BEIJING (Reuters) – Exceptionally cold weather sweeping through China has caused a huge increase in power demand in the world’s largest energy consumer and hampered transportation.
Frigid weather across north Asia has caught utilities and liquefied natural gas importers off guard as demand for power lowered inventories and pushed spot prices to record levels.
China’s Central Meteorological Station released the first cold warning in 2021 earlier in the week to several regions. Cities such as the eastern port city of Qingdao recorded the lowest temperature in history and the capital city Beijing had coldest day since the 1960s on Jan 7.

At least nine provincial grid systems in northern China saw peak power load hitting historic highs this week, according to China’s State Grid.
China’s industrial belt, where a stunning manufacturing recovery from the coronavirus pandemic boosted energy demand, experienced a temporary power crunch in the last cold snap in December.
(Graphic: China’s power demand:



“The (latest) historic peak load came as extreme cold weather increased demand for electricity-powered heating facilities, which account for 48.2% of total load,” an official from the State Grid told state television on Thursday.
China has been replacing coal burning with gas- or electricity-fueled heating devices as part of a campaign to combat air pollution in its smog-prone northern regions.
The only remaining coal-fired power plant in Beijing, managed by state-backed China Huaneng Group as a backup power source, resumed operations two weeks ago in order to meet the surging electricity demand.
Gas demand also surged in northern parts of China, where gas is now a dominant heating fuel for more than 20 million homes, with prices touching multi-year highs last month even as the country imported record levels of LNG cargoes.
This is what the warmista think the whole world should be like.
A new cold war has begun.
See? The new ice age is HERE!!! Just kidding 😉 This was predicted and expected and it’s part of -WAIT!- variability. The direct cause is a sudden warming in the stratosphere, just to make deniers even more confused. Mother Nature has a lovely sense of humor 🙂

Only confused person is you.
Hope you have a nice harsh winter, and many more to follow.
It is what you wish for, after all.
Warm is “climate changeᴸᴼᴸ”
Cold is “variability”
We are well aware of the AGW memes.
Yep,and she absolutely REFUSES to follow the AGW cult religion.
Remember, Fred, according to our new friend A-holist, record low temperatures are now evidence for AGW.
Ummmm…. doesn’t that kind of violate a couple of laws of physics or something. Just askin’ because my cat has been pestering me for an extra blanket since Dec. 20, and it isn’t even very chilly so far. Mid to low 30s (Fahrenheit) is not a particularly chilly temp level, y’know. Now, if I find that we’ve had enough snow to make my neighbor dig out my front steps, because the snow is piled up against my storm door, that’s a respectable snowfall. And cold, too. Haven’t seen a really bad winter snow since 2011, and that one made me glad I could stay home.
Relax Sara, it doesn’t violate any laws of moronicity. nyolci can keep on rockin’.
nyolci’s fraudulent red herring sophistry where allegedly their global warming priests predicted it would get cold…
Where!?
Those press release shysters only predict natural variability after they get slapped repeatedly by Mother Nature’s refusal to keep warming.
Each time, the predictors failed, often repeatedly, and alarmists were forced to issue new pal reviewed research that allows for global warming failures and reversals.
Never mind that weather people and non-alarmists have repeatedly pointed to history as indicators for the future. Something alarmists especially alarmists who start their global warming during the 20th Century’s cold period, have refused to accept.
The trouble is, if you point to history and especially contemporaneous literature (true empirical evidence), then their claim of unprecedented is blown out the window. They can only pull a Mikey Mann once without starting to look suspicious. The “nature trick” no longer fools anyone.
“Mother Nature has a lovely sense of humor 🙂”
Such a lively sense of humor that she melted the permafrost for several thousand years during the mid-Holocene without the help of those nasty Trumpers burning fossil fuels. And you CAN’T STAND IT!
In case you forgot … or continue to deny.
Never forget, never forgive (and never deny)! 😉 Dave, I think I have explained this to you at least 2 or 3 times. It’s not that complicated, even you can understand it! Work on it harder!
You did explain what exactly ?
You will say to be able to explain s.th. ?
LOL 😀
That this above is in line with scientific evidence. This poor idiot keeps posting this. During the Holocene Climatic Optimum polar regions were generally warmer than today. Globally, the earth was not warmer as per reconstructions.
If global temperatures were not warmer during the Holocene Climate Optimum, why were global sea levels much higher then?
https://notrickszone.com/2017/05/08/10-new-papers-sea-levels-1-6-meters-higher-4000-6000-years-ago/
Speakin about poor idiots, another contender:
The recent warming is very quick in geological timescales. We are not in equilibrium, far from it. Sea level has to catch up. This is it. Explained the nth time. It’s not that hard.
Nyolci, your views on past sea level are not shared by any credible scientists. I am still waiting to see your evidence that polar regions were warmer during the Holocene Climate Optimum but global temperatures were not warmer than today. I would be fascinated by the underlying physics behind this bizarre idea.
And the polar regions were measured ? 😀
What BS
If I understand your question right (you can never know with cretins), yes. The polar regions were measured with proxy based reconstruction. The same stuff you bring up all the time when you come up with the Holocene Climatic Optimum.
Nyolci, you do realise the absurdity of your position, don’t you? If the polar regions were warmer during the Holocene Climate Optimum but global temperatures were not warmer than today, this means that the rest of the world must have been colder than today. Somehow, this all occurred when sea levels were much higher than today. Could you explain the underlying physics which would warm up the polar regions but cool the rest of the world?
the nye/egotist yet again produce a load of anti-science trash-talk
Hilarious. Your explanation are worth less than s**t.

