We are cool, but not in a good way.
All four major global temperature tracking outlets (Hadley, NASA’s GISS, UAH, RSS) have released updated data. All show that over the past year, global temperatures have dropped precipitously . . .
The total amount of cooling ranges from 0.65C up to 0.75C — a value large enough to wipe out most of the warming recorded over the past 100 years. All in one year’s time.
Speaking from the vantage point of a snow-covered Chicago at the end of February, I could have told ‘em that a month ago. The cold and snow have been merciless.
Anyone got some spare CFCs they care to release into the atmosphere?

Is this a veiled criticism of the science concerning global warming? Was my preceding sentence a rhetorical question?
