Lol as if you’re one to talk. You literally pull figures out of your a.r.s.e when claiming “record cold” for Aussie locations. That or you deliberately use a limited period of record.
Colder than average?? This was a very hot summer in eastern AUS when looking at mean temperatures, due to an unprecedented lack of cold fronts, and persistent moist easterly winds bringing extreme levels of humidity.
Here in America overall the Summer has been cool…and rainy. We have received over 8″ of rain in 30 days. Normally we would need rain but now … STOP RAINING!
Speaking for the entire US is a bit presumptuous, don’t you think? Are you including Alaska and Hawaii, as well, lol?
In Missouri, we have had a hot summer. June was much hotter than normal, and July has been as hot as ever. Occasional cooler spells, which is normal here in the Rollercoaster State.
You do realise that summers can be both hotter AND wetter, right? That’s exactly what’s happened in southern Australia- summers are hotter, wetter, more humid and much more stable with less cold front activity than we used to get. And less windy which is a bad thing for me (I love wind and extreme weather).
“AGW Party losing ground”, says the bloke with the latest unadjusted surface temperature STILL showing a clear warming trend since 2015. For a denialist website you are sure keen on hosting data that entirely contradict your ‘ice age’ nonsense…. that is commendable I must say.
The weather is becoming more extreme in every direction and more unpredictable. It’s no longer a case of GSM vs AGW. Whether it’s the sun or geoengineering, who knows.
Unless you can experience it yourself, unless you have the equipment and knowhow to test things yourself, you’re just taking the word of someone on the Internet, and they’re all lying –because they are getting paid to do so — an unknown percentage of the time. I gave up trying to sift the wheat from the chaff. It’s just not worth it to me. But of course, I have the Creator of the heavens and the earth for my fallback position. I just try to do what He asks me to do, and leave the rest to Him.
I finally broke down and fed my persistent raccoon some more. She was clearly hungry. I think she’s one of the moms. I have trouble telling them apart. After she got her belly full, she went away peacefully.
Beginning to feel like Ellie Mae Clampett. (Don’t look like her, tho, but that’s okay. Beauty is a curse.)

