An Actual Weatherman Debunks NOAA Claims

TV Weatherman Joe Bastardi, best known for his AccuWeather reports, has penned an article at The Patriot Post dealing with “Data Deception.” Joe starts out with a few links to debunk NOAA’s assertion that July, 2012 was the hottest July on record, which of course is more of NOAA and NASA’s chronic misinformation. Joe then continues with these thoughts on current conditions and how the gullible media stokes the non-existent fire with their brand of Chicken Little hysteria:

best-name-evah.jpgIt is true that it is very warm off the Northeast Coast, which is part of the reason I am so concerned that like the 1950s, the northeast is vulnerable to hurricane landfalls. However, it’s very cold off the West Coast. That should be relevant also when talking about how warm the waters are off our coasts. (It’s part of the cold cycle of the Pacific we have entered.)

One can read the debunking [at this link], but I wish to make a few other points. There seems to be a common thread with people who believe their idea of absolute truth means they can say and do whatever they want to get to that truth. The result is a series of loud announcements that grab the attention of a gullible media, and when debunked, do not have near the coverage as the original pronouncement.
