The only colder spring recorded was in 1975. Do you notice anything else about this temperature chart? There is no warming bias in spring temperatures throughout the last century!!!! The chart is evenly dispersed. NOAA had better get that data fixed pronto for futurecunt. <img src=http://stevengoddard.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/screenhunter_157-apr-26-06-02.jpg?w=400&h=328> http://stevengoddard.wordpress.com/2013/04/26/second-coldest-start-to-spring-in-us-history/
Interesting if true, but I wouldn't trust anything from "Goddard" (a psuedonym). He was too ignorant for even the low standards of "Watts Up With That" and was booted out of there. But it led me to this other chart from the HCN stations of his chart. It's a good up to date one
Could "Stephen Goddard" have chosen the name so he could put "Goddard" on his BS? As in "NASA Goddard Space Institute" ? Or simply confuse? Yup. In fact "Goddard" may simply be a front for the FF funded denier propaganda machine, and not a person at all. "Steven Goddard is a global warming skeptic and guest author at the climate change skeptic blog WattsUpWithThat (WUWT). The name "Steven Goddard" is a pseudonym, and there is a suggestion that Anthony Watts of WUWT knows Goddard's real name. [2] Goddard operates a blog titled "Real Science" blog, originally Real-Science.com, and now as the Wordpress blog Real Science. Goddard has gone to some lengths to keep his identity hidden and his blog's web domain has been blocked from any identifying WhoIs information." "Steve Goddard does not have a background in climate science. He has primarily published his articles in blogs and newspapers using a pseudonym, and it is unlikely he has ever published in a peer-reviewed journal on the subject."
"According to a question asked in one of his ownpostings Mr Goddard says; âI have a Bachelor of Science in Geology and a Masters In Electrical Engineeringâ So academically he is about as qualified as myself and about as qualified as my cat to post his own analysisâs climate change. Also from various comments and posts it seems that he likes soccer and follows the English Premiership and enjoys cycling. If you do a search for "Steven Goddard" on Google, it doesn't really show up much and this man seems very elusive, almost invisible. There are no photographs and no biography to the point that âSteven Goddardâ may even be a pseudonym. The cynic in me might suggest the name picked as a method of generating search hits on âGoddardâ + âclimateâ." ^ And this is what qualifies as a credible source to pspr. LOL. That, and comic book illustrations. LOL
"He has had some articles published in The Register a British technology news and opinion website. Searching his name at The Reg gives links to just 5 opinion pieces all from about four years ago. One of his pieces posted on Friday 15th August 2008 called â âArctic ice refuses to melt as ordered: Thereâs something rotten north of Denmarkâ he attacked the National Snow and Ice Data Center. But after being contacted by Dr. Walt Meier at NSIDC he was forced to issue a retraction; Steven Goddard writes: âDr. Walt Meier at NSIDC has convinced me this week that their ice extent numbers are solidâ¦. It is clear that the NSIDC graph is correct, and that 2008 Arctic ice is barely 10% above last year â just as NSIDC had stated.â Unfortunately, this original error raced around the world on the the blogosphere and in many cases remains uncorrected. More information on this retraction can be found here. Mr Goddard has previously popped up with numerous and inventive âsea ice updatesâ at Anthony Wattsâ WTFUWT blog. This should be a clear warning to any WATTS followers as to the awful standard permissible for posting there, and some embarrassing back tracking has also happened as this post shows; âArctic Ice Graphing LessonIncreasing Bt 50,000 km2 per yearâ. Goddardâs ignorance on sea ice has also made him a topic at Skeptical Science. Mr Goddard has also contributed to to the Science and Public Policy Instituteâs never-ending stream of climate denier propaganda joining the ranks of the truly potty with Viscount Christopher Monckton of Brenchley now as a peer. A good over view of his standard of scientific rigour at SPPI can be found at sciblogs;" http://lazarus-on.blogspot.com/2012/01/who-is-steven-goddard.html
more ignorance spews forth for the alarmists. what fields of study do you think qualify one to be a climatologist? geology and an engineering makes that guy a super climatologist compared to say the UN head of the IPCC and most of the cranks who mistate the scientific papers they quote.
NOAA was already caught manipulating data so you can toss their government funded lies right in the trash. And you can't trust anything Hansen from NASA (I guess he recently had to quit NASA) puts out. He is right up there with Al Gore as an AGW Alarmist nut. The only honest numbers globally now are the satellite readings which show the el nino increase then nothing but a coming decline as the solar and pdo cycles start to turn cold. <img src=http://www.appinsys.com/globalwarming/GW_SimplifiedNutshell_files/image003.jpg> And finally, all those billion dollar 95% AGW forecasts have been dead wrong. <img src=http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2013/03/16/article-2294560-18B8846F000005DC-184_634x427.jpg> http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...g-forecasts-costing-billions-WRONG-along.html
here is an interesting temperature chart of sorts. I prefer more data to put things in perspective. fan27
"..in spite of the fact that global warming advocates have been complaining that the weather of the 21st century has so far been the warmest on record, it is simply not true.....such hand-wringing is not based on original raw data, but has been created from computer model adjustments that artificially elevate the warmth of this last decade and purposefully devalue the truly warm decade of the 1930s -- the Dust Bowl years." from americanthinker.com
