96% Of U.S. Climate Data Is Corrupted

Shocker: 96% of U.S. climate data is corrupted​

This seems like an appropriate time for a story like this to pop up since it involves both smoke clouds and climate change. You probably heard how AOC was quick to blame the clouds of smoke wafting down from the Canadian wildfires last week on climate change. As you likely expected without even needing to check, that turns out to be nonsense. But the underlying facts that prove its nonsensical nature turn out to be well rooted in science. And researching this question turns up something even more interesting, which we’ll get to in a moment.

You should check out the work of veteran meteorologist Anthony Watts of the Heartland Institute. He’s been studying the weather and the climate in general for a very long time. He travels around the country inspecting meteorological equipment and studies historical weather data from around the world. One of the first findings he would like the public to be aware of is that not only are wildfires common in many parts of North America, but the reality is that in the 21st century, they have actually been less numerous than they were in the past. They’re just getting more attention from the press and on social media.

That’s not the shocking part of the story, however. When discussing the “modest warming” that the planet has exhibited, there is a need to have solid data. But as Dr. Watts has examined weather stations around the country, he has discovered that the available data may be nearly useless when attempting to quantify very slight changes in average temperatures. That’s because more than 90% of the data is “corrupted.” And the reason for that is the reality that the vast majority of thermometers that NOAA relies on are improperly installed and maintained, leading to the recording of artificially higher temperatures.

In order to produce accurate temperature readings based on NOAA’s own published standards, thermometers are supposed to be in natural, “pristine” locations like fields, forests, hilltops, etc. But Dr. Watts’ research has revealed that more than 90% of NOAA thermometers are in inappropriate places. 96% are in parking lots, on buildings, against brick walls, or in other artificial environments. The bricks, asphalt and other human construction materials used in these environments artificially trap heat, leading to a “warming bias” in the collected data. Thermometers placed in natural settings register lower average temperatures.

More proof that the Climate Cult is wildly misinformed on the state of reality.

Lmao. The data is flawed argument is always fun.

This is the same science that tried to tell you facts about COVID and alla you schmucks shit on it to make things worse.

pick a side, for fuck's sake. you can't choose when and when not to believe in the eggheads.

 

[HisArpy]

It's been known for a long time that the data is being manipulated. The climate cultists don't care.

It's fun pulling their chain and messing up their playhouse.

They're all insane. They believe and will continue to believe, despite facts, because it makes them feel better to believe lies than face the truth.

Is there a climate scientist who says the data is being manipulated?

 

[John_von_Neumann]

Anthony Watts and the Heartland Institute? Fuck off with that noise. We don't need trysail 2.0.

Technically, the data is being manipulated, as the temperature readouts are adjusted to overcome bias. It actually is how they address the issues which are pointed out in the OP. Did the temperature readouts are too far off, they simply leave it out of the data set.

So climate scientists aren’t actually doing anything unscientific.

20-Year-Old Climate Cultist Greta Thunberg Finally Graduates From High School, Lauds Her 'Accomplishments'​

By Mike Miller | 11:52 AM on June 10, 2023

In the full-metal clown world of “climate change” lunacy, Swedish activist Greta Thunberg is arguably the most recognizable climate loon on earth — the very planet on which she predicted in a 2018 tweet that “all of humanity” would be wiped out unless we stopped using fossil fuels by 2023. Oopsie. Yeah, she finally deleted that piece of garbage — which comes later in our tale.

Incidentally, one of my favorite “attributes” of Thunberg is the sneering condescension plastered all over her angry little face as she waxes ultracrepidarian (great word; look it up), about all things end-of-the-world (anthropomorphically caused, of course) when she predicts the next apocalypse that never happens.

Delusional activism is founded on narrative in search of facts. This is not to suggest unfounded activism doesn’t attract scads of low-information followers, of course. As comedian George Carlin observed, “Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.”

While not all activists are “stupid,” most are delusional. From climate change to Black Lives Matter to “gun violence,” so-called “transgenderism,” support for on-demand abortion until birth, and a plethora of other left-wing causes, we’re faced with perpetuated narratives in search of facts that don’t exist — or at the very least, not even close to the extent the activists claim.

More of her nonsense here: https://redstate.com/mike_miller/20...high-school-lauds-her-accomplishments-n759129

So she graduates high school at 20 years old and still full of crap.

I suppose you think this is an example of peak journalism?

“Over the course of the Earth's 4.5-billion-year history, the climate has changed a lot. This is true. But the rapid warming we're seeing now can't be explained by natural cycles of warming and cooling. The kind of changes that would normally happen over hundreds of thousands of years are happening in decades.”

Hope that ^ helps the poorly educated Deplorables.

It is manipulated in the fact they know and don't care their thermometers aren't accurate.

Monumental BS

The specific topic your referred to is literally how the locations of temperature readouts are biased due to conditions.

The same guy, Watts, has multiple blog posts about how these same folks leave out data or alter data to account for bias....he's contradicting himself.

Climatologists account for temp bias....saying they don't is a lie.