Try and look up the “Gore Effect”

In related news Google has patented the Memory Asxhole.
And the nyholist heads straight for it.
Fcuk cares about Gore. Look up the “Mann Effect”! The Real Mann!
Still relying on fraudulent gargbage
Poors sicko. !
What is it about progressives? Are they required to have their sense of humor surgically removed?
Regardless, the trolls are the first to declare that any heat wave is proof of global warming. griff is still crowing because some town in Siberia broke it’s old warmest day record by 1C last summer.
Anyway, nobody hear denies that the weather changes, that’s your pathetic lie, what we deny is the claim that CO2 is the primary cause of this change. The only source that supports the claim that CO2 drives climate are the models. Models which proclaim more than twice the heating seen so far. Models that fail every attempt at validation.
Not to mention the fact that over the historical record there is no correlation between CO2 levels and temperature.
But keep telling yourself that you are the smart one. You have to do what you can to preserve what’s left of your ego.
As I said before..

“Talk sense to a fool and he calls you foolish…. ”
Euripides had clearly been exposed to such people. Skeptics are full of doubts. We know what we don’t know, while the alarmists insist they have all the answers “the science is settled”. There are only a few pesky details to work out so they can get busy with the task of mitigation.
Yeah, I know you doubt science. Even the fundamental laws of physics. This is a wonderfully inconsistent position. You would see it if you were able to use your brain. Literally anything you do is a basic test for these laws. And somehow we’ve never heard of accidents where they at least suspect that -say- the Law of Energy Conservation was violated.
Yeah, you’ve mastered ignorance. Now you have a black belt.
Whether you like it or not, this is the scientific position. Period. This is the nice thing with science, as soon as scientists have proven something there is no room for bullshiting. You may claim it’s not proven but the “settled” part is all about that: the proof has been found solid.
“Whether you like it or not, this is the scientific position. Period.”
No, that is the AGW true believers position and little about that has the first thing to do with science.
The only proof here is you proving that Euripides understood people like you. Please demonstrate the scientific proof of AGW. Good luck! So far you’ve failed to falsify the null hypothesis.
and
Remember the NASA page? A summary of the summary of the IPCC report that in turn was a summary of the field?
“Please demonstrate the scientific proof of AGW.”
So, that’s a no! You’re unable to prove AGW. Thought not. A “summary of the field” is hardly a proof. Might as well provide a summary of astrology. It’s about as informative.
You have never presented any science.
You have trained hard as a village idiot, but haven’t reached that level yet.
You know nothing of “science”.
There is no evidence for warming by atmospheric CO2.. you have proven that.
You seem to find plenty of room for bullshitting in every post you make.
So funny that you still haven’t managed to answer 2 simple questions by producing actual real science
You have been an utter failure so far.
Let’s try again..
You do know that the longer you run around like a headless chook, the more stupid you look, don’t you
1… Do you have any empirical scientific evidence for warming by atmospheric CO2?
2… In what ways has the global climate changed in the last 50 years , that can be scientifically proven to be of human released CO2 causation?
What is it about “progressives”? Well, they think that HEAT creates cold weather, which is a serious violation of the basic laws of physics. Cold is, to put it simply, the ABSENCE of heat.
If you try to ‘splain it to them, their eyes glaze over and they stick their fingers in their ears.
