I haven’t seen an official announcement, but I believe we probably set a new record low overnight here in central AR. It is 33 here in the suburbs, and Intellicast is reporting 38, while the record low is in the 40’s.
For a view of how widespread the cold weather is in the US, check this out:

Notice the snowfall records are mostly broken the previous records from 1 or 2 years back.

October 18, 2009 5:54 am

These record snow and record low temps in mid-Oct. will hopefully pour some sanity to the world climate “negotiators” and warming bureaucrats when they go to Copenhagen in 1 1/2 months time.

BUT BUT BUT BUT … NOAA said September was the second hottest ever in the world!
(By the way, where I lived showed up slightly warmer than normal. However, our local meteorologists complained several times that the “official” high was too hot on certain days because the official measurement was several degrees warmer than anywhere else nearby. I imagine if it showed up too cold, NOAA and the NWS would quickly fix the problem. But since it gives a desired result, it stays like it is.)

Sign from heaven coming in 12:00 hour. Mother nature is having fun with precise timing.

Here in NH, where we pride ourselves on our thriftiness and stoicism about any early-season cold (just wait, it’ll warm up!) we have had the heat “on” since Monday night (the 12th). Normally we manage to go until at least Nov. 1, but we’ve had temps more like mid-to-late Nov. for almost a week now (though it’s supposed to warm up this coming week, I hear).
Oops, you forgot to say “weather is not climate”. Here come the trolls.

These record snow and record low temps in mid-Oct. will hopefully pour some sanity to the world climate “negotiators” and warming bureaucrats when they go to Copenhagen in 1 1/2 months time.

Why would you expect that? The purpose of Copenhagen isn’t to “fix” anything. It is to break things…specifically our high standard of living.

The usual rejoinder to such data from warmists is that its what’s happening globally, not in any one area that counts. (However, this never stopped them from issuing an incessant stream of “this will be one of the hottest ever” predictions for specific regions which fell flat on their faces.) There must be a time period for, if global warming were really happening, that any one spot on earth, though experiencing varying temperatures over time, would be able to pick up a global warming “signal.” Here in Michigan, it did seem to get warmer through the 1990’s. Over the last ten or more years no sign here of any global warming “signal.” This year temperatures have been chronically and decidedly below average.
How long before just based on everyday observation of weather patterns in one area showing cooling that we can say that statistically speaking, it is highly unlikely that global warming is occurring?
What we have experienced in Michigan over the last thirty years fits solar explanations of climate variability (Svensmark or Willie Soon), with a warming in the latter part of the 20th century coinciding with the solar “modern maximum” that occurred then and cooler temperatures for the last dozen years as the sun has slipped into its present somnolent state. I believe this perspective fits the facts better than that of the warmists with their CO2 theory for which they have no evidence, corrupted temperature data, and worthless computer models that were never tested on any “out of sample” or new data.

I have never seen it like this in Montana. Our “fall colors” are hideous. Most trees are an ugly, dull gray. It got so cold so early (2 degrees F. was probably the low here) that the leaves were frozen and killed while they were still green. The heavy snows we got brought down branches and even trees because the leaves had not fallen off yet and held more snow up than would have been the case later on. I lost part of one tree and am still hauling branches to the dump. Early snows are very common here at about 4000 feet elevation, but the cold that came with our recent storms was strange for early October.

According to NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center “El Nino in the central and eastern equatorial Pacific Ocean is expected to be a dominant climate factor that will influence the December through February winter weather in the United States, according to the 2009 Winter Outlook”
The NOAA forecast predicts “:Highlights of the U.S. Winter Outlook (December through February) include: Winter Outlook – Temperature
Warmer-than-average temperatures are favored across much of the western and central U.S., especially in the north-central states from Montana to Wisconsin.”

