No, Extreme Weather Is Not Getting Worse
By Paul Homewood
An excellent analysis by Chris Morrison of the latest GWPF paper by Ralph Alexander:
Rising media star ‘Jim’ Dale (real name Noel Roger Dale) from British Weather Services (limited company dissolved) with a 40-year old proficiency certificate in thermometer reading from the Royal Navy can be relied upon to turn almost every bad weather event into the harbinger of complete climate collapse. Whatever the data thrown at him disproving his barking claims, ‘Jim’ carries on regardless. It is a comic tour de force, not to be missed. Unfortunately this ‘Daleification’ of climate change is common throughout mainstream media. A recent extreme weather report written by the physicist Dr. Ralph B. Alexander notes that much of the fault for the erroneous perception that such events are becoming worse can be attributed to the mainstream media, “eager to promote the latest climate scare”. He argues that the failure by climate reporters to put today’s extremes in a true historical perspective “is contributing to the belief that weather extremes are on the rise when they are not”.

True, but the Extreme Weather reports are getting worse. :)
Behave yourself, Robert! 🧐
All the more reason to knock the reports on the head.
Getting worse? They are certainly getting more frequent as they are exactly the sort of trivia the legacy media love to plug these days as opposed to serious factual journalism.
The pity being that even if they were, it signifies nothing.
To Climate Mania believers, EVERYTHING proves ‘climate change,’ whatever ‘climate change’ means to them.
Mr Dale is the loon who claimed on TV, when challenged about the tiny percentages of CO2 in the atmosphere, that a few ppm of arsenic in water can be fatal and hence the few ppm of CO2 is poisoning the atmosphere. Nonsense, the action is purely physical adsorption (unlike CFCs which did, indeed, poision the atmosphere by reacting chemically with the ozone).
Does Dale think a fizzy drink would poison him?
Since early November, he has been forecasting a ‘weather bomb’ in the following 10 days or so – wonder if he’ll stop in June? The problem is that this ‘news’ is always promulgated by social media, the Express and sometimes by the BBC. Surprise, surprise.
Always by the BBC actually.
Carry On Climate Catastrophising.
Hilarious comedy starring Jim Dale.
Ufortunately every public body and quite a few provate companies now tgrot out the climate change excuse when anything goes wrong with their services of products. Councils blame road potholes on extreme weather, Network Rail routinely blame any disturbance to their tracks, embankments, cuttings and bridges on it, and companies blame poor sales of their products on it.
“Extreme weather” and “climate change” have become very convenient excuses for lack of maintenance, lack of competance and poor sales due to an undesirable product.