They simply can’t handle the TRUTH: Hoomans have NO control over weather or the climate or anything else that this planet wants to whack us with. It interferes with their need for control of stuff that they can’t control, like trying to figure out how to stop volcanoes from erupting.
Speaking of volcanoes, we have a bunch going off. Aren’t those associated gases the kind that tend to block the Sun and reduce its heat transmissions???? Just askin’, because my cat is worried that blankets will run out before long.
No, it’s not the progressives. Scientists say that.
No….. “climate scientistsᴸᴼᴸ” say that
Not “scientists”
Do try to distinguish opposites.
No. Most of them never developed one in the first place.
Remember humans are basically primates. Primates express nervousness by ‘smiling’. It signals ‘I don’t know what your intent is, so just as a reminder, here are my teeth that I may bite you with’.
Humans have more advance communication methods. ‘Smiling’ at each other became ‘Hey, I am nervous, and you are nervous, so… neither of us actually wants to fight… so… GOOD!’ and rather than smiling to express nervousness we would smile to request friendship.
The extension of this is that laughter became a way of causing mutual smiling and defusing any aggression, so having a good sense of humour became something that was useful when attempting to interact with strangers.
So why do Conservatives have sense of humour?
Because are people who want to be left alone to do what is best for them and those they love and care for. They don’t agree unless they can see mutual advantage.
(You should paint your house white – reflects the hot sun = Good idea, thanks for the suggestion. You should paint your house Green in honour of Greta’s climate protest = yeah… no. Waste of paint, no thanks.)
So because they are constantly dealing with people who don’t automatically agree with them they learn to joke with each other to first establish some common ground.
Progressives by comparison believe they know the correct answers, that the world would be a better place if only they were in charge and everything should be fair and just (provided they are the one’s enforcing the rules). People who don’t agree with them are clearly WRONG and are not to be interacted with AT ALL.
Hence they have little need for humour because they see no need to interact with strangers who are clearly WRONG in everything they say.
Also jokes are deeply offensive. Hashtag safe space. Hashtag snow flake. Hashtag internet gas.
Liberals are devoid of humor, automatons that lie for a living. They’ve become the very brunt of jokes! Everyone who has predicted GW continuously and scared everyone for nothing should have to live around Fairbanks Alaska for the rest of their lives.
Who cares about progressives?
This was not trolling. I just pointed out that this was a simple and long predicted weather phenomenon. I’ve enlightened you.
are the first to declare that any heat wave is proof of global warming.
Who would do that???
I’ve never seen griff doing anything like this. Single occurences of extreme weather is just variability. You may have mixed up these with those when griff pointed out persistent and long going trends.
Nobody claimed you deny that. We claim you deny science (and climate change).
Well, no. FYI deniers never cease to surprise normal people. Okay, quickly: models are just a tool of climate science and quite a bulk of its results are actually not model results. FOR FCUKIN EXAMPLE the Hockey Stick. That’s a reconstruction, and it’s not based on modelling. Another result that is just partially model-based is the attribution of already experienced warming (ie. that’s why we know it’s anthropogenic). The basic energy-accounting is quite clear without modelling but models reinforce what we know.
Yes, there’s a very good correlation (that Middleton guy or whoever tried to claim no correlation), furthermore we know it without modelling.
I feel the bitterness of the always outwitted person 🙂
What a monumental waste of space that rant is…
Correlations… ROFLMAO you mean anti-correlation.. right ???