They have shown a Map with most of the USA warmer than usual for that period.
I was curious to see if it was warmer than usual now. So I zoomed in to their 7 day forecast interactive map and saw that snow is likely monday and tuesday in Salt Lake City . Someone here also said it was pretty cold in Oregon. Maybe it will warm up later?
Its not been particularly warm here in New Zealand with snow in spring and Oct. 8, WeatherZone: “Adelaid’s coldest start to October in half a century.” Oct. 16, Reuters: “European cold snap kills four in Poland” shows not particularly warm in Australia and Europe either.
I will be surprised if 2009 turns out to be one of the warmest years of the current warm period as predicted by the warmists.

These can all be explained from strong, but normal warm air advection before the passage of the cold front….also keeping in mind these are over a six-day period.

The NOAA forecast is based on a persistent strong El Nino. This forecast was a godsend for the warmists as it coincided with the Copenhagen conference.
Its beginning to look like it will be weak El Nino, and even possibly be back to La Nina by December though. Too bad for the warmists.

I think one of the striking things about this map are the widespread light blue dots, showing the record low maxima—the majority of the cold records on the map.
This is a difficult feat for Mother Earth to pull off when the angle of the sun is still pretty high.
Not to mention the longevity of the snow events around the country. Take the 6 inches at Penn State over a couple of days.
Bet Professor Mann was staring out his campus office window looking at the snow-laden still-leafy maple branches and scratching his head about hockey sticks.
Nah! Not unlike the blinding whiteouts on the higher ridge tops around State College a few days ago, he and Hansen and others are caught in their own mental, ego-driven whiteout conditions…and absolutely blind to the truth that is staring them in the face, namely: AGW is not Science!

Southern Hemisphere resorts set to re-open .. up to a metre (40 inches) of fresh snow was reported falling on the half dozen glacier ski areas already open for winter 2009-10 in Austria. The snow fell right down to village level in many areas with resorts like Obergurgl reporting 10cm (4 inches) on village streets.
Temperatures are currently in double-figures below zero at most of Europe’s glacier areas and the snow has stopped for now, to reveal clear skies, although more snow is expected at the weekend.

Temperatures up towards the pole are above average, because all the cold poured down here.
The old timers called this “Squaw Winter,” which came before the warmth of “Indian Summer.” A very cold Squaw Winter was often seen as a sort of warning, and people would use the following mild spell to rush about getting firewood stacked, and other pre-winter chores done.

…Reply
We have exactly the same thing in Britain. The kind of brainwashing lunacy we are subjected to on a daily basis can be illustrated by The Telegraph’s website:
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/earthnews/6350795/World-has-less-than-five-years-to-stop-uncontrollable-climate-change—WWF.html
It goes on…
“World has less than five years to stop uncontrollable climate change – WWF
The world has less than five years to get carbon emissions under control or runaway climate change will become inevitable, the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) has warned.
Scientists generally agree that the world could keep temperature rises below a dangerous level of two degrees C (3.6 degrees F) if greenhouse gas emissions are halved by 2050.
However a new report from the WWF found this will require a “green industrial revolution” by 2014, with heavy investment in moving from fossil fuels to ‘low carbon alternatives’ like wind, solar, nuclear and clean coal.
It will also mean switching to electric cars and other green technologies and improving energy efficiency by insulating our homes and wasting less electricity.
The stark warning comes as ministers and officials from around the world meet in London for the Major Economies Forum. The MEF was set up by President Obama to give ministers an opportunity to thrash out difficult issues before the world meets in Copenhagen in December to agree a new deal on climate change.
Ed Miliband, the Energy and Climate Change Secretary, will be putting pressure on rich countries, including the US, to sign up to legally-binding targets to cut carbon emissions. The Prince of Wales is hosting a dinner to lobby ministers to sign up to innovative new measures to reduce deforestation, including plans to pay poorer countries not to chop down trees.
The WWF said both rich and poor countries need to start investing in renewable energy and encouraging behaviour change among citizens in order to meet the targets.
The report used economic models to calculate how long it would take for a low carbon industry to grow to a point where it is big enough to cut emissions by 50 per cent.
Keith Allott, Head of Climate Change at WWF UK, said any industry will only grow by 30 per cent every year so the world has to invest in a low carbon industry now to allow the sector to grow to a point where it takes over from fossil fuels by 2050.
He said the UK Government’s current policy does not provide enough incentives for investing in renewables or saving energy.
“Clean industry sectors can only expand so far, so quickly. If we wait until later than 2014 to begin aggressively tackling the problem, we will have left it too late to ensure that all the low-carbon solutions required are ready to roll out at the scale needed if we intend to keep within the world’s remaining carbon budget,” he said.
“This report is a compelling reminder of the scale of effort and the speed of action needed if we’re going to make the global transition towards low and zero carbon economies before it’s too late.”
In a separate report think tank the New Economics Foundation said it will cost the world up to £2.5 trillion to deal with the consequences of climate change like floods, drought and water shortages by 2050. However “rapid decarbonisation’ such as replacing fossil fuels with renewables, will avoid up to £1.3 trillion in environmental costs.
The International Panel on Climate Change recommends that the world cuts carbon emissions in half by 2050 to stand a good chance of keeping temperature rises below two degrees C.”

