Memorial Day Snow? | Musings from the Chiefio

As this cooling turn progresses, the ‘cold loop’ of the Jet Stream is getting colder. Folks on the US East Coast or elsewhere that a ‘warm loop’ from the tropics sits on your head are benefiting from the hot flow to the pole where the heat leaves. This does not mean that your area is “heating up”, just that the heat from the tropics is leaving by running over you… Here on the West Coast we are under the cold air headed south (to be warmed in the process of sucking heat out of the Tropics.)

This is, IMHO, a direct result of the sun going sleepy, having the UV drop off a cliff, and having the atmospheric height shorten. (All the steps are in evidence, only the proof of causality is ‘a work in progress’.)

"Global warming" is SO totally over. Even President Obama concedes this now. The problem is that after twenty years or more of infectious drivel from the richly-funded global junk science community (NASA, the Royal Society, the "University" of East Anglia's Climatic Research Unit, the National Academy of Sciences, etc), the minds of too many politicians have been poisoned, and too much damage has already been done.