You still haven’t learnt enough to wake up to the FACT that the hockey stick is based on statistical malpractice and fraud….. So sad you are so, so dumb and gullible
Ok muppet, what do we “deny” that you can produce solid scientific proof for..
be careful , that means that you have to actually produce evidence rather than just more mindless bluster.
Yep it has been with you all your life.
So sad to be you.
Give them all hockey sticks and send them to Greenland.
The Siberian town was Verkhoyansk. The story of the snow they got following the heat is at: http://siberiantimes.com/other/others/news/pole-of-cold-district-that-recently-recorded-desert-like-heat-of-38c-now-sees-snow/
Who predicted record low temperatures as a result of AGW?
I’m sure one of them has at some stage.
Just to make sure they cover all eventualities.
The more wildly variant your predictions, the more chance one of them will come true
That is the AGW game.. … unfalsifiable… ie NOT science
Trying to aim at the barn door and mostly they still miss the barn completely.
The key word: “Unfalsifiable”
Well said.
Take that as example of many others.
or that
Or with the name “Rahmstorf”
No one. Scientists predicted increasing AVERAGES.
Any questions abou that ?
or that ?
And what’s about that ‘?
Temperature AVERAGES, or what do y o u mean ?
Yes. No one claimed there would be no no never occasional very cold weather. I think it was 2007 when cold records broke in Asia and the whole year globally was the warmest on record. (It was around 2007, but I can’t remember exactly.)
I don’t think the link shows what you think it shows, nyolci: Same stratospheric conditions last winter, with no vortex breakout. CliSci is wonderful; heads I win, tails you lose.
I don’t think you really know what I think. It was explained in the article, this split phenomenon very likely causes extreme cold for a long time but not always. The split was predicted for last Wednesday, it did happen that day, and the onset of cold should’ve started quickly in Europe. Weather is a nice chaotic thing, it started 2 days later in North East Asia. (This is from a Hungarian article.)
That’s what we expect the coming days.
What do you think will be the graph for January 2021 ?
Yep, you are totally confused on a mental level. !
Down to the non-functional level.
Pretty sure you DON’T think, nor are you capable of it.
The Norwegian Blue wants his brain back.
But then how would you continue your comedy sketches.
The Earth is cooling after a couple of decades of an unusually active Sun coinciding with cycles in their warm phases. There is a lag from when the Sun turns quiet and atmospheric temperatures start cooling. During the warm phase, water vapor increases and as it makes its way to the Arctic the temperatures increase as the air can hold more heat with higher humidity. But ultimately this will find its way out of the system as the polar regions radiate the heat out to space.
La Niña has taken the source of very warm water moving into the North Pacific away and it is just a matter of time before everything cools. The problem is as the winters get colder people suffer more.. a lot more. And they are coming. Let’s just hope there isn’t a big volcano go off or it can be catastrophic.
Or even worst a Carrington type event, considering our magnetic field has already weaken at least fifteen percent. In todays environment powerlines from coast to coast, would be catastrophic as well.
The Earth is cooling after a couple of decades of an unusually active Sun coinciding with cycles in their warm phases.
No. This is the scientific position. But I have a question. This may be your hunch feeling but how do you have evidence? Didn’t it occur to you that anything about solar activity or its connection with temperature/climate (and the reconstruction of these) is also the same scary science you claim to be cheating/”notsettled”/fcukknows?
This is a wonderful gem of basic scientific illiteracy.
Explanation for that ?

