Today, we have "Gods" walking among us that seem to know how an infinite system will turn out in the future, because they are armed with the idols that are known as models. They are given credit for things that have not occurred and, in all likelihood, will not occur. Why? It is because what is occurring now has occurred before.

That's AccuWeather meteorologist Joe Bastardi writing at IceCap. He goes on:

This first colder than normal year worldwide is one of the signs that we are getting ready to go back to a colder cycle, on the order of 15-20 years. That this is happening seems to be hidden or erased from any trace in the minds of these folks. Amazing isn't it? Facts of the past are discarded in one-sided arguments.

You gotta love consensus. Go read the whole thing, it's very entertaining. Of course, meteorologists, who spend all their time trying and failing to predict tomorrow's weather, are often skeptical of global warming. I'm a weather geek. I follow the models all winter--the GFS, the EURO, the NAM. They can't tell you much more about the weather five days out than five months out--which is to say they can tell you precisely nothing. So when Bastardi tells you no one knows what the weather will be in 2050, believe it. The models are bunk. HT: EasternUS Weather
