Hey! Whatsamatteryou? You gots a problem with the idear that just because it’s getting colder that we still gots to live in fear from Global Warming? Well, who you gonna believe, me or your own eyes?

From Bloomberg: Ocean Cooling to Briefly Halt Global Warming, Researchers Say

Parts of North America and Europe may cool naturally over the next decade, as shifting ocean currents temporarily blunt the global-warming effect caused by mankind, Germany’s Leibniz Institute of Marine Sciences said.

Average temperatures in areas such as California and France may drop over the next 10 years, influenced by colder flows in the North Atlantic, said a report today by the institution based in Kiel, Germany. Temperatures worldwide may stabilize in the period.

The study was based on sea-surface temperatures of currents that move heat around the world, and vary from decade to decade. This regional cooling effect may temporarily neutralize the long- term warming phenomenon caused by heat-trapping greenhouse gases building up around the earth, said Richard Wood, a research scientist at the Met Office Hadley Centre, a U.K. provider of environmental and weather-related services.

“Those natural climate variations could be stronger than the global-warming trend over the next 10-year period,” Wood said in an interview. “Without knowing that, you might erroneously think there’s no global warming going on.”

The Leibniz study, co-written by Noel Keenlyside, a research scientist at the institute, will be published in the May 1 issue of the journal Nature.

“If we don’t experience warming over the next 10 years, it doesn’t mean that greenhouse-gas warming is not with us,” Keenlyside said in an interview.

OK, let me get this straight — It’s gonna get cooler, but that doesn’t mean that it’s not gonna get hotter after it gets cooler? Can anyone say rhythmic cycles?

Ya know, it’s gonna be fun to watch all those Global Warming hystertics try and spin their way out of the next “Little Ice Age”. Sunspots dude . . . sunspots. And, while you’re freezin’ your keester off in your Miami igloo, just keep tellin’ yourself that eventually it’ll get warmer — ’cause it will.

Rhythmic cycles! Gotta love these guys . . . Sheesh!

    I’ll never forget in the late 90′s, in our local Tulsa, Ok paper , an article about then VP Al Gore warming up his speach on golbal warming, nearly 1/4 page story. Right next to it an AP story about a high rise construction project shutdown to allow a local collage to dig up the remains of a Wooly Mammoth buried there since the last Ice Age, they were in 110 degree…Pheonix, AZ. What goes around, keeps goin around.
