How extreme are global weather conditions so far this year? | Inside Story

Soaring temperatures are setting records around the world.
And severe floods and storms are becoming more frequent and unpredictable.
So how do this year's weather conditions, differ from those before?
And what is that telling us?

[@anthonymorris5084]

@@TheHonestPeanut My friend you are parroting nonsense. Claiming "half the coral reefs are dead" is hyperbolic. Coral bleaching commonly occurs in coral and they recover. This is not new phenomenon. The Canadian government web site under Ministry of Natural Resources has forest fire data and a graph that clearly shows forest fires have been in decline for 44 years. That's as far back as the graph goes. American forest fire data goes back more than 75 years and clearly shows uninterrupted declines in both burn acreage and fires. Glacial ice has been melting uninterrupted for 20,000 years. During this time period life flourished. This ice used to cover the entire northern hemisphere. When it melted it exposed permafrost that existed for millions of years. Methane was released. Humans survived without an ounce of technology. Life flourished. All droughts are within historical norms they are not increasing. This data is easily found at authoritative sites like Our World in Data and even in the latest IPCC reports, which I guarantee you've never read.

[@wmanad8479]

Look up atmospheric energy imbalance - measurement over time via satellites tells us only half the heat entering the atmosphere is leaving now. This is from direct measurement, not modelling or estimates. In the 18 years of the study the amount being retained doubled. The rate of retention is accelerating. None of the models predicted this, none came close. It is hot, it will be hotter. Soon only the most deluded will be able to deny the reality.

(I have a ph.d. in statistical inference and feedback control theory, aka tipping points and feedback cycles). I was invited to write a chapter for a book on tipping points. My prediction is that we're going to see enough global agriculture fail by 2040 such that the poorest 20 or 30% of the population will no longer be able to afford food. Then our civilization ends... unless we want to start giving free food away to 2-3 billion people. Meanwhile many, many other effects are going to happen to our coral, our oceans, rates of water evaporation, salt water killing rice, forest fires, the AMOC, glacial melt, permafrost emissions, ground-water depletion of our aquifers, invasive insects, salt water corrosion of the foundations of buildings in our cities... mass population movements in the billions, 634 million people displaced by rising seas... We're looking at WW3 between now and 2040.

[@darinhitchings7104]

There are 4x as many heat waves and 4x as many crop failures after 1.5 deg C of warming. The summer of 2023 was the hottest summer in 2000 years by 0.5 deg C at a 95% level of confidence. We had temperatures that were 1.68 deg C above the pre-industrial average for ~11 months as of April 2024. We've had 13 months of temperatures above 1.5 deg C of warming now. And we added 4.7 ppm of CO2 to the atmosphere last year... which is 10 or 20x higher than any amount of CO2 that's been added in a single year for at least the last 200 million years. The closest thing we can find in the paleoclimate record was at the end of the Triassic period when the ppm of CO2 went from 1350 to 3500 ppm over the period of 1000 to 20000 years. So ... last year was way, way beyond (3500-1350)/10000 per year. The official 1.5 deg C limit is not officially crossed until we see these kinds of abnormal temperatures 10 years in a row. But I can't see any reason why next year is going to be better. (True, El Nino we will be coming out of, but we're also seeing a period of increasing solar intensity in the solar cycle right now... we have had record emissions, we're adding more CO2 / year than we ever have... and trees are 80% carbon... and we've been having record large forest fires). At 2 deg C of warming, I think our civilization will start to die. We'll have 13.8x as many heat waves and 20x as many crop failures. And the big deal is that between here and there tipping points will very likely tip. That means if we get to +2 deg C, we may very well start an avalanche of tipping points which we can not possibly counter-act that brings us to +4 deg C or higher. And after these tipping points tip, the planet is going to be in a fundamentally different state for the next 50000 years or so. We'll be locked in.

@@coleorum What is climate in your opinion? From a scientific sense, it was originally used to denote a long term weather pattern of a region. It is kind of difficult to even describe Earths climate due to the various contrasting climates that exist. Though I do know that a planet with an average temperature of 59F or 15C is a cold greenhouse.

The trend in solar activity is not driving not driving the decades of accelerating warming. Solar activity has been declining since the 50s. If the sun was driving this accelerated warming all layers of the atmosphere would be warming. What’s actually happening is stratospheric cooling and tropospheric warming which is consistent with a strengthening greenhouse effect. If the sun was the cause then all other planets in our solar system would be warming as well. Some are cooling, most are not changing.

Lies. Just for the benefit of all.. if you examine Palaeolithic records of co2 vs temp you’ll note that there was a NO CORRELATION.. Additionally, the Hawaii records of co2 AKA The Keeling graph, was unable to detect any variation in co2 following the Covid lockdowns or the large industrial uptake in 2000 from India and from china.. furthermore, Dansgaurd Oeschger oscillations occurring during the quaternary period showed huge anomalies in temp and co2 wherein temp rose by 5-15 deg in as little as a few decades and this occurred several times over the 700k year records via ice core data.. There seems to be a synchronous duality between co2 effect and ocean gyres which has only become omnipresent since the closure of the typhus sea.. Finally l, beryllium 10 isotope data shows a perfect correlation to the mini ice age and it is now understood that the suns heliosphere is pivotal to the solar system’s ability to deflect GCR (deep space particles travelling at 50k km/sec) as these partial ionise the upper atmosphere and seed cloud formation which in turn blocks sun light and increase our reflection or earths albedo.. This finding was further verified via sun spot records which show a weakening sun.. Currently the earths magnetosphere is weakening