This is VERY difficult to do around here this time of year as:
1) The sun angle is still pretty high and our latitude is relatively low.
2) The temperature of the mighty Chesapeake Bay (and upwind from us) is still 65 degrees.
3) Global Warming is occurring (har har).
Shows the power of these direct discharges of Arctic air when they first steamrolled across the North American continent a week ago and before…even though the air is modified now for us in the SE.
If this event would have happened the same time in December, the SE US (and the NE) would be digging out from a prolonged, cold, heavy snowfall.
And don’t forget, not one, but TWO weeks ago today….parts of the PAC NW were covered in a thick white coat of snow….barely into October.

Run-away global warming is assumed as a fact and schizophrenic talk emanates from this assumption.
In order to “save the world” we must create a commodity out of thin air and tax it. We must tax energy the very basic commodity that helps us to produce and have our quality of life. We must shift money away from productive industries into non-productive ones, based not on economic reasons but on ideological ones – the surest way to get poor fast.
The Global scam is that cap n trade is about ecology, when it is about tax and nothing about the ecology.
The richest nations have the best quality of air and water, the poorest nations have the worst. We can afford to preserve our forests the poor nations chop them down. If we want to save the world we cant do it by getting poor.
As someone said “You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else…You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.”

Here’s an interesting comparison of Contiguous USA October temps, from 1895 until now.
Got this from sullivanweather’s blog on Wunderground.
http://english.wunderground.com/blog/sullivanweather/comment.html?entrynum=234
Scroll down to the National Contiguous Temperature graph…
This graph is most interesting, besides comparing Octobers, of course, there is NO hockey stick.
Just a nice sine up and down motion.
And I’ll bet once this October is done it will show on the cold side.

With so much of the country expected so far below normal through the first two week of the month, will the record for the coldest October on record fall?
To answer we need to look back at the coldest October on record – 1925. Does this October bear any resemblance to October of that year?
Thus far, yes.”

How cold, and for how long, and in how many places does it have to be before we are below average in temperature. It seemed, 2009 was very cold in a lot of places, but we are still way above average temp all the time. Back in the days when we were below average, the continent must have had permafrost all the way to the tropics

In the midst of all the blue dots, there are three red dots (max temps), 2 on the western Virginia border, one on the Tennessee/Kentucky border. Why would they have high temp records in the midst of all the low maximums? Would it be appropriate to investigate these three stations to see if they have unusual heat island effects??

This chart spans the past week, and earlier on, before the passage of the cold front, there was some warm air advection in the East ahead of the front…nothing unusual really.

rbateman (12:51:18): Something [fishy] is going on.
The Sun has been in the output deficit mode for about 3 years. The Golden Years of a Warm Earth are about to be repossessed.

