    The Carbon tax must have intimidated the climate with its game face.

    Thanks for that Oz temp map. I haven’t seen it anywhere else yet and I read quite a bit. I stumbled back on this site a few days ago. Was it shut down for a while ? If so welcome back. We need all the help we can get. It’s going to be a long battle. I’ve slid this site up into my top 3 out of about 30. I read the top 10 or so every night and have done for at least 2 years. It’s all I can do is to be informed. I spread the truth to those who don”t know. This is only my 2nd comment. Last one to Jo Nova. She’s brilliant. Anyway thanks Steve. This site is brilliant. All you guys deserve medals.

    I don’t suppose this comment will be published online here but Australia has had a very wet and cloudy year caused by warmer than usual ocean temperatures. It’s a weather phenomenon called La Nina and it’s been prolonged this time. The other side of the Pacific has had colder than usual ocean temperatures than usual, causing droughts.
    Chile drought looms as La Nina takes toll
    by Staff Writers – TerraDaily
    Santiago, Chile (UPI) Feb 10, 2011
    Chile has ordered nationwide contingency planning to prepare for damaging effects of a drought triggered by La Nina weather phenomenon, already seen behind low rainfall and poor agricultural harvests in Argentina.

      Are you from Saint Ives?

      • avatar RayS says:

        I’m from Kempsey on the mid north coast – one of the places where the floods have been.

        • avatar Me says:

          So Saint Ives is the big center near you? Correct.

          • avatar Me says:

            Sorry that is southwest coast towards NZ

          • avatar Me says:

            Southeast

            The only St Ives I know is a small upmarket suburb in Sydney. My town is nearly 500kms north of Sydney. Australia has had a record wet year with extraordinary amounts of rain and regular flooding in the West and especially in the North and East. I was in Darwin at the end of March and the Big Wet was still going and it kept raining for 6 weeks past the normal start of the Dry. Days are cool when the sun don’t shine and the rain is falling or drying out.
            From Perth Now:
            WA farmers are counting the cost after unseasonal rain dumped up to 70mm on some parts of the Wheatbelt, damaging crops and ruining hay. The Great Southern and Central Wheatbelt were hit with the heaviest falls, with several farmers in the Narrogin and Kukerin areas reporting falls of 70mm in just a couple of hours yesterday afternoon, flooding roads and filling farm dams. Very wet, cool year.

            From the same bom site you got the temperature map from, here’s the rainfall over the past 12 months:

            Remember, Australia is normall the world’s dryest continent but not this year.

    A hot/cold, wet/dry Australia is entirely consistent with a warming climate.

    • avatar RayS says:

      The record rainfall here is caused by the oceans getting hotter. The sea level at Darwin has been rising an average 8mm per year for over 20 years. Water being a fluid immersed in a gas it becomes less dense as it warms and the surface rises locally even though in other parts of the world it could get colder and the level fall. The whole thing is horribly complicated.

    For Ray who would obviously think it was bad if dollars were falling from the sky and still blame it on AGW:
