Severe Weather The New Normal
Human Induced Climate Change Experiment A study mandated by congress highlights the cost of global warming to United States citizens. One of the most significant costs is the impact of more severe weather events. A LETTER TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE Climate change, once considered an issue for a distant future, has moved firmly into the […]

Warmest Year on Record
The Human Induced Climate Change Experiment According to NOAA scientists, the average temperature for the contiguous U.S. for 2012 was 55.3°F, which was 3.2°F above the 20th century average and 1.0°F above the previous record from 1998. The year consisted of the fourth warmest winter, a record warm spring, the second warmest summer, and a […]

National Snow And Ice For 2012
State of the Climate National Snow & Ice Annual 2012 National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration National Climatic Data Center The 2011/12 winter season was nearly non-existent for much of the eastern half of the nation. The December 2011-February 2012 three-month period was marked by near-record warmth across the U.S.-Canadian border, the Midwest, Mid-Atlantic, and Northeast, […]

Global Warming And Climate Volatility
As part of the Human Induced Climate Change Experiment, we have been predicting the effects of global warming on climate volatility. Indeed, we have seen a marked severity in volatile weather systems. 2012 went down as the hottest year in recorded history. Though we are only several days into January, the year is already setting […]

Snow Covered Desert
While snow coverage has been retreating in the Northeastern United States, the increased volatile weather systems being caused by global warming are causing it to snow in the desert. Snow-Covered Desert Snow-covered deserts are rare, but that’s exactly what the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA’s Aqua satellite observed as it passed over the […]

Northern Hemisphere Snow Cover is Retreating
PHILADELPHIA, PA — What is up with the weather? Yes, we have seen some freaky storms over the past few years. Global warming is expected to cause volatile weather patterns. Indeed, that is what we have been experiencing; however, overall the Northern Hemisphere is showing a steady decline in snowfall. NOAA: Average of monthly snow […]
