Jaime, you said the magic word, ‘curiously’ and Einstein smiled. Just kidding, your light touch and burning curiosity are always refreshing, and who knows; maybe when the next ice age creeps down from the north and smothers all the ‘global boiling’ cultists under about a mile of ice they will finally stop whining.
NOVA on PBS did an episode on the Volcano. Hidden Volcano Abyss Wednesday May10. I know it’s Nova and on PBS, but well worth watching. They love to push climate change...just ignore.
The truth is, there has been global warming recently – but it started around the time of the Revolutionary war, and today we are still BELOW the average of the past 3,000 years. And this is not just for Europe, Greenland and North America, yet another red herring that has recently been thrown out by the desperate global warmers. The universality of the Viking and Mediaeval climatic optimums is written about by Kegwin, who wrote in Science, 1996:274:1504-1508, at https://www.science.org/doi/abs/10.1126/science.274.5292.1504 the mean surface temp of the Sargasso Sea (which lies roughly between the West Indies and the Azores), which was obtained by readings of isotope ratios in marine organism remains in sediment, shows we are, today, below the three thousand year average, and far below the Medieval Climatic Optimum, albeit far above the LIA. Civil Defense Perspectives, Mar. 2007, Vol. 23, #3, p. 1, notes that evidence for this climatic optimum has been found in all but 2 out of 103 locations where it was examined for, including Asia, Africa, South America and the western U.S. The following graph of temperature in the Sargasso Sea tells you all you need to know (note: that big horizontal line running across the page if you look the study up is the 3,000 year average!), Interestingly, the warmer times coincided not only with the best harvests, but also the least amount of major storm activity.
If the Tonga undersea eruption happened in January 2022, isn’t it strange that unusual climatic events are only now being tentatively attributed to it, e.g. the chilly weather in Tonga (this post) and the July spike in tropospheric temperatures (your previous post)?
The Met Office say that they are no longer maintaining this graph https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/hadobs/hadcet/graphs/index.html which seems a bit of a coincidence, as if they don’t want us to know that something exceptional has happened. I might try plotting it myself from their raw data.
Something exceptional is happening. Could it possibly be that it is going to turn out to be so exceptional that climate alarmists are starting to shy away from focussing on it because they know that it simply cannot be attributed to long term global warming allegedly caused by GHGs? Also, it alerts the world to the reality that extreme weather and rapid and sudden global warming can be entirely natural in origin, which is not exactly the message they want the world to hear right now.
LOL. How do these clowns retain any shred of credibility once they dribble out the climate change dogma, just like their fellow Experts™ in public health when they dribbled out their nonsense about COVID interventions? Oh, I know... most people are simply dumb AF and will continue to rely on Authority™ rather than reason.
It’s hard to believe Joel. That article completely ignores the sodding great volcano which erupted on Tonga’s doorstep just 18 months ago, but jumps at the opportunity to blame ‘climate change’ for the current anomalously cold weather!

I see Chris Morrison wrote about this in the Daily Sceptic. Are you in touch with them?
No Alan.

Or let’s put it another way, from the Dansgaard & Johnson study, cited from David Stockman’s article on AGW : or as here on ResearchGate: https://www.researchgate.net/figure/Average-near-surface-temperatures-of-the-northern-hemisphere-during-the-past-11000-years_fig5_313127868
Just for giggles and in the interest of having another point of view, here is this. https://hal.science/hal-01082992/document
I’m fairly sure that it’s not connected, but climate alarmists are getting hysterical about ocean temperatures. Dr David Whitehouse of the GWPF says they are wrong, see https://www.netzerowatch.com/the-guardians-ocean-circulation-problem/.
If you can bear to watch, it was the lead story on Channel 4 News last night: https://www.channel4.com/programmes/channel-4-news/on-demand/75211-216.

I hadn’t heard of the Tongo eruption before but in hindsight it could explain why the CET mean temperature anomaly in 2022 was exceptionally high, in the middle of a massive cooling La Nina (2020 to early 2024). It shows up in this March 2022 Met Office graph https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/hadobs/hadcet/legacy/graphs/HadCET_graph_ylybars_uptodate_3.gif.

That's why it's 'climate change' not global warming. The new marketing phrase global boiling isn't going to have much thrift with Tongans
