O.T. - The Polar Bears of Hudson Bay

An Assignment for Canadians

I would now like to give Canadian readers an assignment, which I would ask t
hat
they revisit over the next several years. The following table contains
hyper-links to all the NASA-GISS Canadian temperature stations which contain
temperature histories to the current date. The first column contains the
Latitude and Longitude of the active temperature station and links to a list
 of
all stations which are about the active station. The second column contains 
the
name of the active station and links to a graph of the temperature history o
f
the station. The remaining columns contain the Station Id, the Population ab
out
the station and the range of Years for which the station contains data. The
table is sorted in order of the Station Id. At the bottom of each "Surface
Temperature Analysis" graph is a legend which says "Click for monthly data i
n
table form". If you click on this object, you will be given a table which gi
ves
all of the monthly, seasonal and annual temperature history, in a format whi
ch
can be loaded into Excel, Lotus, or any spreadsheet/graphing program, if you
 so
desire.

Please review all of the temperature graphs for these stations and makeup yo
ur
own mind about what is occurring with regards to temperature change in Canad
a.
You will find that some stations are showing warming, others are showing coo
ling
and others exhibit little if any change. You will find that the stations whi
ch
are now showing warming are either in major population centers, where urban 
heat
islands dominate the weather or locations very close to the Artic Ocean. If 
you
are interested in the impact of urban heat islands on major population cente
rs,
change the value "data_set=1" in the URL string to "data_set=2" and the GISS
database will make a correction for the impact of urban heat islands. Note t
hat
I consider such calculations to be risky, as population data is not always
accurate, but the results are sometimes interesting.

Do not trust anything which I tell you. Do not trust anything which you're
Government tells you. And, never trust anything the environmentalists tell y
ou.
Periodically review the GISS Canadian temperature data and make up your own 
mind
about climate change in Canada. Examine the actual temperature data, over a
historically significant period of time, and come to your own conclusions as
 to
the existence of anthropogenic global warming. Once you have made an informe
d
decision, act on it.

And to the Cannuck who took the name of Nemesis in vain:

So is that is going to happen to the temperature about Hudson Bay and other
areas of Canada? In my view anyone who tries to predict weather or climate m
ore
than one week in advance is a fool, but I will venture four observations:

1.      The current solar cycle is coming to an end.

2.      The current El Niño event will be peaking and beginning to subside.

3.      The Pacific Decennial Oscillation has gone into its cooling phase.

4.      Historically, large increases in Canadian temperatures are followed 
by
equally large decreases.

I truly hope that the people of Canada love the cold as much as their
politicians think they do, for they may be getting more than they wished for
.
But as the old saying goes, every cloud has a silver lining, and in the case
 of
Canada, once mandatory CO2 reductions are imposed, Canadians can look forwar
d to
every home having its own indoor hockey rink, without the need for all that
expensive refrigeration equipment.

As there is nothing cute or lovable about one of the most formidable predato
rs
on the planet, all of the stories about polar bears included the obligatory
photographs of polar bear cubs, which are adorable by any criteria.

Hey, once again Hammy, who gets the last laugh, and I hope you realise that
I truly believe in Nemesis, and I want to wish you a Happy Solstice by sendi
ng
you a card with pretty Polar Bears on, but as I can't be bothered, you are g
oing
to have to make do with the real thing instead. Ain't you glad you spent all
that time worrying about a little virus, instead of learning how to shoot po
lar
bears.

I'm so glad that I live on an island where the biggest predator is the domes
tic
cat.
