21 degrees above normal? The water is 39 degrees. Apparently Mikey believes that the normal temperature of the water is 18 degrees F, 10 degrees below the freezing point of seawater.
The highest anomaly in the region is about 3C. The man is a genius.
Mikey’s link shows the water just south of Cape Cod slightly below normal.
So, Boston is the hottest place on earth now???? HAHAHA.
Hey! It was above freezing briefly today in the sun shine but another blizzard is roaring in…and with it below zero all week long.
I wish we could arrest these ‘climatologists’ or better still put them to work digging out Boston or my home.
It’s late, and I’m tired, but I think you meant that he thinks the normal temperature of the water is 18 degrees F (39 minus 21 equals 18). Which really doesn’t make any difference, as Mike is still plainly an attention whore (no offense intended to real whores, who arguably have a more honest profession than Mike does.)
Where do his numbers come from?
The drugs in the koolaide? Maybe its Magic?
The link in Mann’s tweet is:
http://earth.nullschool.net/#current/ocean/surface/currents/overlay=sea_surface_temp_anomaly/orthographic=287.18,40.42,1973
But there doesn’t seem to be numbers on the scale? (click the “Earth” thingy bottom left).
Left click with your mouse over the area you want the temperature. The temperature will be shown at the bottom left of the screen. Most of the Cape Cod area is between 0.5C and 1.5C right now.
Are those nullschool currents just model output? If so, it would explain the bizarre temperature anomalies.

Ryan Maue explained this nonsense yesterday :

Note how he was slimed by Greg Laden for his trouble.

Lots of warm water around Maine at the moment 🙂

Greg Laden cannot slime. Except when he agrees with you given how slimy he is,.
I don’t see +11.5C anomaly anywhere. May be my old eyes…
Greg Laden fails to explain the over 20 to 1 ratios responsible for the high amounts, a sign of an abnormally cold atmosphere. 1.07 inches of liquid in Boston is no testament to the “extra water vapor from warm water” idea. 22 plus inches of snow out of it is a testament to the cold
Boston snowfall amount has a fairly strong correlation with cold winters

Water equivalent is a forgotten parameter, but says much about the humidity/snow depth/temperature relationship. In central Canada we get a lot of snow with very little water content. Our predicted 2cm of snow tomorrow will have very little water equivalent at -30C. It is “powder”, and will blow around with the 40-60KM winds. Not a nice day. Thanks for bringing this forward Joe.
Any idea about where Wunderground source their Open Sea Buoy info? They don’t keep a history.
If it is Wunderground aka Jeff Masters. Expect it to have a large dollop of propaganda mixed in.
Remember I caught Masters listing the weather station within walking distance as ‘above freezing and rain’ when we had ~4 inches of snow and it was so cold I had 2 inches of ice form on the 100 gallon water tanks over night. When I called him a liar on his blog he hastily changed the data!
Now I know why he pedals propaganda.
WHAT WE DO
And guess who is on the staff of Climate Communication?
Peter Gleick
Katharine Hayhoe
Michael Mann
Jeff Masters
Michael Oppenheimer
Naomi Oreskes
Jonathan Overpeck
Benjamin Santer
Kevin Trenbreth
Don Wuebbles
To name just a few.
Mikey Mann – the Chicken Little of our time
Mann is more chicken shit than chicken little!!
Any narcissistic personality has a huge problem admitting mistakes.
Not labelling anyone, just stating a trait.
Looks like they went straight past the post-doctoring climate data and went for a bald-faced lie of actual current data.
Mann is an idiot. He and his ilk are calling for divestment of oil and replacement.. with windmills.
My hotair comment:
Environmental policy: not so much enviro as mental
http://wattsupwiththat.com/2015/02/10/environmental-policy-not-so-much-enviro-as-mental/
An excerpt:
Then there were the useless windmills. These bat-blatting, bird-blending eyesores now grimly overshadow close to two-thirds of Scotland’s once-beautiful land mass. Tourist numbers in formerly beautiful areas of the countryside now scarred by this pointless industrialization of the landscape are nosediving.
The subsidy farms are mincing the birds daily. Soon they will have wiped out all of these noble but fragile constituents in Scotland’s environment, in the name of – er – preserving the environment.
Don’t get me started on the cost [of the windmills]…
Before long, as the last eagles flutter to their bloody deaths at the foot of these cruel towers of steel…
————— ———– ————
Here’s a frightful video of a bird (a vulture?) getting sliced up by a windmill, clearly painfully as the downed bird stands up for a bit after thumping to the ground, then totters back down. And it’s a BIG bird! I don’t know how anyone can watch this video and still be for the insane wind turbines. Knock all the windmills down:
..and then there’s this:
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/home/moslive/article-1350811/In-China-true-cost-Britains-clean-green-wind-power-experiment-Pollution-disastrous-scale.html
Interestingly, a Greenpeace rep is in the story, and is none too happy about the situation.
Sad. The “bubbling toxic waste” contaminating the Chinese land fields of wheat and corn. So, as far as the Scottish case, both the Scottish and Chinese countryside are being ruined by the windmills. Congress should make a law: all windmills and their parts must be produced in this country, not China, so we can see and experience for ourselves the additional environmental damage the production of these monsters causes.
From your link:
This vast, hissing cauldron of chemicals is the dumping ground for seven million tons a year of mined rare earth after it has been doused in acid and chemicals and processed through red-hot furnaces to extract its components. Rusting pipelines meander for miles from factories processing rare earths in Baotou out to the man-made lake where, mixed with water, the foul-smelling radioactive waste from this industrial process is pumped day after day.
Don’t forget that DEAR Judith Curry is PROFITING handsomely from these nasty bat-chomping bird-slicing eco-crucifixes.
Judith and Peter Webster, a member of the propaganda outfit Aspen Global Change Institute I mentioned above, are owners of CLIMATE FORECAST APPLICATIONS NETWORK, LLC
Tax payer funded grants via STTR or Small Business Technology Transfer grants.
That is 1.2 million in grants not including the consulting fees the company gets. ” consulting fees” are such an easy way to pay for propaganda without leaving a trail. Muller of Best also has a private consulting company.I wonder if Zeke and the Mosh Pup are on the payroll?
What is even more interesting is the proposals Judith wrote to GET those grants.
Temperature increases due to CO2 are suppose to have increased, arguably, by a modest .6C degrees. That .6 C degrees has morphed into something twenty times (or more) in quantity for alarmists like M. Mann to screech about. This goes to the mind set of someone like Michael Mann. He is not being rational, he is not being scientific.
The only thing abnormal about climate or weather is the lunatics shouting about it.
Mann is a proven vindictive liar, fraud and all round idiot. Even his alarmist colleagues think he’s a tool.
