

112 sites (29.2% of total) are Class 5
Almost 85% of all Met Office sites are NOT deemed acceptable for climate data reporting purposes by the  World Meteorological Organisation and International Standards Organisation stated requirements.  

It is worth noting that the Met Office claims to use its own separate  station monitoring standards but does not give plausible reasons why these should override WMO standards. They do not demonstrate any greater level of suitability for climate reporting than the CIMO standards.

The government are spending billions of pounds to tackle a "climate crisis", and yet their on organisation is unable, or unwilling to make their own weather stations first class! It is a scandal which, so far has gone unreported, save for this small blog.

MET OFFICE UNDER SCRUTINY - PART 2

Following on from yesterday's post here is a second misrepresentation of "data" by the UK Met Office. 

 Long term "Historic Data"



The above indicates 37 long term sites quoting monthly  "Data".  Note that 3 sites on the map are coloured blue with the key, indicating these stations have closed. The remainder are coloured orange indicating "open" stations.
 Any reasonable person would therefore assume the orange marked sites were "open" stations as stated.

However, for example, go to Lowestoft and "view data".  Whilst figures run from 1914, all figures from 2010 are marked with an asterisk indicating they are "Estimated" - the station closed in 2010 -  i.e.14 years ago.

What scientific organisation would continue to  "estimate"  figures for over 14 years and counting? What possible scientific purpose could such "estimation" serve?

The Met Office has again declined to advise me either how these estimates are arrived at or why they do so.

The stations at  Nairn Druim, Paisley and Newton Rigg are similarly closed but still reporting "estimated" monthly data. It should also be noted that even those stations marked as closed continued to report  "Estimated" numbers beyond their closure date.

Why would any scientific organisation feel the need to publish what can only genuinely be described as fiction? No scientific purpose can possibly be served by fabrication.

Saturday 20 July 2024

UK MET OFFICE UNDER SCRUTINY

The public and our government place much reliance on the government funded UK Meteorological Office. Most people would expect their data to be the "gold standard" with every care taken to ensure no errors were presented. In fact a comprehensive investigation has revealed this is simply not true. Read on for the details:  

1. How "Climate Averages" data was presented by the Met Office. 



This details 302 sites. As an example, either click on the map or type in "Dungeness".  You will be directed to a "nearest site" called "Dungeness" giving accurate map co-ordinates, elevation and a description as "Observing Site" 

Any reasonable person viewing this (a student for example) would assume there is a site there and the 30 year rolling averages from 1960 to 2020 were both "observed" and "data" - notably quoted to the second decimal place of a degree. 
However, there is NO weather station at Dungeness - it closed in 1986 - i.e. 38 years ago. 

For these  last 38 years there have been no observations, thus no data recorded at Dungeness.  All the figures are fabricated in scientific terms. 

Through Freedom of Information request (FOI)  I obtained the details of which stations actually still exist as attached excel spread sheet. 

Of the 302 sites quoted, over one third (103) do NOT exist. The Met Office declined to advise me  exactly how or from where the alleged "data" was derived for these 102 non-existent sites.

In my home county of  Kent, 4 of the 8 sites shown are fiction (Dungeness, Folkestone, Dover, Gillingham) and all produce different "averages". Referring back to Dungeness, the nearest open Met Office Weather Station sites are over 25 miles away.   

There is no plausible  scientific purpose in the invention of numbers for non-existent sites which are falsely posing as authentic locations.

How would any reasonable observer (i.e. the example student) know that the data was not real and simply "made up" by a government agency?

Part 2 will reveal further shocking shortcomings tomorrow.

PAUL BURGESS GIVES THE CLIMATE FACTS

In his latest video, Paul looks at his recent appearance on GB News where he debates the UK energy situation and how safe it is under the new Labour government. He manages to list a good number of reasons for doubt which his opponent, Jim Dale is unwilling, or unable to refute. Instead he resorts to bluster and claims that the argument over renewables has been won as a result of the election. As Paul says near the end the fact is that it is simply not possible to completely do away with fossil fuels without having major power outages. Something Jim and our political leaders seem to have over-looked.

CO2 AND A MILD WARMING ARE NOT PROBLEMS - SAYS NEW PAPER

The paper concludes:

The infrastructure to replace fossil fuels does not exist and likely cannot be built in a short time. Current realistic estimates of future energy use suggest that fossil fuels will still supply half our energy in 2050 and beyond. Yet, no credible evidence exists that this is a problem or will become a problem. Recent research into climate change has suggested that nature plays some role, and certainly greenhouse gas emissions may play some role as well. What we do not know is how much of climate change is human-caused and how much is natural. No drastic changes to our economy are justified until we can figure this out.

While I am sure this is technically possible, the questions are: what will it cost? How will those costs be allocated?

A JUDGE AND JURY GET TOUGH WITH JUST STOP OIL PROTESTORS

At last! 

