"Gore Effect" on Steroids: Six straight days of record low temperatures during COP16 in Cancun Mexico – more coming

The irony, it burns. Do you think maybe Gaia is trying to send the U.N. and the delegates a message? One record low was funny, three in a row was hilarious, a new record low for the month of December was ROFL, but now six straight days of record lows during the U.N. COP16 Global Warming conference? That’s galactically inconvenient. The whole month so far has averaged below normal:

Here’s today from Weather Underground, Today’s low was 55°F and the old record was 60°F in 1999:

And here are the other 5 days, and more record lows are forecast, see below:

======================================================

The forecast for Cancun is not encouraging:

Existing record lows for the next two days are:

Dec 11 57 °F (2003)

Dec 12 55 °F (2008)

It is likely we will see a full week, possibly 8 days of record lows, and another new all time record low for the month of December is possible also.

I guess they should have been meeting in Lisbon, where they have been setting record highs for most of the past week. 🙂

You would think these guys could find a place that is actually warm to hold a conference on Global Warming. Total incompetence. At least Hansen got the air conditioning turned off back in 88 (?) for his rant.

The politico left , with flawed reports from Bro’s
Headed to Cancun on taxpayer perks , all glows
Enter Al Gore
Which the flawed climate Bro’s adore
Then the true climate arrived , and all Cancun just froze

Since you clearly have no sense of humor, I don’t know either. Lighten up, Francis.

Those looking for a list of Gore Effects:
Either those doing the listings were overwhelmed with trying to keep up or maybe they just grew old and retired.
Another possibility is that their hard drives filled and they need to use a server center.
However, there are some out-of-date lists, such as:

How do we know these records are valid?

Simply because the chances of them “homogenizing” the temperatures in Cancun DOWNWARD are nill to none.

Are they the UHI corrected temperatures? If not, then it is possibly a bigger record.

R. Gates says: Are they related to AGW warming? Possibly. Cold air in areas not used to it is NOT a sign that AGW is not happening…
Thank you. Of course it’s colder because it’s warmer. That’s perfectly gore-ical. Or is the proper terminology gore-ish? Whatever, it fits like O.J.’s glove.

RGates –
The interesting counterepoint to your comment is that where you can say maybe I can say maybe not. Neither of us actually knows and enough has been posted here to suggest that at least the proofs of the warmers have been shown seriously lacking. Just because we have warmer weather in Greenland (funny that name – why is that again) doesn’t mean anything either.
WE must stay amused and make fun of these localized outbreaks of coldness wherever the warmists convene their worship services. We all know local weather is not climate, but since that is what these arrogant statists used to pump up concern, we can’t help but pump up the news of localized cold to show them for the hypocrits they are.

Illuminating content, I don’t know why you bothered. Maybe you have some kind of argument to make? Then make it.

John Doyle,
I don’t know why you bother, either. However I will suggest you skip the posts which are obviously aimed at humor, and focus on the more strict science. Unfortunately there is a bit of humor, even there. So perhaps you are right. You should avoid this site altogether. You wouldn’t want your face to crack.

What is a laugh is that they went south to avoid a repeat of the embarassment of the ice and snow in Copenhagen – hey this is only the beginning of December too. I note that Roy Spencers Tropo temps show only 0.03F lower than that last year. I’m getting a bit skeptical of this data. Does it lag surface temps, anyone?

@R. Gates
‘we’ve been seeing record warmth is areas of the north like Greenland.’
Oh yes a deedy it is very warm. Like -15° C in Thule on the northern west coast and -28° C in Denmarkshavn on the northern east coast.
But I’m sure your demagogue propaganda definition of “record warmth” hold true but in our reality’s relative terms it be a bit more refined a defined.

What’s more inconvenient is the causes behind the cool weather in Cancun. High pressure over the Arctic has once more (like last winter) opened up a pipeline of cold air to the south. At the same time we are seeing record lows in Cancun, we’ve been seeing record warmth is areas of the north like Greenland. Are these related? Probably. Are they related to AGW warming? Possibly. Cold air in areas not used to it is NOT a sign that AGW is not happening…far from it. I think some AGW skeptics should get beyond a simple linear way of thinking of the effects that the 40% increase in CO2 could be having on global weather patterns. One thing that must happen though, if AGW happening is an acceleration of the hydrological cycle. Look for extreme floods, rains, snowfalls, etc.
Asi is usual for a true believer of the CAGW myth, you have got your logic twisted round to suit your doctrine.
Yes, when the planet warms through its normal oscillating cycle of cool, warm, cool…e.t.c, this increases the rate of energy disipation of the hydrological cycle.
This prevents further heating by sending more warmth to the poles where it is lost to space and eventuality this cooling slows down the hydrological heat engine again, which starts warming once more.

“2010 Hottest Year On Record”
Saying the 2010 is the Hottest year on Record indicates that someone does not understand what the word Record means. It means that you have recorded something; you can not record a future event, except in climate scientology.
All the Measured Data for 2010 is not collected, not that it matters to the Believers since the Models for 2010 were completed a long time ago.

It is somehow very funny when certain people shout out record warmth around the arctic when the arctic, apparently, have been thickening of late, what with all that “warming” in the arctic going on. It ought to be above the arctic me thinks if it push’ the cold arctic surface air down further south. It becomes very hilarious when some people actually believe that the yearly weather of the northern climate behaves exactly the same as an earlier year because that year was statistically positive to them.
Hippies?
