Hey wizard, take a break from plotting the deaths of billions to read this bit of bad news:

Have fun
I'm mental. I admit it. Even have the complementary drool sheet in place.
But does that make me wrong?
P.S. Still waiting for the promised warmening. I know it will happen in a few months or so but then again, it always does (well, I hope it does). And then it will get colder again, as it always does. You know, climate change. Warmer, colder, warmer, colder, sometimes more warmer, sometimes VERY colder. Up, down, left, right, round and round the merry-go-round.
Oh dearie, you still around?
I would have thought that, with all this heat, you would have melted by now.
I am still waiting for the warmening, it was supposed to be so warm. Just for fun, here is another look at those graphs but from a different blog:

Yes, interesting is it?
You still have not explained this one:

What was it?
Because I know you have difficulty seeing the obvious, let us bring the mountain home:
51 LOWEST MAXIMUM? I thought it was supposed to be getting warmer? Should that not have made it impossible to break LOWEST MAXIMUM records?19 March 2008
Although WET and COLD conditions were experienced mostly over the north-eastern half of the country the last few days, it is the analysis of the COLD conditions that revealed some interesting facts.
A total of 51 lowest maximum temperature records as well as 2 lowest minimum temperature records (1 for the 16th from a station in KwaZulu-Natal and 1 for 17th from a station in Mpumalanga) were reported the last two days.
For Sunday the 16th a total of 20 lowest maximum temperature records were reported while for Monday the 17th a total of 31 lowest maximum temperature records were reported. For the 16th 10 records were reported from stations in Mpumalanga, 5 from stations in Gauteng, 3 from stations in North-West and 1 each from stations in the Free State and the Limpopo Province. For the 17th 10 lowest maximum temperature records were reported from North-West, 8 from stations in the Free State, 7 in Gauteng, 3 in the Limpopo Province, 2 from stations in the Northern Cape and 1 from a station in KwaZulu-Natal.
Ten stations reported new lowest maximum temperature records on both days. Five of these stations are in Gauteng, three in North-West and one each in the Free State and Limpopo Province.
The longest standing record that was broken was at Warmbath in the Limpopo Province where the previous lowest maximum temperature of 16,7 °C was recorded on 15 March 1939, nearly 70 years ago. This record was broken on both days with a maximum temperature of 16,3 °C recorded on the 16th and only 15,4 °C recorded on the 17th.
The lowest maximum temperature record of 8,1 °C measured at the Ermelo Weather Office on the 16th, was also the lowest maximum temperature reported for the whole country on that day. The lowest maximum temperature reported in South Africa for the 17th was 9,8 °C measured at Van Reenen.
I guess reality does not beat to a leftard tune.
Dum de dum dum dum dum rata dum dum!!!
Are you sober?
PS .. You ignored EVERYTHING I said. Guess you dont care about the truth. Sad.
PS... if you want to be taken seriously.. post REAL sites.. you know. REAL scientist websites, with peer reviewed data.. not this right wing "i sleep with my cousin" hick propaganda.

Yeah, he does come across a lil like a fundamental extremist. He is not interested in the truth.. one bit.
Still wondering what bwa explanation for the lack of North poll icecaps is.. and for the severe reduction of ice and snow on the Himalayas.. and for the decline in the worlds coral reefs.

I wouldn't be surprised, to be honest. Though I haven't seen it, most documentaries that are trying to make a point tend to exaggerate the thrust of their argument, and can be thin on facts. That's the nature of such things - they're really presentations done by salespeople, rather than scientific articles backed by references and data.
This little article is great. The wittle enviro-religious nutjobs hate it when people don't BELIEVE in their excrement:

P.S. I did not know that WeatherSA was a right-wing propoganda site. Things you learn.
P.P.S. Still waiting for the warmening.
P.P.P.S. Check out NYT circa 2000 with their lil scare on the "north pole is melting" track .. then they retracted it. Yep. Because it is normal for the arctic ice to melt in SUMMER!!! In March, it was around 14 million square and thicker than normal. Oh well, just like you guys to get all HOT over nothing
P.P.P.P.S. Did you check all the volcanoes under the arctic ice?
P.P.P.P.P.S. You talk about all your peer reviewed research, but I ain't seen no links to it. Just to the OPINIONS of the so-called scientists. I'll take the opinions of MY scientists over YOUR scientists any day.

Still have a few questions:
This Schwartz paper says:
Meaning:The resultant equilibrium climate sensitivity, 0.30 ± 0.14 K/(W m-2), corresponds to an equilibrium temperature increase
for doubled CO2 of 1.1 ± 0.5 K.
There is a likelihood of a of 1.1 degree Kelvin increase (as a result of CO2) within the next 70 years (time it will take to double the CO2 at the current rate). Is that really so huge? Is it all that catastrophic? Extra CO2 yields bigger crops too...
Also:
Here is an interesting article on research done by South African researchers on water resource management and the synchronous linkage between hydrometeorological processes in South Africa and elsewhere, and solar activity. And no evidence could be found of trends in the data that could be attributed to human activities.
If people are interested in their opinion, why not contact them?
