"All four major global temperature tracking outlets (Hadley, NASA’s GISS, UAH, RSS) have released updated data. All show that over the past year, global temperatures have dropped precipitously.
Meteorologist Anthony Watts compiled the results of all the sources. The total amount of cooling ranges from 0.65C up to 0.75C — a value large enough to erase nearly all the global warming recorded over the past 100 years. All in one year time. For all sources, it’s the single fastest temperature change ever recorded, either up or down." |
And did you know that the 3 sigma variation in the average temperature since the 1800's of the earth is +/- 4.2 degrees. Which means that any temperatures that fall in that range across the avaerage is not significant.
People whio try to design trends with 3s are simply playing games or trying to win free government money (grants) by predicting maydays.
