Deary me Fade, the Daily Mail again?

I had a feeling someone on here would try to pass this unmitigated shite off as fact (although I have to confess, I though it would be Red.)

It's not like you lot haven't been warned about citing that bigoted organ of pish as a reliable source:

Today the Mail on Sunday published a story written by David Rose entitled “Forget global warming – it’s Cycle 25 we need to worry about”.​
This article includes numerous errors in the reporting of published peer reviewed science undertaken by the Met Office Hadley Centre and for Mr. Rose to suggest that the latest global temperatures available show no warming in the last 15 years is entirely misleading.

That's from the Met office itself:

More trouble for the warmers, you say?

Nope, simply more lies being spread by serial liar, The Daily Mail, with useful dittoheads like yourself only too happy to propagate said lies, all the while claiming scientific fact.

Back in your box.
 
LOL! Weather be messed up, right now. I had a thunderstorm last week. Seriously. WTF??

But back around to the topic here... There are just so many variables. And so many models that try to balance them... It's not surprising that these models come up with quite different predictions. And scientifically, I really wish to hell that these models can be compared on merit of the science instead of how they can help certain political viewpoints.

In somewhat similar news.... These ocean acidification statistics don't look good, at all. =(
 
Only one problem with your child like illogic there Robert! You don't get to poo poo somebody, just because they quoted a source. In this case, NASA, and the Met Office and the University of East Anglia Climatic Research Unit, no matter how bad you hate the messenger.

Try a more adult approach.

The crevasse stretches 19 miles (30 kilometers) long and up to 260 feet (80 meters) wide, as shown in a picture taken by NASA's Terra satellite in October and featured this week as a NASA Image of the Day.
Snaking across the floating tongue of the Pine Island Glacier in West Antarctica, the crack is expected to create an iceberg 350 square miles (907 square kilometers)—versus 303 square miles (785 square kilometers) for Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island, and the Bronx combined, according to NASA.
As for when the iceberg might shove off, "that is very difficult to predict," said oceanographer Eric Rignot of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, "but in the coming months for sure."

nasa is a taxpayer funded entity... the first thing on the agenda of a taxpayer funded entity is the preservation of same... universities have agendas too... and so don't individuals who own newspapers... and this applies left, right, and right down the damn middle... it can be tricky going, navigating the waters of truth, eh?

But I do get to poo poo somebody for spouting absolute horsefeathers, which is exactly what that article is.

No, fade. In this case the Daily Mail.
You did not quote NASA.
You did not quote the University of East Anglia Climatic Research Unit.
You did not quote the Met Office.
You quoted the Daily Mail.
I quoted the Met Office.
They themselves dismissed the Daily Mail article as scare-mongering rubbish.

Perhaps you should try taking your own advice.

And while you're at it, try and learn to read the actual source, not the pish spread by the Daily Mail. ;-)

Looks to me like the glacier has cracked and refrozen many, many times without breaking off.

I would bet it doesn't break off this year anywhere near that fracture line in the next year.

39% acurate guesses from the Groundhog. Might as well flip a coin then you'll do slightly better with 50% accurate guesses.

So better accuracy than predictions of Man made Global Warming then
 
it's supposed to be 50° in NY for the next two days.
 
More deaths amid Europe's big freeze

Health officials say that more than 1,100 people have sought help for hypothermia and frostbite over the past six days, the state-run Ukrinform news agency reported, and more than 900 of them have been treated in hospitals.
The authorities have opened more than 2,200 heated tents for people who do not have heating in their homes. Most schools in the capital, Kiev, are closed through the weekend.
Temperatures there dipped to 25.5 degrees below zero Celsius (13.9 degrees below zero Fahrenheit) Thursday, the coldest night in 83 years, according to Ukrinform.
