I am are treating this post like a perpetual blog post about the Climate Change debate. I will continue to update the links section, and add additional content to the post. I sit back and listen to all of the alarmist about global warming and just have to laugh... even though it really isn't funny. It makes you wonder what the agenda really is for some people. The AGW people claim that man made CO2 is the primary mechanism that is the root of global warming. Their models try to show a 3 degree centigrade increase in surface temperatures by the end of the century. But if you stop and look at their methods and how they generate their theory, you'll quickly discover that the global warming theory doesn't hold water. If you are so inclined, please read (or at least skim through) this study (see below) that was done by William M. Gray, Professor Emeritus at the Department of Atmospheric Science Colorado State University. You may remember Dr. Gray as the person that also made hurricane season predictions for many years, and he is acknowledged as one of the worlds leading authorities on tropical weather. His study points out some of the fallacies in the AGW's theories, and what he believes the reasons are for what little warming that has occurred over the last 80 years or so. I've included Dr. Gray's study in PDF format below. It's a very interesting read from one of the most well respected meteorological minds in the world.
EDIT: I figured it would be better to add additional links here, rather than mix them up with Dr. Gray's study or in the comments section. I will continue to update this with additional inks as I find them and add the dates they get added:
Average Arctic Temperatures (Refreshes daily) Average Arctic Temperatures as of date on image, note that 245 K is about -18F and 260 K is about 8 F
Danish Meteorological Institute It looks like we may be in for a pretty damp weekend. A large area of above normal moisture is pooled over the southeastern part of the country, and will help to bring more heavy rain and thunderstorms throughout the day today and into tomorrow. The image above depicts the PW values at 8am Saturday morning and 2"+ is pretty high, even for this time of year. A weak surface front is lingering across north Georgia this morning and will help to focus the showers and thunderstorms that develop this afternoon and evening. Notice in the image on the left (click to enlarge) how a wedge of drier air tries to work down the east side of the Apps toward Atlanta. While it shouldn't make it this far south, it will help to focus additional showers and thunderstorms over our area. Much of the area received rain yesterday, and that may lead to some minor flash flooding in those areas that may get heavy rain again today. You can see from the radar estimated rainfall totals below, some areas of north Georgia received more than 4" of rainfall. Flash flood guidance shows that some won't need much rain at all to get into a flash flooding situation. So if you're out driving, slow down for the ponding and running water on the roadways. The image below explains what I'm talking about. The image below shows the "Percent of Normal" rainfall we've had so far this year. All in all, it doesn't look much like a beach or lake weekend. Speaking of that... I have a page just for lake forecast around Georgia. Click here to take a look. Just click on any lake (or on the name of the lake on the right hand side) and a window will open for that forecast. Give it a try!
