If 2015 is the hottest year since whenever, what will that mean? : Comments

By Don Aitkin, published 30/9/2015

There are two stories floating around about the state of the earth’s atmosphere. Both are believed true by government-funded scientists and the environmentally minded. The situation is curious because the stories don’t mesh.

".. logically it must have only happened at the Northern hemisphere."
waddya mean, not sense. It precisely correlated with the geohydrogenic clarity of textual chronologies of eschatology and cryostatics.

The Milankovitch cycles are a set of cyclic variations in characteristics of the Earth's orbit around the Sun. Each cycle has a different length, so at some times their effects reinforce each other and at other times they (partially) cancel each other. The combined effects of the changing distance to the Sun, the precession of the Earth's axis, and the changing tilt of the Earth's axis redistribute the sunlight received by the Earth. Of particular importance are changes in the tilt of the Earth's axis, which affect the intensity of seasons. For example, the amount of solar influx in July at 65 degrees north latitude varies by as much as 22% (from 450 W/m² to 550 W/m²). It is widely believed that ice sheets advance when summers become too cool to melt all of the accumulated snowfall from the previous winter.

Either that or white walkers.

Nick just have a cuppa tea and a lie down and I will inform you. I say it must have only been the Northern Hemisphere as the ice built up for thousands of years.
I do understand you dicks are just baiting me when I bait you for being know-alls.
Anyway a "Scientist" has now cast doubt on all the "Evidence" on the computer models. This should fire us all up for the coming years lol!