Let’s do some simple math. First we can assume that the variable heat input in the sun cycle is a perfect cosine function with period 11.1 year:
Qsun = Qmax•cos(t/T) = Qmax•cos(t/11.1)
Then we can further assume that the overall global temperature is simply given by the first law of thermodynamics:
m•cp•dT/dt = Qsun = Qmax•cos(t/11.1)
The temperature then becomes:
T = Qmax•sin(t/11.1)/(m•cp) + T0
Sine and cosine are a quarter period out of phase, thus the delay between the two curves is 11.1/4 = 2.8 years which is quite close to the 3 years of rbateman.

El Nino Winter
weather by seablogger
NOAA has come out with a forecast for an El Nino dominated winter: cool and stormy in the South, including Florida; wet in California; mild and dry in the north and northwest. I do not agree at present. I am not persuaded that El Nino will strengthen and persist, as NOAA models indicate. This has been an odd El Nino event, starting in May, and showing an asymmetrical distribution of oceanic warmth, with a large warm pool north of the equator in the East Pacific. (This is where hurricane Rick formed.) Recently, patches of cool anomaly have been appearing right in the middle of the El Nino belt. I suspect an early end to this El Nino, and a quick diminution of its effects on North American weather. But we shall see, we shall see.

Global warming/climate change has been the topic for these past few days. If you surf the internet you will see so many sites about it. The whole world is affected by it. I myself have a story to tell – About three weeks ago, we were hit by two very strong storms. We never had that in decades. They left our country with still so many flooded areas, a lot were homeless and lost so many loved ones. Until now, we are still sweeping the streets from mud and tons of ruined appliances drowned from the flood. The effects of those twin storm were devastating. It’s not wet season for us here, but we we were informed that we are still expecting four more storms on this last quarter of the year. And just this morning, local news says, weeks from now, we are expecting a strong earthquake to hit the metro city including the nearby provinces. This is the same Metro city hit by the twin storms. And the news says its all because of global warming/climate change. I’m blithely about the issue before, but when the twin storm hit us plus all the bad news, I thought, I must do something too. To solve the global warming problem, it must be stormed at the national and international levels.But the total success is built upon the action of every individual, regardless of nationality, to conserve energy and live in a greener, cleaner community.

Weather and Climate.
We often read here that weather is not climate. The statement in quite correct, yet weather is the face of the climate, the phenomenon which we humans experience first hand. It is the daily code which we average Joes & Josephines use to evaluate, rightly or wrongly, our view of the climate. The professional weather people like to keep track of surface pressure patterns and movement, citing “The trend is your friend”.
2009 is the year the Bermuda high and the pacific high pressure systems fell apart! Well, not completely, but the patterns have been ill formed most of the year to present. A useful current view can be seen here: http://moe.met.fsu.edu/tcgengifs/ using the gfdl panel in loop mode.
The pressure gradients create the winds; winds move water, and water moves heat. That is the weather/climate connection for me. Annual changes in surface winds affect ocean surface circulation characteristics as in; velocity of movement, thermal absorption/dissipation (duration of thermal source exposure).
The other major player is the northern hemisphere Jet Stream; https://www.fnmoc.navy.mil/efs/cgibin/efs_loop.cgi?strt=0&incr=24&stop=240&imagePrefix=US058VMET-GIFwxg.EFS.nh_sc_5640_&title=EFS%20500%20HPa%20Single%20Contour%20Probability ,
(Note; The Navy and Microsoft do not play well together but, since I am not a party to the certificate dispute, I use it anyway.)
Weather events, fueled by high and low pressure cells, form on either side of the Jet Stream. The seasonal latitude position, stability (loopy-ness), and the velocity (intrinsic energy) move the pressure systems. These two sites provide in a way, an illustration of the daily pulse of the climate.
Many years of weather watching prompts me to use an old cliché as it truly applies, ‘things are different this time’. The major earth climate entities, oceans, jet stream, and atmosphere, appear to be losing energy, i.e. slowing down and cooling.
As to ‘who dunnit’? the jury is still out and I expect will remain so for some time.
Meanwhile, down here on the ranch in a time of change, the opportunists are in full siren song, “Follow me, for I am the Path”. When one is enmeshed in the emotion of the argument (it’s not a debate any longer), the view is lost.

