Sophisticated Skeptic

Regardless, Republicans will still find some manufactured facts around somewhere...to say everything's normal...as long as money's still being pumped to em...from 'somewhere'. Just like the $billions$ pumped to em to be against Obamacare. Same agenda...different topic.

^ yet, why so few amounts of people worry about rapid warming possibilities....baffles me. not everything goes holly / jolly out to space....like skeptics like to dream / imagine. and all the junk / different chemicals were pumpin into the atmosphere. there's absolutely noway to know for certain what can happen next....and what earth's atmospheric threshold is.

this guy's a little strange...but does good , daily updates on what's going on with the sun / universe in general

somewhat OT....but still significant. The sun wakes up finally...releases a X flare. An X2.1 class solar X-ray flare occurred on 2015-Mar-11 with a peak time of 16:22UT. The flare occurred in NOAA AR 2297. (sunspot #) X2-FLARE AND RADIO BLACKOUT: Sunspot AR2297 has just unleashed a strong Earth-directed solar flare (March 11 @ 16:22 UT). Extreme UV radiation from the blast, which measured X2 on the Richter Scale of Flares, is causing HF radio fade-outs and other propagation effects on the dayside of Earth, primarily over the Americas: map. Meanwhile, natural radio emissions from the sun suggest that a CME might be emerging from the blast site at speeds exceeding 1,400 km/s (3.1 million mph). breaking story.. kind of interesting as well....many think solar activity and earthquakes have a link...and this just happened to occur 1 minute after the flare : 5.4 Mag. Earthquake hit Costa Rica Additional X-flares possible as 2297 is just starting to ramp up and become more earth-facing. First images :

2006 is the best I could find, in terms of hoping for a miraculous comeback. (for the year)

and we wonder why cloud tops have been lowering over the years. sky falling yet..? kind of explains why flash floods have been more severe than in the past. http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/news/news.php?feature=3285

any chance we could get a Climate Change non-banter thread ? I'm looking forward to reading the latest on what's actually going on, yet all i'm seeing is arguing back and forth.

anybody know if there's a free version of ECMWF...for forecasts over 7 days ? 7 to 10.... 7 to 15 ? oops, nevermind. found one http://www.ecmwf.int/products/forecasts/d/charts/medium/deterministic/msl_uv850_z500