Life thrives in warm weather and dies in cold weather.
Of course, a few years ago, a COOLING stratosphere was held to be distinctive signature of anthropogenic global warming…
🙂 Another proof that I was right. I claimed this would confuse deniers, and it did. I didn’t claim it was a proof of AGW.
”This was predicted and expected and it’s part of -WAIT!- variability.”
IDIOT! You can’t predict variability coz it’s….wait for it…….variable.
Wonderful!!! 😉 You exposed so many problems I literally salivate to point out! Thanks! Where to begin…
roflmao.
yet another EMPTY, science-free rant
slop-stick comedy at its worst.
You have taken us far into the weeds with this polar “vertex” variability. I just want you to tell me why in the Eemian hippos basked in the Thames at 280ppm but at 410ppm we have only seals and the occasional dolphin?
Sorry, wrong alarmist. It was meant for loydo but you all look so much alike you know. But maybe you have ideas that loydo don’t.
Yeah, rephrasing always helps 🙂
Don’t forget that giraffe that was using its head as a periscope.
”Mother Nature has a lovely sense of humor
https://www.complex.com/life/2021/01/polar-vortex-could-split-in-two-harsh-winter”
Is this the ”science” you keep dribbling about?
Which of course is “unprecedented”
That looks like the dominant weather pattern that formed the ice sheets.
No. You don’t deserve that. And you wouldn’t understand anyway.
So, that is you saying that you don’t actually have any science
Thanks, but you have made that patently obvious.
So, do you believe this Chinese cold snap is caused by increased co2 or not?
Are you talking about natural variability in the weather?
Are you claiming the temp spike in the stratosphere – therefore the split polar vortex – therefore the china cold snap is caused by increased co2?
What the f**k are you trying to say by this?……
”The direct cause is a sudden warming in the stratosphere, just to make deniers even more confused. Mother Nature has a lovely sense of humor”
What is your point ?
No, and well, I didn’t claim that. I only claimed that the reason would confuse you, as it really did, see below:
You should’ve realized so far… You’re slow, Mike, you’re slow! I just pointed out that you deniers would treat it as an obvious evidence for why AGW was wrong. But the thing is that this cold spell is entirely in line with climate science, it doesn’t invalidate it, and you should be talking about the often repeated “variability” now.
Still as confused as ever, I see. Just as I was instructing you on another thread; before you even begin to describe the anthropogenic effects of local climates, you must first falsify the null hypothesis. It must be the dominant hypothesis until you can. That’s what you’re seeing, natural variation. You just acknowledged it when you mentioned “variability”. It was variability that made it slightly warmer and variability that will make it colder. However the general trend of the Holocene has been gradual cooling. Humans have not made any apparent or measurable difference to that trend at all.
You lost the debate before you even began … out of your own mouth.
Oops, was that instructing? I thought it was bullshiting 😉
Ugh, it WAS bullshiting, I was right.
Rory, if I was talking to you, I would speak slowly, always ascertaining you understand each and every word, even articles and copulas etc. I’m not talking to you but you should know I write this very slowly for the same effect 🙂
The null hypothesis has been falsified already, see https://climate.nasa.gov/climate_resources/26/graphic-the-ipccs-four-key-findings/ the first highlight, it says (with different words) that the null hypothesis has a probability of 5% to explain the warming of the last 50 years. This comes from the IPCC. So stop whining about this at last.
Yeah, ‘cos you love that, don’t you? It’s like multiculturalism, you must love that too.
Yes it was instruction. I can’t be held responsible for your inability to grasp basic concepts of science. You should pay more attention to the help others on this platform have been offering you, free of charge.
Actually, it says no such thing. Just because you can’t decipher the baby talk NASA has provided to true believers like yourself, doesn’t mean you can ‘paraphrase’ it to rewrite the meaning. The null hypothesis cannot be falsified by statistical artifacts and other projections. To falsify a premise, relying on real data, one must use empirical evidence, not projections … but you Lefties are always projecting, aren’t you?
An inappropriate link to a pseudo-science web site is not an argument. Either provide a falsification of the null hypothesis or concede.
Oh, well played … you managed to seamlessly combine your straw man with a non sequitur. Do you people have a book on ‘How to Use Logical Fallacies Creatively”?
Sorry, I didn’t realize that! I promise I obey! 🙂
Sorry again, I didn’t know that. And what else did I not know? That they didn’t use empirical evidence. Now I know they used data they had pulled out of thin air. Climate science is devastated… 😉
No, I’m simply this talented 🙂
Forgive my naivete/ignorance, but is the polar stratospheric warming an instance of the earth venting heat into space?
Genuine (if unintentionally silly) question.
Earth is constantly venting heat into space in one form or another (via heat radiation), even on the bright side. So in this sense the answer is trivially yes, specifically no (ie. this is not the only place and time that Earth is venting heat). Anyway, the truth is that the significance of this phenomenon is beyond me, we should ask experts.
They’ve had it bad in Spain too. So bd it made it to the TV News on the BBC, Harrabin getting ready to blame it on Climate Change as I type. Probably too late for Tom Heap and Countryfile to get a CC excuse in.

