    Children won’t know what snow is.

    Polar blast to bring heavy snow to Australia’s alpine resorts in time for the end of the school holidays – here’s where to find the best conditions (Sky News, 6 Jul)

    More seriously the terrestrial temperature records have been so adjusted that they’re now meaningless. From what I see the natural thermohaline cycle, the activity of the sun and the changes in land use we’ve been doing over the last century explains almost all of the real temperature rise that we’ve seen.

    He [Alan Finkel] cites an all-time Australian record temperature of 50.7⁰C in the Pilbara region of WA in 2021. But, Oodnadatta in SA recorded the same temperature in 1960. And of course, the 51.7⁰C recorded in Burke in 1909, which has been excluded by the Australian Bureau of Meteorology policy of only referencing temperatures after 1910, is the real record.

    I do not trust one word that comes out of the climate alarmists’ mouths, or keyboards.

    … the Australian Bureau of Meteorology policy of only referencing temperatures after 1910 …

    The Federation Drought has been airbrushed out of history.

    I wonder if it would be possible to finish the job and erase federation itself?

    It was probably the hottest period on record in Australian history to this day.

    The cut-off date of 1910 is happily very convenient for the climate alarmists and the bureau, and no coincidence.

    Like those studies of terrorism in the U.S. which only begin with the post 9/11 period.

    Please, temperatures are so yesterday.
    Air Turbulence is the new thing.
    A couple of atmospheric scientists have found there is a lot more air turbulence affecting planes now that in 1979.
    Might be a lot more planes in the sky but hey, I’m not a scientist pushing for more funding for atmospheric research.
    The MSM loves this story because all they have to do is say “scientist say” and never actually quote any proof more than that.

    Moore’s not telling us there isn’t a relationship between CO² concentrations and climate, is he?

  7. C.L. says:

    I’m struck by the fact that it hasn’t been so cold for 290,000,000 years.
    Brrrr.

    Fantasy Science ™ is the hallmark of modern university science faculties with “climate science” the very apex of the genre.

    I just wish they would teach them descent Science Fiction so we could all have a good read.

    Bruce (6.53pm) and others.. I musta posted the following a hundred times on various blogs (multiple times at different blogs, including this one)….and will do so one more time…

    The claim is / was that snow would cease to fall….and that in Australia because our mountains are lower than other Mountain / Alpine areas, the Aussie ski-fields would suffer faster than most other countries’ fields. In Oz this line has been relentlessly pushed by the chief alarmist outfit..the CSIRO….which advises govt, and directs “the science” on this matter. However….

    The CSIRO has it’s own Ski Club…..http://csiroskiclub.com.au/…..

    “C.S.I.R.O. Ski Club was founded in the early 1950’s by a group of intrepid C.S.I.R.O. workers and their families. The Club was founded to provide members with facilities including accommodation, in good skiing and recreational locations at reasonable cost.
    Over the years the club has grown dramatically and now has two ski lodges. One in Perisher Valley built in 1985, the other in East Jindabyne”

    It is always booked solid in the season. It’s run on a shareholder basis: has a long waiting list to join, and it is very expensive to buy into. Does all this indicate a belief in the No More Snow mantra?

    Once a year there is the AGM, where the Club is obliged to report accurately on it’s prospects going forward…which means “is it financially viable” and what is the business outlook. Here’s what the Directors told the gathered gang of CSIRO climate and “No More Snow” alarmists last August (2022)…..ANNUAL REPORT 2021-2022….

    “Likely Developments
    The company expects to maintain the present status and level of operations and there are no likely(detrimental) developments in the operations in future financial years. The Directors will continue to monitor the status of the assets and will upgrade them according to the circumstances if the expenditure is deemed to be in the best interest of members.”

    There were no objections to this report / assertion. No alarmist CSIRO scientist jumped up to challenge this. No member felt driven to correct this. There will be no adverse events to affect the ski-ing..

    OK, so this battle is already won. Amongst themselves they freely admit it’s all BS. It’s way past time to stop pointing out that their claims / predictions/ assertions are perennially inaccurate…but to SHOW they are mendacious liars…and not just “mistaken”. See the CSIRO Ski Club report!

  10. NFA says:

    From the report at Mantaray’s link,

    Principal Activities
    The principal activity of the company during the financial year was the operation of the CSIRO Ski Club for the
    promotion of snow and alpine sports. No significant change in activities occurred during the year

  11. Mantaray says:

    NFA. Good to see you up and about. I know a couple of the members. Professional liars as is usual, but off-duty not too unbearable!

    BTW: If CL wishes to add a thread about assisted dying, or perhaps an Open Thread each day so’s to avoid derailing the dedicated threads, it would be much appreciated (by me, and maybe others). Here’s hoping.

    Someone finally took a good look at the thermometers that make up the surface temperature record.
    https://www.mdpi.com/1424-8220/23/13/5976
    I’ve thought for a long time that +/- 2 deg C was as good as it got and this paper comes up with +/-1.93 Deg C.
    Takeaway conclusion: The compilation of land- and sea-surface LiG uncertainty yield a 1900–2010 global air-temperature record anomaly of 0.86 ± 1.92 °C (2σ), which renders impossible any conclusion regarding the rate or magnitude of climate warming since 1850 or earlier.

    Interesting to read of the organisation’s ski club.
    Links can be important; otherwise it would’ve appeared to be a joke.

  14. Bruce of Newcastle says:

    Yeah. It also coincides with the very bottom of the ~60 year cycle. Funny that. If they started with 1880 for example it’d halve the “warming”, since we’d then be going from peak to peak not trough to peak. It’s blatant misdirection.

    (The graph of HadCRUT 3 is from this 2012 article on the cycle. Since then the IPCC types have adjusted the data to remove the obvious cycle, which they called in the Climategate emails “the blip”.)

    “It’s blatant misdirection”

    You spelled “misinformation” incorrectly. Though somehow I suspect that matter would not be affected by the latest Gummint plan.

    Thanks for that Mantaray. Here are bureaucrats lying blatantly and openly to please their political masters but clearly against the national interest. The frustrating part is that in today’s political / media environment, they can do so with no fear of punishment whatsoever.