Our local ham radio club participated by setting up an HF station. One of the contacts on Saturday afternoon was an Alaskan station.

UHH….yep they ARE indeed legitimate, James.
But your record maxima pale in comparison to the converse….so do you really have an argument here?
To be fair though…it can be explained as so much warm air being squashed against a deep polar trough. Nothing unusual considering.
Here is the best explanation yet:
We are likely seeing this record hot October in Florida because of a counter reaction to how cold the atmosphere is across the vast majority of North America, the typical northward migration of mild air in October which normally covers the USA still, even now, is squashed by very cold air that’s dominated the overall picture throughout this past summer and was established a few years ago thanks in part to the La Nina of 2008. Same for here in Western Europe, the vast pool of cold air driving into the European Alps is redircting the warmth towards Britain and the low countries of Western Europe. There is still plenty of warm air around, it must go somewhere and if it can’t, you then see record heat develop as well as unusual warmth in unusual places.”
From Mark Vogan on his blog…..thanks Mark.
Meanwhile James….if you want to form a legitimate argument….you need to set forth legitimate concerns.
Your HOT FLORIDA concern….in light of the rest of the USA being rather BLUE…is not significant.
Even so, the even if it was….the ghost of the AMO still haunts the SE USA like a warm sultry Charleston Spanish-moss draped night….and is a good explanation as any as to the warmth in the SE.
It will not go way easily.

I picked a random date- 9/20
The number of heat records broken would have made meant more instead of an ratio. Did you know that taking a longer period of time would have been more fair?
Also, why did you pick a day in a warm month?

syphax (21:30:21) :
(12 days in a row over 40 deg C), would that change your opinion of anything?
Does the data showing that warming ended in 1998, 11 years ago, change your opinion of anything?

Notice that almost all these record lows are not in the major cities in their respective states? A few airports were thrown in for good measure.
Could it be that the UHI effect kept the major cities from breaking record lows?

It is interesting to note that Weather stations across America have become a accurate source of Temperature measurement 🙂

When the bias is to the high side, low reports are notable.
When the bias is to the high side, high reports are mistakes.

Yeah he backed into that corner a while back….but thanks for pointing out again the obvious…and the glaring truth for that matter!

So there can be no record high temperatures, interesting.
Somebody should tell Florida that all their thermometers are faulty.

For the year, 2009, will be coldest one since 1997.
Really? Here in Slovakia we had Jan-Feb close to average (=cold 1960-90 baseline), very warm April (+4 deg C above), average (=cold) June, 1-2 deg C above May-September and now under average October, even its first decade was warm. So up to now, 2009 average is similar to previous years.

Talk of slanted news – Gordon Brown warns of climate ‘catastrophe’ “Negotiators have 50 days to ‘save the world’ from global warming” – is the fellow just plain stupid? or maybe he also wants the Nobel Peace Prize.
Lets see how temperatures pan out in December, specially in Copenhagen. It wouldn’t be a good look if they are snowed under while arguing for Global Warming, though it did Al Gore no harm when he braved an ice storm to testify about Global warming in the senate and Hansen when he protested during a blizzard.

