Have you ever noticed that nearly all of the predictions by the global warming alarmist crowd turn out to be ridiculously wrong. A case in point is the following article published in the Atlantic on July 8, 2011.
Following is typical of the nonsense routinely spouted by these guys:
Recent studies published in Nature and Science conclude that extreme weather events (heavy rainfall events and heatwave intensity) are linked to climate change. And the heat buildup in the deep ocean helps explain why.
I should have bet on having fewer tornadoes in both 2012 and 2013. This is not because I have any meteorological expertise, I don’t. It is rather because these guys are almost always wrong. So, common sense would indicate that if they were predicting more tornadoes, we could expect the exact opposite.
Bingo. There turned out to be a lot less tornadoes than usual in 2012.

Of course the ever predictable Huffington Post blamed this on a drought, caused by…..GLOBAL WARMING. The reason there weren’t enough tornadoes is that it was too hot.
Oops. The tornadoes forgot to show up this year too. What’s up with that? Last year it was because it was too hot. This year it is because it is too cold. But, I can safely predict that the global warming crowd will not be discouraged by mere facts.

Perhaps I am wrong, I haven’t exactly spent hours researching this stuff, but it sure looks like the global warming crowd is spectacularly good at getting things wrong. One would think that once in a while even they would accidently nail it. I mean even a broken clock is right twice a day. But not these guys! They are very good at getting it exactly wrong!
So, I will safely predict when we will see more tornadoes. It will be right after the global warming crowd says they missing because of global warming.
