Global COOLING is all the rage

Shiver me timbers!! It is getting colder than a polar bears tootsies!!!!

No sunspots means no warmth.

Gee won't the Mad Greeny Zombies chuck a mental!!!



Earth's "Big Freeze" Looms As Sun Remains Devoid Of Sunspots For Most Of 2018
by Tyler Durden Fri, 08/31/2018 - 22:55

Scientists believe that Earth could experience a “big freeze” as the sun goes through what’s known as “solar minimum.” During this time, sunspots are minimal and the globe could be in for a wicked cold snap.



Scientists are reporting that the sun has been free of sunspots for a total of 133 days this year, according to The Express UK. With only 241 days of 2018 passing, that means the sun has been blank for the majority of the year. Experts continue to warn that this is a sign that the solar minimum is on its way.

“The sun is spotless again. For the 133rd day this year, the face of the sun is blank,” wrote the website Space Weather.

“Solar minimum has returned, bringing extra cosmic rays, long-lasting holes in the sun’s atmosphere, and strangely pink auroras,” the website continued.

The sun follows a cycle of roughly 11 years where it reaches a solar maximum and then a solar minimum.

During a solar maximum, the sun gives off more heat and solar particles and is littered with sunspots. Less heat in a solar minimum is due to a decrease in the sun’s magnetic waves. Our sun was not expected to head into a solar minimum until around 2020, but it appears to be heading in that direction a little early which could prove to be bad news for warm weather lovers.



But a prolonged solar minimum could mean a “mini ice age.” The last time there was a prolonged solar minimum, it did, in fact, lead to a mini ice-age which was scientifically known as the Maunder minimum. That little cold snap lasted for 70 years between the years 1645 and 1715. During this period, temperatures dropped globally by 1.3 degrees Celsius leading to shorter seasons and ultimately food shortages.

“Low solar activity is known to have consequences on Earth’s weather and climate and it also is well correlated with an increase in cosmic rays that reach the upper part of the atmosphere. The blank sun is a sign that the next solar minimum is approaching and there will be an increasing number of spotless days over the next few years,” wrote a meteorological website called Vencore Weather.

Last winter, and in 2012 the Danube froze in places like Vienna and Budapest. Records for the previous 70 years do not show so much ice. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article ... longest-ri…

During the Maunder Minimum, people were able to ice skate on the Thames River in London. During the Great Frost of 1683–84 the Thames completely froze for 2 months, with 11 inch thick in London. Solid ice extended for miles off the coasts of the southern North Sea (England, France and the Low Countries), causing severe problems for shipping and preventing the use of many harbours.

This has been the coolest summer I can remember over my lifetime in Silicon Valley. In the south bay, its normally in the 90s this time of year, with several 100s. However, we have barely been making it into the low to mid 80s for the past month, sometimes not even out of the 70s, and September is projected to remain below normal.

Here in SE Australia we've had what I'd call a totally average winter

From 2015, suspicious0bservers, the same people who run spacewether.com: "The Sun is Going to Sleep:" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7whL9jvdL5s 5 minute video, walks through some of what happened during the last Grand Minimum.

All this global warming bs has made the sun angry.

Nein! Nein! Nein! Nein! The climate is heating up!!! You must pay GOVT to fix it!


Last of the Mi… JRobby Sat, 09/01/2018 - 09:03
Nothing that trillions in carbon tax monies put into an account for politicians to dispense ad nauseum for votes, err I mean reparations, and entitlements can't fix.

These corrupt morons are wanting to tax the temperature with absolutely no proven science whatsoever.

Yes, there have been more than a few hundred thousand which have died. In the developed countries, this happens in the winter, when low or fixed income are faced with enormous energy bills due to reliance on "green sustainable" wind and solar. Their choice is to either eat or freeze.

In places like Africa, there is no money made available for energy investment other than "green sustainable" wind and solar, even though there are plentiful deposits of coal. Because it is not possible to build a stable grid using "green sustainable" wind and solar, dung fires are still used for cooking and heating leading to increased deaths from indoor air pollution.

Also included in the rising death toll is disease caused by lack of potable water and waste sanitation.

The lack of a stable grid is already affecting places like Germany, which foolishly closed nuke and coal facilities in a delusional effort to appease the far left Greens. Australia and Canada have both recently seen changes in government due to their swivel eyed loon green energy policies.

All of this while 10's of billions have been wasted on group think climate research instead of on the real problems.

Global heating and global cooling come from the same cause.
The insulating layer on the atmosphere is less than it was.

So we get hotter summers and colder winters.

Too many people.

Australia swelters through its hottest month on record, with January mean temperature exceeding 30C

Australia swelters through its hottest month on record, with January mean temperature exceeding 30C

There are "records" that Australian Summers were extremely hot, way back in the 1850s. Children died on the Goldfields in Victoria because of it. My own Mother recorded this when she was doing our Genealogy. Heat exhaustion was deadly.

It doesn't need to be particularly hot for a person, a child in particular, to affected by heat exhaustion, Neferti. All that is required is to be out in the sun, become dehydrated and affected by the heat. Australia has generally been a hot place in summer but rarely as hot as last January - across the whole continent. 30 degrees does not seem like much but when you realise that is an average temperature, it becomes more alarming. Some places were 50% hotter, some 50% cooler but on average, they were all hotter than previous years.

According to the denialists, "coal is the future." Well if they like living in hell, they are welcome to it. I don't appreciate the idea and will keep campaigning against fossil fuels.

You have no FUCKING IDEA, do you? I am talking about the VICTORIAN GOLDFIELDS IN 1852 .... do even know where they were?

You are so ignorant ... I presume that your ancestors were CONVICTS or worse .... mine paid their own way. Suck that!

Ballarat and Bendigo areas of Victora, mainly, plus a few smaller goldfields. Details here, if you're interested.

I am unsure why you're so interested in my ancestry, Neferti. On my mother's side I have one convict ancestor who arrived in WA in 1830. I also have British Army ancestry who fought in the Maori wars in New Zealand and came from the West Indies originally. On my father's side, I have a combination of Scots and Irish from SA. Convict ancestry is now seen as similar to nobility in many circles in Australian society.

Thought so. It shows.

Bullshit.

Run along dear. I can hear your name being called from the little kiddies' playground.