Storm Filomena has blanketed parts of Spain in heavy snow, with half of the country on red alert for more on Saturday.
Road, rail and air travel has been disrupted and interior minister Fernando Grande-Marlaska said the country was facing “the most intense storm in the last 50 years”.
Michael Mann has already beat everyone to it. He said some time ago that even if temperatures cooled for a decade or two, it would not invalidate Human-caused Climate Change.
He’s covering all the bases in advance.
As I recall, he said that during ” the pause”, not before. Of course they adjusted the pause away.
I don’t remember exactly when he said it, but I would say it was within the last year. I believe it might have been on Twitter where he said it.
Ask him again in 2050.
Not only snow, in NW of Spain, Vega de Liordes in León, -35,8°C were measured, the deepest temperature ever registerd in Spain.

Perfect chance to live like the ancients! The GW scientist should spend all their time in tents doing field work to figure out how people fare in sub-zero temps over long periods of time.
Just put the ski’s on and have fun! What’s wrong with snow and cold weather? Oh…unless they’re not prepared for it, because of all the fake GW hype! Lol. How are all those off shore wind farms and solar panels doing? Are they providing plenty of energy to heat homes and run businesses. Are people freezing to death, especially the aged?

China can use all their solar panels and windmills for heat 😉
Can they chop them up and burn them in the fireplace to keep warm 🤔

The Right will have to build their own internet infrastructure. Where’s all those Rightwing Billionaires when we need them?
Tom, did you call me…

Trump has already said he was going to take internet communications into his own hands. I assume that would include having his own servers.
But where’s all the other Repubican billionaires? Oh, that’s right, they are chiming in to trash Trump.
Right now progressives are celebrating and higher than a kite…literally. The wall is costing a lot of money. I love a good movie, where the evil one’s are celebrating and all of the sudden, the tide drastically turns on them and a hero saves the day!
Where were they?
They were attending the public crucifixion of a great man.
Yes, the Left is on a feeding frenzy over Trump and the fair-weather Republicans are jumping onboard their train.
It’s a sight to behold. It’s mob psychology in action.
A lot of people have lost their senses. A lot of sensible people have lost their senses.
That’s what happens when the Mob drives the train. People get caught up in the rhetoric and can’t think straight. Which is the purpose of the rhetoric, in the first place.
Human minds are easily manipulated if you have the right tools. The radical Democrats have the right tools. Mainly, they have the Media on their side.
Without the Media pushing the Democrat lies far and wide and 24-hours a day, the Democrats would be nothing. But with the propagarda machine behind them, you see what they can do.
Some people can see through the propaganda and some people can’t. At the present time it looks like those who can’t, outnumber those who can.
Too bad for us.
But things can change.
I sure hope so. I’m one of those who does see what’s happening and watching it unfold in front of me is literally painful … and snippets of Shakespeare keep flashing in my head like electric shocks … “The heartache and the thousand natural shocks
That flesh is heir to” … When I can see the hings you mention taking place so obviously and I can watch others, just as obviously pretending not to see, I have the impulse to throttle someone. I also grieve the loss of real good getting accomplished under this president. He’s a flawed man, but essentially good.
“He’s a flawed man, but essentially good.”
I agree. And his flaws are small. They just look big when the Left describes them.
Trump is the most vetted president we have ever had, and despite his political enemies pulling every dirty trick in the book, they still don’t have anything on him.
Now, they claim Trump was inciting violence on Jan. 6. But if you listen to his speech before the march on the Capital took place, you will hear Trump calling for *peaceful* demonstrations.
I suppose that’s why the Media and the Democrats don’t replay Trump’s speech. Trump does not say what they claim he says. Trump does not incite a riot. If he had, they would be playing his speech over and over again.
So the Media censor his speech to keep people from knowing the truth. The Leftwing Media are dispicable and dangerous because they lie and cause division among the American people.
Yes, the first thing I did when they made those claims was find a source with his speech … the whole speech. He said the exact opposite of what they claim. They did exactly the same thing over and over with his purported endorsement of hate groups. That was even included in the 1st debate where the moderator, Chris Wallace began acting like the grand inquisitor of the auto de fé.
There was a tie the media slipped in a few lies here and there and apologized profusely when caught … “mea culpa, it’ll never happen again”, they’d say. Now they just openly lie in Goebbels’ well practiced method.
The levels of cowardice are unprecedented in US politics. I feel as though the Left are beginning to make their big move to overwhelm Western society. Xi is unique as a leader of China. He’s not introverted and xenophobic as they have always been. He’s actively making his move on the world. Trump was in his way. You can fill in the blanks with the rest of the scenario. This conspiracy is not theoretical. It’s well documented and supported by volumes of evidence.
Reply for what? I think I replied every bs you’d come up with.

