Arctic sea-ice extent to increase this year, says meteorologist

People who tell you that Arctic sea-ice extent is controlled by CO2 are lying, says meteorologist Joe Bastardi.

Arctic sea-ice extent is controlled by is the Atlantic multidecadal oscillation (AMO), not CO2, says Joe.

It’s a cycle, in other words.

And because of that cycle, Joe expects Arctic sea-ice extent to increase this year.

Why? Because the AMO is making it colder.

This also happened in the 1990s when the AMO flipped from warm to cold, says Joe. And around 2020, the AMO will flip permanently to cold. (I’m not sure how long he means when he says “permanently.”)

Antarctic ice extent way above normal

Meanwhile, Antarctic ice extent is way above normal, Joe adds.

No super El Niño?

And how about the super El Niño that’s been touted in all the forecasts?

Joe thinks it’s all hype. He doesn’t see s super El Niño developing. He thinks the cold Southern Pacific will cut the feet out from under it.

It’s a cycle. It’s a cycle. It’s a cycle.

And finally, Joe believes that natural cycles in the Pacific Ocean cause our droughts, not CO2. (I’ve been saying for years that humans have nothing to do with it. It’s a cycle. It’s a cycle. It’s a cycle.)

Data being manipulated

Listen to Joe’s weekly summary (link below). Just after the 14-minute mark you’ll see how the data is being manipulated.

Data for previous years has been “adjusted” to make those years appear colder than they really were, while data for more recent years has been “adjusted” to make them appear warmer than they really were.

And – presto! – just like magic – you’ve got a phony warming trend.
