It’s not the lowest elevation on the planet but -35C at 50deg latitude in mid November. Getting rediculous and no news coverage. pic.twitter.com/HTKpu1yVNY

Y2Kyoto: Submergence Of Venice
@RyanMaue – I knew something was off when Venice’s mayor immediately blamed climate change for his city’s flooding. After the 1966 flooding, an infrastructure project called Moses was planned to hold back 53 years later it still hasn’t been finished.

30°F as high Tuesday in Nashville might occur in ~30 minutes at midnight … destroying record for coldest high temp. (Also, earliest coldest high in winter season.) pic.twitter.com/7OOwMV4bRW

Only 7°F this morning in Amarillo, Texas matching the 7°F in Chicago.
Cold rewriting many records from 1911. Century long cold records are incredibly hard to beat … and they are being shattered. pic.twitter.com/5brvAykpO2

North Dakota? Nope, this is Canyon, Texas (near Amarillo) today. Snow beginning to accumulate with reduced visibility due to the strong winds.

Climate Barbie’s Historical Data Modeling Gig
It’s a doozie.
Y2Kyoto: Come Ski The Climate Emergency!
Y2Kyoto: DON’T EAT THE CANNED MEAT
Arctic tours ship MS MALMO with 16 passengers on board got stuck in ice on Sep 3 off Longyearbyen, Svalbard Archipelago, halfway between Norway and North Pole. The ship is on Arctic tour with Climate Change documentary film team, and tourists, concerned with Climate Change and melting Arctic ice. All 16 Climate Change warriors were evacuated by helicopter in challenging conditions, all are safe. 7 crew remains on board, waiting for Coast Guard ship assistance.
Something is very wrong with Arctic ice, instead of melting as ordered by UN/IPCC, it captured the ship with Climate Change Warriors.
Y2Kyoto: New Normal
Better than the old normal.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, for example, warns, “This is what climate change looks like.” Presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders one-ups that, tweeting: “Hurricane Dorian has everything to do with climate change, which is the existential crisis of our time.”
Julian Castro is also tying Dorian to global warming.
They’re wrong, but their warnings fit a pattern. When hurricanes Harvey and Irma both hit mainland US in quick succession in 2017, critics claimed this was the “new normal.”
In fact, those two storms, along with Michael in 2018, were the only three major hurricanes greater than a Category 3 to hit the continental US in the last 13 years. That’s a record low since 1900. For comparison, the average over the same timeframe has been nearly eight major hurricanes.

Y2Kyoto: Google Summer Camp
The hypocrisy of politicians is as a bead of sand, a pimple in the shadow of Everest compared to the hollow, fake piety of the mega rich and famous gospellers of global warming.
Those howling loudest at people to use public transport — “for the planet’s sake” — should not, per exemplum, own $400-million yachts, travel themselves by private jet, have a dozen vast mansions in a dozen countries, and hold suppers that cost $100,000 in ancient Greek temples. But they do.

Y2Kyoto: YOU’RE ALL GONNA DIE!!!
The global warming issue depends heavily on computer model forecasts about climate problems that greenhouse gas emissions will supposedly cause decades from now. But it turns out that climate experts and government officials have been making these kinds of forecasts for a long time, warning about things that, by now, should already have happened, if their models are as accurate as they claim.
And I think it’s time we checked how good their crystal ball turned out to be. Before we put any trust in their new forecasts, we’re entitled to see how good the old ones were.

YNoKyoto: (Not) Showing Up To Riot
The president of the Oregon Senate said Tuesday there weren’t enough votes in his majority Democratic caucus to approve a landmark climate bill that has sparked a walkout by Republicans and exacerbated tensions between urban and rural areas.
All 11 Republican senators extended their walkout involving the issue for a sixth day, denying Democrats enough lawmakers to muster a vote on the plan that calls for capping and trading pollution credits among companies.
Hundreds of protesters flooded the capitol steps to protest the GOP walkout then unexpectedly found themselves pushing back against Democratic Senate President Peter Courtney, who disclosed that the climate plan has lost support among members of his own party.
The legislation “does not have the votes on the Senate floor,” he said. “I’ve done as much as I can, and I’ll continue to try.” […]
Conservative senators have fled the state to avoid taking a vote on what would be the nation’s second statewide cap and trade program after California, saying it will kill jobs, raise the cost of fuel and gut small businesses in rural areas.
Senate Minority Leader Herman Baertschiger said in a statement that Republicans still won’t return to the Capitol until they receive further assurances from Democrats that the legislation is dead.
Good for them.