@Adaminaby Angler. I have quite enjoyed your ramblings over the past year. I find it amazing that someone like you, that obviously have a few brain cells can be so far off the mark. You should do some real studies into the years leading up to the little ice age. You would understand that Cap is correct and you are completely wrong in your statements. The world is traveling along a predictable path and everything is as it should be. Man plays no part in this. We could burn the entire planet and it would change nothing. Your ramblings are simply that. Open your eyes and mind and learn to think for yourself, not be led by those that have greed and control at the heart of their agenda’s.
At this point, both sides of everything are strictly controlled. The truth is usually in the middle, but people love to have someone to fight/argue with/feel superior to, and so satan leads us around by those ignoble proclivities, and so few of us let go of their pride and contentiousness long enough to seek the truth. Division has ever been his stock in trade. Beware of extreme positions!
I’m aware that warm periods have always ended abruptly in the past due to release of saltwater, circulation collapse and the excess cloud albedo from a warming atmosphere… but Cap is literally making up “cold records” for various AUS locations. That’s called fraud.
I don’t care what the cause is, but the fact of the matter is that it HAS warmed and that Australian snowfalls are the scantiest they’ve ever been; and heat records have outnumbered cold records. That’s absolutely not up for debate.
You can argue all you want about what’s caused the warming, but to try and downplay or flat out FABRICATE ‘cold records’ like Cap is doing, is just next level really.
Australian Alps snowfalls are not “the scantiest they’ve ever been”. You’re making stuff up.
I’d call this year average so far, but we have had some very snowy years in the past decade.
Perisher has had 43 cm of snow since 16 July and the skiing is fabulous with 44 of 48 lifts open today. Who knows what the rest of the season will do, but peak snow and lowest temps almost always come in August.
The worst snow seasons (scantiest) were in 2013, 2006, 1998, 1982, 1973 and 1969 according to South Perisher, which monitors and publishes annual snow depth since 1954.
I’m talking about snow at lower elevations e.g. Three Mile Dam/Selwyn (1470 m) – ofcourse somewhere like Perisher at 1700+ m would still see heavy snowfalls as these higher resorts are more reliant on moisture rather than temps as it’s often still cold enough to snow at these higher altitudes (though often marginally so).
Low-level snowfalls have declined EXTREMELY sharply in AUS. There is absolutely no room for debate there. As usual you denialists cherrypick the highest elevation sites when making claims of increasing snowfall. Ofcourse snow would increase as we are getting wetter and wetter due to a warmer atmosphere. FFS
Fair. But please don’t call me a denier, as I was responding to your inaccurate, sweeping statement about snow in Australia. We have had much less snow and warmer winters than this many times in our history.
With respect to the Alps in the Perisher area, the most recent worst (lowest) snowfall years were:
2013-14: 7.5 cm
2020-21: 28 cm
Some of the best:
2016-17: 366 cm
2014-15: 264 cm
2022-23: 249 cm
Oberon is much lower and had a massive snow dump in 2015 that beat a 40-year old record. NSW had a very cool year in 2021 which was the coolest since 1996. I don’t see that there is really much of a meaningful trend. We’re probably just very slowly warming up from the last ice age, and will cool again as we go into the next one.
Again, using Perisher to determine snow depth is largely influenced by rainfall amounts as opposed to temperature. For instance, 1966 was the year when it snowed in Albury (elev. 165 m) – the maximum snow depth that year was just 176 cm.
You can see how there’s a poor correlation between max snow depth in the high alpine region, and snow events in the lowlands. Colder air tends to hold less moisture – 1943 was our coldest winter on record in the South West Slopes, and it wasn’t particularly wet- in fact rather dry which means a lower maximum snow depth on the alps, but of a much higher quality with dry powdery snow.
1900 and 1901 were known for extreme and extensive snow events across the low-lying plains of NSW – and they were on the whole rather dry, being in the depths of the Federation Drought. The summers were long, hot and dry.
On the other hand you can see a very strong correlation between lower temperatures and lower rainfall. The 1900−1940 period in AUS was distinctly drier than 1950−present; and much, much colder with alpine-esque snowfalls in places like Bathurst.
Summers were also more extreme back then due to the drier air and likewise drier soils – moist soils act as a handicap for heat potential.
True. Think about the 70-120 MEGATONS of nukes we detonated in the atmosphere. That did NOT heat up Earth. So we pissants can’t hurt Earth either. Sol, the Sun/Star, is what controls the PLANETS plural temps not Men or Martians😁
“cold records” in QLD recently are not genuine records. These owe largely to clear, calm conditions brought about by an extensive zone of high-pressure. Little to do with actual cold airmasses that bring snow and cold daytime temperatures.
Really?
Than why has NASA said Earth is in a Solar Minima called the EDDY Minimum since +- 2018?
Wait and as the months/years crawl along it will and is getting cooler.
The warmers are wrong too but the coolers are even more wrongER. Thee wrongEST, for now. Sure, it’s going to get very cold someday bit it’s not now and shouldn’t be for many many years. Normal solar minimum six years away. BFD. Nothing to get excited about or even think about at the moment.
Fourth record hot/dry summer here in a row. Hot every summer here since 2012 when I started reading about all this at IAN he said it would be very very cold by 2016 and it got record HOT El Nino and killed the food chain. Over this crap eight years ago. https://www.windy.com/-Temperature-temp?temp,39.203,62.520,4,i:pressure
Good luck with that. I’m beginning to suspect he will not be swayed by mere facts. Where have we seen this syndrome before? (Just everywhere, these days.)
In the meantime back at the ranch on the opposite side of the earth we need to run our cars on full wets , bicycles are getting obsolete because of roads that are no longer capable to handle the moisture when nature decides to give a wash like they already did numerous time before . Global warming is out of fancy surprises . Our weather here in Holland is getting as boaring as a modernday weatherprophet repeating the climatemantra day in and day out , having lost all contact with the daily reality over here lost in grey dullness and an enormous lack of sunshine . Absolutely no sign of climatechange . The only way is down , down and further down unless we are going to heat ourselves with fossil fuels that mother nature is giving us for free ,but (rotten) people are stealing and taxing away from us .

