It's getting hot in here!

Recommended Posts

Met Office now claiming that Wales has “provisionally” broken its record, by 0.1 of a degree. This previous record was set in 1990. 

So 2 very hot days at the height of summer, 32 years apart. How terrifying. 

Must have been the “hole in the Ozone layer” causing it back then and then everyone getting new fridges and changing their deodorant has held back the tide.

I see we've switched gear smoothly from claiming there will be no records broken today and the Met Office have embarrassed themselves by predicting it straight to the fact that there has been a record broken today is irrelevent and the Met Office have embarrassed themselves by pointing it out.

The ridicule that I saw was placed at the Met Office A - confidently predicting 40°C and B - rolling out a red warning for what has essentially amounted to what was previously called a very nice day, not too dissimilar to what many people go on holiday to sit about in and manage just fine.

The hyperbole leading up to today was embarassing, knicker-wetting nonsense.

Covid experts were rightly lampooned for their ridiculous doom-mongering predictions - this today is no different.

Prove it.

And until you can, maybe you should cut out phrases like "absolutely bollocks".

I can't do proof because it's science and not maths. Here is some evidence in support of my contention.

Now over to you for support for your absolutely bollocks 5% anthropogenic claim. James Dellingpole's twitter is not  allowed.

I think we went from there will be no 40 degrees as predicted to posting an image of the Met Office claiming 95% certainty or records being broken in England and Wales to a “provisional” breaking of a record in Wales by a massive 0.1 of a degree. 

Do try to keep up.

Who'd have thought weather warnings would become part of the culture wars, the Sun must be very confused about which side they're meant to be on.

Stop beating that straw man, it's dead.

Again, they didn't "confidently predict" it, they said it had a 50% chance of happening, which is literally the least confident any prediction of 40 degree heat could be.

Talking of predictions, Welshy adding absolutely nothing to another thread is something entirely predictable, however.

Todd still playing a beige Lawrence Fox is equally unsurprising.

I think 50% was a revised prediction today. Wasn’t it? 
Prior to this it was confidently predicted.
