I don't expect 100% in a weather forecast for next week, because my inconvenience is low. If I was staging an outdoor concert for a million dollars next week, the forecast would be far more critical and costly if wrong. The AGW promoters are betting on forecasts that they now admit were off by 20 years. I'm sure they're right this time. |

Dr David Viner made the following predictions in 2000.

When did he say it? What was he talking about? Was this a chat over beer, or a published paper? Did he even say these things? Surely, if these are part of a serious prediction, they would be part of a larger set of text. You've found (I think) the source document--the fragments in The Independent. God only knows what Viner was actually saying and to whom and for what purpose.

With everything accelerating we should be home by Christmas. "Climate change" is accelerating, "global warming" is accelerating, sea level rise is accelerating, "extreme weather events" are increasing in frequency and intensity, and ultimately, British children could have only virtual experience of snow. Via the internet, they might wonder at polar scenes - or eventually "feel" virtual cold but what’s the odds of a white Christmas?

No, no, no Landmark do not listen to John the denier, who does not have the science to understand these things, listen instead to the IPCC experts who say snow will now be a rare event and so it must be about 50/1 against a white Christmas.

It says 25% chance for here in Brooklyn. That sounds about right, based on the last decade or so. It was certainly more likely back in the day when I was a wee one.

It? What is this it, compared to the men of Dr David Viner and Professor Parker’s caliber? Do you think that it knows better than the senior research scientist at the climatic research unit (CRU) of the University of East Anglia?
Christmas from now on will be a time to pack your Brexton with ice-chilled champagne and salad, time to put on your Panama and go to Glorious Goodwood, where you might well meet up with Dr Viner and Professor Parker, who will no doubt be having cold beer in one of the marquees there in the shade out of sizzling heat.

You are aware that these great experts in the field still today stand by their predictions of no snow from back in the day they made them? That is in spite of all the snow that has fallen since.

Part of Glorious Goodwood’s unique appeal is its incredible setting – perched high in the Sussex Downs and just four miles north of Chichester, the beer tents are there. There in the field where they tell their stories of the future to the world.

"“I’ve written about many controversial issues during my career,” Ridley said. “Never, have I ever experienced anything like what happens when you write about climate, which is a systematic and organized attempt to blacken your name rather than your arguments, and to try to pressure any outlet that publishes me into not publishing me any more.” " |

So he agrees with the international panel of utter liars as that goes and just because he says I don’t think it will ever get dangerous they try to destroy him. Would they try and destroy him if he only agreed 97%?
If he said he thought it was going to be a white Christmas, would they nail his cat to his front door?