The link above should show the past few solar cycles which display a decreasing number of sunspots in the last six cycles and ending with about 400 years since the Maunder Minimum, the onset of a Grand Solar Minimum, starting near 2032. There is a planet near you that is woefully unprepared for it. 400 years ago the habitable areas were south of the N45 degree parallel of latitude ( one minute of latitude is 60 nautical miles). That is about 240 nautical miles south of the Canada/US Border. It must be maddening to have to face reality when it bumps into one’s favourite delusion.
Everyone Team Back here! Some of you make fatal Climate/Weather studies mistake #1, by confusing/conflating weather with climate. Most easily remembered is that it takes years of weather, i.e. daily events, particularly in a north or south, east or west part of the planet, to describe a climate locally or planetarily (more difficult without longer periods of weather event data collection). For instance, check for yourself what the global food production has been for the last 10 years, say, from 2013 to 2023 in North and South America and Northern Europe. My search of gov’t reports (which are probably massaged) shows a constant reduction of up to 5% a year. Good luck buying wine in Western Europe this year. The data is available if one accepts it. It’s not anyone’s position, cold or warm, just what it was. Other easily remembered helpful mini-laws are: Engines drive, motors are driven; Ships carry boats, boats (except submarines) do not carry ships, and, You cannot push a rope! Just trying to help here.
Approx. 400 years ago, what was the world human population then, about One billion million souls, endured the Maunder Minimum and about 10% of them perished in the cold either by starvation or freezing their tushes off. Look it up. Valentina Zharkova’s Double Dynamo theory is corroborated by hindcasting verifiable proxy climate data, up to thousands of years ago, to a 97% accuracy. Try that with any climate models. They just do not work because they are built with a bias to produce warming. I believe Cap is producing an admirable production of fact-based information with the Electroverse. It seems that some of you believe you are smarter than V. Zharkova, William Happer, and the other top-rated climate scientists. The smart money should be on them, and starting demanding preparations such as increasing (gasp) fossil fuel exploration and production. I welcome anybody showing me, with empirical data, not their opinion, where I’m wrong in the above. Bill Best in the Vancouver BC area.
(Just trying to live up to my reputation, as determined by Dirk the J***. Warning: do not ask him what happened to the volcano, if you know what’s good for you!)
Spot on William.
Go Cap Go!
It was 12C at noon today, July 25, 2024. Around here, that is a temperature that is normal for October.
All our crops are have the height. The edge of my yard is a Barley field. It is severely stunted growth. Why you ask? It was so COLD for so long after planting. The warm (growing) temperatures didn’t show up in force until the second week of July. Too late for full growth.
Is it getting colder?
Absolutely!
That is why it is so COLD today, sitting here in the sun, when yesterday it was, 21.7C, and the past week normal summer temperatures in the low 30’sC. The sun is going into a Grand Solar Minimum, a solar hibernation. These pathetic stunted crops are just one data set that is drowned in the shrill of “it’s so hot!”
Billy Best,
’09 was the low according to Ben Davidson and his pals at NASA, go talk to them while the internet still works. Ben has provided several updated solar cycle prediction studies and charts which I saved on my favorites with Zharkova’s charts and another posted on here from an AI prediction showing ’09 was the low. You think you’re smarter than Ben Davidson go debate him let’s see who wins. https://spaceweathernews.com/ https://www.youtube.com/@Suspicious0bservers
To talk to Ben Davidson, go on the S O Youtube channel when it first posts at around 4:30am west coast time. If you’re one of the first to comment he will get on there and reply back.
I’m just telling you what he has been saying for years it is common knowledge there. I’m just the messenger, talk to Ben Davidson he would probably answer emails and send you info on request.
I have the updated studies and charts saved on my last pute. I posted them all on here relaying real information. Mag strength went up not down like predicted. https://solen.info/solar/polarfields/polar.html
It is good that we have this person Adaminaby Angler. Why? As climate and weather researchers, we need to know what the opposition is to the factual and real science is, and this person Adaminaby Angler wonderfully shows this. I am quite grateful for his stupidity which follows the AGW warming nonsense. Glad to have him aboard.
Hi Deb. Electric motors require electricity to produce an electromotive force via electromagnets to turn the coils and produce a rotating animal called a motor. Kind of how your fridge and freezer work. EVs have electric motors and the rest of the automobiles use internal combustion engines (ice). The turning or rotational force in an engine is normally chemical energy, gasoline, and burning the crap out of it and creating a strong mechanical energy to force a piston to move. The difference is where the energy comes from, outside or inside. I hope this clears up the modifications out there. But, for a better explanation please see: https://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&ved=2ahUKEwiftKzwlMWHAxVuOTQIHbwpCG4QFnoECBkQAQ&url=https%3A%2F%2Fengineering.mit.edu%2Fengage%2Fask-an-engineer%2Fwhats-the-difference-between-a-motor-and-an-engine%2F&usg=AOvVaw2JQ6UgWdi3EUSEq6ev-xNB&opi=89978449
An example of the misuse of the term ‘motor’ is when aircraft propulsion systems are referred to as motors. They are engines. Elon Musk’s rocket systems do not use motors, they use rocket engines. It should be General Engines Co. but people are hard to convince when wrong. Another irritant to those who practice the use of the King’s English is the pronunciation of the word Kilometer. Consider how to say Kilogram. There are no kill-og-grams, just kill-y-grams. There should be should be kill-y-meters, not kill-om-ettrs. Obviously too much time on my hands. Cheers. Billy Best
Lol as if you’re one to talk. You literally pull figures out of your a.r.s.e when claiming “record cold” for Aussie locations. That or you deliberately use a limited period of record.
Not to mention how you flat out ignore any significant heat event. Sticking your head in the sand… or in your case the snow.
well. mate with the exception of WA most states during summer were wet and colder than average
Colder than average?? This was a very hot summer in eastern AUS when looking at mean temperatures, due to an unprecedented lack of cold fronts, and persistent moist easterly winds bringing extreme levels of humidity.
Here in America overall the Summer has been cool…and rainy. We have received over 8″ of rain in 30 days. Normally we would need rain but now … STOP RAINING!