Over at Accuweather Joe Bastardi has been looking at two winters which grew out of a similar pattern, 1951-1952 and 1976-1977. The first was quite mild in the USA northeast, while the second was one of the worst I remember.
Mr. Bastardi suggests the key may well be when the El Nino fades. If it fades now the 1951-1952 winter’s mildness may be in store, but if the El Nino pulses back to borderline-moderate, and then fades during the winter, the east coast will shudder like it did in 1976-1977. Mr. Bastardi was leaning towards the 1976-1977 winter.
I lived on the coast of Maine back then, and recall I could walk over a mile out onto Casco Bay, on the sea ice. Meanwhile it was warm up in Alaska, for the jet stream looped far to the north, and then plunged all the way down to the Gulf of Mexico. As I recall there was sea ice even down in Chesapeke Bay.
Winters are like snowflakes; no two are alike, but if this coming winter resembles 1976-1977 a lot of US population centers will be rolling their eyes at the media, for the media will (of course) be focusing on the warmth in Alaska, and ignoring the sea-ice in east coast ports. I’m not even sure the sea-ice in Deleware bay or Boston Harbor gets counted, when east coast winters are especially harsh, but I’m sure less ice up in Alaska will be duely noted, by the people who measure sea-ice.
If a lobe of cold bulges south in the east of the USA, there are often bulges of cold curving south over central Europe and over eastern Asia. Large population centers such as Berlin and Tokeyo would be effected. However when the warmer temperatures in places like Alaska are averaged in, the world-wide average might come in slightly above average, at least until the El Nino fades.
I would guess the satellite readings might be colder, for they would miss the warmer poles. GISS would, of course, make some “temperature adjustments,” and next winter will be “the X warmest ever.” However the people shivering in population centers will get tired of hearing how warm it is world-wide. When you are freezing your bleep off, the last thing you want to hear your elected representative talk about is how warm it is in Alaska.
A winter like 1951-1952 would be best for me, for I have to work outside, and my circulation isn’t as good as it used to be. However I’m actually hoping for a winter like 1976-1977, because I feel the politicians need to squirm a bit. They think they can control the weather, when they can’t even control their spending or their selves? Egos like that need some deflation.

“Patrick Davis (22:13:17) :
It was 47c in Ashfield, NSW, January 1st 2005. And in the SE part of Australia I live in, it’s been pretty cool these last few summers since. As I mentioned before, long ago in anther thread, last summer, there was a significant drop in the number of flies around (The Aussie wave). I’ll be taking note this summer too.”
Correction, that was Jan 1st 2006. I just closed all the doors and windows and remained in doors, but at least, it was very dry humidity wise, hot yes oh yes, but dry.

Interesting that the Earth weather is stuck in the same slow progress as the Solar Cycle is stuck in it’s slow progress.
Images of those super-tall highs and lows reaching from the Baja to Alaska at times.
Climate Change you can believe in: Watts Up outside your window.
1976-77 was a stuck weather pattern. Only back then, it was the Eastern half of the country what got whacked.
Now, look at the map of this topic.

“syphax (21:30:21) :
If you guys were in SE Australia in January (12 days in a row over 40 deg C), would that change your opinion of anything?

No. A run of 40+C days occurs frequently across most of Australia.
Although, on the same day as the subject of this post 10th October, Perth Western Australia had its hottest 10th Oct on record, 36C. That was after the coldest September in 20 years.
My point being, that cherry picking data proves nothing.
This data is noise; this post is noise.”
Data is never noise. Noise is something that it is in data. But a nice scientific sounding derogatory comment. Ever thought about becoming a climate scientist, syphax? It’s a great career for people who can bandy around psuedo-scientific terms like they know what they are talking about.

The Adelaide airport has a long temperature history. It is located within the city but near enough to the ocean that there is almost no UHI effect.
http://data.giss.nasa.gov/cgi-bin/gistemp/gistemp_station.py?id=501946720004&data_set=1&num_neighbors=1
SA had a high temperature run last year, along with the rest of Australia; but it doesn’t appear to show up on the average temperature record.
Temperatures this winter have been cooler much longer than the last few years. Not really “climate”, but it should have people here in Australia questioning the Theory of Global Warming.
Cheers,
