was just thinking the same about an hour ago.

I'm sure they promised a heatwave this summer saying it was gonna be hotter than ever or something like that. We get a week of good weather a few weeks ago and that's our bloody lot!!!

They predicted only six months ago a long dry summer with possible water shortages... how can they be sure about their global warming forecast if they can't get six months in advance right?

On further research, it seems they can't forecast global warming accurately either. Hadley forecast 2007 to be the hottest globally on record.... global temperatures actually fell by approx 0.5°C over the year, data taken from their own records.

On a side note, it should be noted that sunspot activity effectively ceased in 2006 (coinciding with the global cooling anomaly as recorded by Hadley) according to NASA and is unlikely to start up again until 2014 which could be another Maunder Minimum... the same effect that caused the little ice age between 1645 and 1715 when the last period of very little sunspot activity occured and the Thames froze.

What do I think? I think a little knowledge is sometimes a dangerous thing. 1645 we knew very little about weather forecasting and global temperature trends but I don't think they were predicting the end of civilisation because of man's disregard for his environment. We now think we know everything, when quite clearly nature is reminding us that we don't.

They cannot predict from day to day so they cannot possibly know 6 months ahead. The fact they said that ensured we had another wet Summer..

kids are off school and if it rains today I predict one (at least) will meet an untimely end

Heard on radio yesterday about possibility of extending school holidays by 4 weeks because of swine flu.
nearly slit my wrists with joy
