• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Where is Al Gore

2016 was the warmest year on record here in NZ. FWIW.


That's fine, but we have no way to know if it was even warmer back in 1316, 1416, or 1516.

That is the problem with scientists' predictions. Most of the time they are wrong.

Up here in Canada, in our region, we were told in the fall that we would have a really cold hard classic Canadian winter. Now they are saying that it will be warmer than usual. They cannot predict a few days, or months ahead let alone years, or decades ahead.

This climate change garbage is just a way for gov't and companies to make money off us. nojoke
 
Just remember: A Meteorologist only has to be right half of the time; and they get to keep their jobs...
I wish that I had it that easy! :D

Come on Bob, you know that you can be right much more often than that. Just remember these few terms:

1. Yes, Dear!
2. Your right Dear!
3. You are right again, Dear!
4. Whatever you say, Dear!
5. I will get right on that, Dear!

Rain

Why would anyone in CA complain about the rain after years of drought? Do you like uncontrolled fires?
 
One problem that also seems to be a trend...when Mother Nature makes a correction, it seems to be a duzzy of an overcorrection. :thumbup:
 
I can,t resist

For millions of years carbon was stored under ground in the form of oil, coal and natural gas we now are taking these forms of carbon out of storage and pumping it back into the atmosphere, tons more than ever before. Now I'm not a scientist but changing makeup of the big gas blanket that makes life possible on this planet might have some effect on weather and causing the shrinking of the polar ice caps. I see several coal and oil trains go through town each and every day I can't believe that the tons of carbon dioxide produced by the burning of these fuels has no effect on our planet. I see change every year, spring comes earlier, storms seem more sever and more frequent, and droughts last longer these are just some of the changes I've noticed I am sure there are many other examples but I ramble on to much. Just my opinion.

There where no coal fired power plants or SUVs around when the Ice age ended. The earth's climate has changed since became a planet. If we don't use fossil fuels, we can't drive, use electricity, plastic or any other products derived from elements. Some day technology will come up with solutions to the pollution. Then many years from then, some scientific study will show how these are causing climate change. What happened to the predicted ice age in the 70's?
 
Globle Warming?

Just my opinion but,here in Maine our winters were snowy and cold through the whole winter.Now it seems Every Winter we have at least a week of above average temps causing a large thaw. We're in one right now.At least three or four days of temps in the upper 40's to low 50's. It usually happens the first or second week of January. It's become know as "The January Thaw!" However last Christmas we had No Snow for Christmas and it got to 60 Degrees Christmas Day. Winter 15-16 was the least amount snow since they've(?) been recording the winter snowfall!
 
I do remember when winters were much colder when we moved to the Red River Valley in 1985 we would enter a float in the holiday parade in Fargo, ND the temps that year were below zero and for several years in a row it was always cold it has gotten progressively warmer over the years now when the parade takes place more often than not temps are in the twenties or warmer heck we had temps in the seventies for deer hunting season even swatted a mosquito while sitting my stand unheard of years ago I have sat in stand at -16 now we hardly have temps below freezing during hunting season. Something has changed just my observations.