You do realise that summers can be both hotter AND wetter, right? That’s exactly what’s happened in southern Australia- summers are hotter, wetter, more humid and much more stable with less cold front activity than we used to get. And less windy which is a bad thing for me (I love wind and extreme weather).

All our crops are have the height. The edge of my yard is a Barley field. It is severely stunted growth. Why you ask? It was so COLD for so long after planting. The warm (growing) temperatures didn’t show up in force until the second week of July. Too late for full growth.
Is it getting colder?
Absolutely!
That is why it is so COLD today, sitting here in the sun, when yesterday it was, 21.7C, and the past week normal summer temperatures in the low 30’sC. The sun is going into a Grand Solar Minimum, a solar hibernation. These pathetic stunted crops are just one data set that is drowned in the shrill of “it’s so hot!”

Billy Best,
’09 was the low according to Ben Davidson and his pals at NASA, go talk to them while the internet still works. Ben has provided several updated solar cycle prediction studies and charts which I saved on my favorites with Zharkova’s charts and another posted on here from an AI prediction showing ’09 was the low. You think you’re smarter than Ben Davidson go debate him let’s see who wins.

To talk to Ben Davidson, go on the S O Youtube channel when it first posts at around 4:30am west coast time. If you’re one of the first to comment he will get on there and reply back.
I’m just telling you what he has been saying for years it is common knowledge there. I’m just the messenger, talk to Ben Davidson he would probably answer emails and send you info on request.
I have the updated studies and charts saved on my last pute. I posted them all on here relaying real information. Mag strength went up not down like predicted. https://solen.info/solar/polarfields/polar.html
53 quakes over m2.5 on the tallest volcano on the planet today, Hawaii, 156 over the last seven days:

The solar flare on the 23rd when Mercury was opposite Jupiter was estimated to be the largest flare of this solar cycle, an X 14. Most sunspots in a day of this solar cycle on 7/18 one week ago.

I’m afraid to comment on your volcanoes!
I’ll just take my questions to Google, which does not turn around and trash me.
It is good that we have this person Adaminaby Angler. Why? As climate and weather researchers, we need to know what the opposition is to the factual and real science is, and this person Adaminaby Angler wonderfully shows this. I am quite grateful for his stupidity which follows the AGW warming nonsense. Glad to have him aboard.
Dirk –
I’d love to know what’s got your shorts in a twist!
Hi Deb. Electric motors require electricity to produce an electromotive force via electromagnets to turn the coils and produce a rotating animal called a motor. Kind of how your fridge and freezer work. EVs have electric motors and the rest of the automobiles use internal combustion engines (ice). The turning or rotational force in an engine is normally chemical energy, gasoline, and burning the crap out of it and creating a strong mechanical energy to force a piston to move. The difference is where the energy comes from, outside or inside. I hope this clears up the modifications out there. But, for a better explanation please see: https://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&ved=2ahUKEwiftKzwlMWHAxVuOTQIHbwpCG4QFnoECBkQAQ&url=https%3A%2F%2Fengineering.mit.edu%2Fengage%2Fask-an-engineer%2Fwhats-the-difference-between-a-motor-and-an-engine%2F&usg=AOvVaw2JQ6UgWdi3EUSEq6ev-xNB&opi=89978449
An example of the misuse of the term ‘motor’ is when aircraft propulsion systems are referred to as motors. They are engines. Elon Musk’s rocket systems do not use motors, they use rocket engines. It should be General Engines Co. but people are hard to convince when wrong. Another irritant to those who practice the use of the King’s English is the pronunciation of the word Kilometer. Consider how to say Kilogram. There are no kill-og-grams, just kill-y-grams. There should be should be kill-y-meters, not kill-om-ettrs. Obviously too much time on my hands. Cheers. Billy Best
I meant mudifications. BB
Lol! Well, at least you didn’t call me stupid, Billy. Thank you the clarification. 😊

Are you prepared to be civil or should I just stop talking to you?
Or perhaps you’d rather keep company with old Abominable Anger. I do see a slight resemblance of attitude. Birds of a feather 🪶 and all that, lol!