All defendants have been found guilty by unanimous verdicts in the trial of five

protesters at Southwark Crown Court this morning. They were accused of conspiring to cause public nuisance through their protest actions on the M25 in November 2022. In remarks at the end of the trial, Judge Christopher Hehir made his personal views very clear, congratulating the jury, and describing climate concern as "single issue fanaticism". Earlier in the trial he had ordered the arrest of supporters who sat quietly outside the court with banners proclaiming "Jurors deserve to hear the whole truth". Today he backed down and dropped that charge. Sentencing for the five will take place next Thursday 18th, and the judge has indicated he will be delivering 'very long' prison sentences. The trial was observed last week by Michel Forst, a UN Special Rapporteur deeply concerned over the persecution of climate protesters. The judge ruled out ANY defence in the trial, and repeatedly arrested defendants within the court for attempting to speak to the jury about the overwhelming evidence that humanity is facing an extreme existential crisis, and that civil disobedience is essential to achieve the changes required to mitigate. ⚠️ Roger Hallam, Daniel Shaw, Louise Lancaster, Lucia Whittaker De Abreu, Cressida Gethin are remanded in custody.

NIGEL FARAGE SPEAKS OUT AGAINST CLIMATE POLICY

A very interesting discussion between Nigel Farage, Leader of Reform and Jordan Peterson is well worth listening to. If you want to pick out the part where they discuss climate policy then go to about 17 minutes in. I think Farage has got it right and I hope that the remains of the Conservative Party is able to come to an accommodation with him before the next election. Until we do there is no chance of the centre right coming back to government here in the UK. 

I expect the contradictions within the current climate policy here to come to a head within the next few years as energy prices go on increasing to the point where there is a real crisis and the government is forced to reset, if not abandon its targets.

FRENCH VOTERS SEEM TO BE REJECTING NET ZERO

Marine Le Pen, the former presidential candidate, railed against “Brussels,” which “forces you, almost overnight, to change your boiler for €15,000,” against the “authoritarian reductions to agricultural land” and against the “heartless European Commission.”

“Don’t they have as their objective the reduction of human activity as a whole?” she asked, before connecting the issue to her obsession with French people’s daily lives, a strategy that has brought the RN to the threshold of coming to power. “It’s always the same logic of degrowth, which leads them to ban the sale of internal combustion engines in 2035, and thus deliberately program the sacking of our automotive industry and dependence on China,” she continued.

CLIMATE IS CONTROLLED BY THE OCEANS, NOT CO2

 Climate Catastrophe! Science or Science Fiction? – Andy May Petrophysicist

A very interesting book. Here is a short extract from the linked article: 

"The IPCC report states on page 7 that they present “clear and robust conclusions … that the science now shows with 95 percent certainty that human activity is the dominant cause of observed warming since the mid-20th century.”

There are several problems with these ideas. Most heat transfer in the lower atmosphere, where there is a lot of water vapor, occurs via convection. Water vapor (and water) have a high heat capacity and carry a lot of latent heat, they transport most of the thermal energy near the surface in the so-called atmospheric “boundary layer.” CO2 has a low heat capacity. It is infrared active and absorbs and emits IR radiation, with a small delay, whereas latent heat can be carried by water vapor for weeks before it condenses as rain and emits it. At high altitudes, where there is little water vapor, CO2 is responsible for emitting most of the IR to space as thermal radiation. But, near the surface water vapor does the cooling.

 99.9% of the heat capacity is in the oceans and 0.1% is in the atmosphere.  The oceans are very cool, with an average temperature of about 4 degrees C. As stated in the quote, they contain 1,000 times the heat capacity of the atmosphere and provide a huge buffer that limits the Earth’s surface temperature. Most of the solar thermal energy that reaches the surface is absorbed by the oceans. The warmest part of the ocean is the surface of the tropical Pacific." 

The question remains; why has the Western world been captivated by such a foolish and damaging notion?

WE WILL ALL PAY A HEAVY PRICE FOR TRYING TO ACHIEVE NET ZERO (AND FAILING)

The article, below, contains a lot of points about how our lives are going to be restricted in the attempt to reach net zero, but the main point about the rich paying a heavy price is not quite right as we will all be paying a heavy price, but it is the middle class who will face the worst of the restrictions as it is they who will find they cannot afford to run their car, heat their home, go on holiday. The rich will still be able to do these things, as a complete ban on private jets, heated swimming pools, etc. would simply drive the rich abroad and no government would want to risk that.

The only way the government will be able to claim they have achieved net zero is by claiming that vast amounts of CO2 have been removed from the atmosphere. This will result in a number of schemes coming forward to do this, but this will come at a huge price leaving the question of how this money will be found. I expect some will come from the taxpayer in the form of subsidies and some added to our bills. 

I will wait and see how they try to hide it. I make one prediction, which is that these schemes will lead to scams as a result of either they will simply not work, or even worse they will prove completely fraudulent, as have some of the schemes to "off set" carbon emissions.