Even with al this – you guessed it! 2020 is another warmest year EVUH!
But you have to remember that the dire heating of the earth doesn’t happen where there are people to check, who live there. All this OMG heating is in unpopulated places like both the poles, the mid ocean basins, maybe Siberia.
Like McArthur’s strategy in the Pacific in WW2: “Heat them where they ain’t!”
There has been quite a large change over the last couple of months.
UAH shows 2020 as “up there” as well.
But the La Nina is now starting to bite.
It would not surprise me to see January end as a close to zero anomaly in UAH.
Northern Italy on January, 5
Well…I’ve been freezing down here in the Ozarks of So MO!
I see where Madrid has been fighting record cold snow also.
From that chart in the article it looks like China has had no warming during the entire time the record covers.
CO2 is falling down on the job in China, too, and China is where most of the CO2 originates. They have abundant supplies of CO2 in the air, yet the temperatures are not climbing like alarmist claim.
How do we explain this discrepancy with the Human-caused Climate Change narrative?
It’s a rhetorical question.
Hard to have “green,” when all there is, is white!
I hope Anthony isn’t using Amazon AWS for hosting this website, or another “progressive” web hosting company, or using a bank like J.P. Morgan to pay his bills, or using Visa or Mastercard for taking payments. Because WUWT is about to be deplatformed.
Mark my words. Last week I predicted this would happen within three years. Today, I give it three months, tops.
I’ve been thinking along those lines. Perhaps Anthony could keep a master email list, and send out mass emailings informing us of new links if old ones are disabled, or distribute the email lists so we could circulate the posts ourselves.
If the ‘dark web’, terrorist sites, sites promoting illegal photos and activities, and ‘how to’ sites for weapons of mass destruction can be found on the web, surely a bunch of science and tech nerds can figure out a way to share and distribute information.
Quebec goes full-Nazi – a mandatory curfew – off the streets by 8pm with police enforcement:

Since the West, East, and Southern coastlines will be under water by 2030, where will all the liberals go to live?
China’s dispute with Australia over coal imports wasn’t even mentioned even though recent news items indicate widespread power outages in China’s industrial centers due to lack of coal.
I also question the statement of a “stunning uptick” in economic activity in China with the complete pullout of all of Japan’s investments with subsidies from the Japanese government. The news I resd says China is close to economic collapse and will never reach past levels of pre-pandemoc economic activity. Indeed, most experts predict that within three years, China will no longer be an economic power!
And I hope they’re right!
Three years is more like when the current trend reverses and they start to slide. Large economies are like super tankers. They are slow to turn, unless they hit an iceberg or run aground. But that same momentum means when they turn, it will require big changes to fix the problem.
Ten years from now they will be in bad shape due to their extreme demographic problems. Command and control is great, until it isn’t. And when it isn’t, it is extremely “isn’t”. Any one still remember Mao’s “Great Leap Forward”. It was the lemming version.
In Subic Bay, PH right now it is downright chilly. Our weather this time of year blows down from China, Korea and Siberia on the Northeast Monsoon. Driven to wear a sweater on the veranda last night. First time in 6 years living here needing a sweater.
😂😂😂😂🤣
“The only remaining coal-fired power plant in Beijing, managed by state-backed China Huaneng Group”
Just like California or Germany, pretend coal free power. In reality they import loads of coal fired electricity from the region. China has 4442 coal power stations, more than the rest of the world combined. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1I8GeKEfxPpwkQ_t0GQZx1GQm6MASclEtEtrQX3Y1nNc/edit#gid=0
I was told recently by the Climate Alarmists that China was now fully compliant with CO2 reduction. No way that’s true! Lol
It looks like we’ll be getting our own dose of Arctic air here in the eastern US soon enough. Down to single digits F tonight here in my little piece of Indiana.
According Griff it either goes in the flooding bucket or the summer heat wave bucket. If you are unsure which bucket the cold and snow belongs in, just go silent or label it delayed flooding.
so….-3 F? hell I am in a heat wave and its been 20f at night.
Welcome back to the 60s and then on to the 20s. Never mind, your fearless deadender-type headline writers will hold fast to dreams of future hellish worlds of heat and flood and what ever else comes to mind from current events. Reality is no longer yours to handle alone or ponder–the climate state will think for you.
why is there always one person that wants to cram the comments full of shit?
do they have nothing to do?
some people just need to shovel snow and stay off a computer.
The stars are lining up for a commodity price spike.
So we get cold weather (not climate claptrap) added to the other short-term factors on the radar screen from global recovery with demand increase, weak dollar with Uncle Joe spending, and cyclical oil price rebound. This is even more interesting now.
The end is near! The end is near! Thought Global Warming was prevalent and no snow predicted! Hum…fake weather, I believe! Now way, they’re cold in China! That’s against the liberal, fake science, scientist to get tax payer money for the rich and powerful.
