The "Beast From The East" Hits The United Kingdom -- February 27, 2018

Pic of the day, from the Sun:

Idle chatter: in an e-mail exchange, I was reminiscing about my "cold weather" experiences in North Dakota, Germany, and England. In reply, a reader wrote:

I remember -40 in 1966 in MN and about -40 in 1981 in ND and almost as cold in MN about 2002 or so. 

Bottom line: he "catastrophic anthropogenic global warming" of the past 15 years, if there ever was any, is absolutely, positively over and it never had anything to do with CO2....or a "melting Arctic" (as either a cause or an effect).

Cyclical weather, as we've both known for years, is mostly the sun and associated magnetism, cosmic rays, and orbital patterns in the solar system and how these causes effect ocean currents and volcanism (unless you're selling grant paid for "science" papers, solar panels, wind mills and  pollution credits). Amazing how so many otherwise intelligent people fell for the hoax.

As I've said before: the marketing of solar panels reminds me of marketing "aluminum siding" when I was growing up in North Dakota some decades ago.
