I read about this all the time, because I track a good many global warming sites. Over the years, the real global avg temp has consistently been higher and the impacts of warming more dire than the models have predicted. Here's an example: Study Says Climate Models May Underestimate Warming ucsusa.org Several climate science contrarian Web sites are misrepresenting the findings of a peer-reviewed study published in the July 13 issue of the journal Nature Geoscience. The study—by scientists from Rice University, the University of Hawaii and the University of California at Santa Cruz—provides evidence that current climate models are underestimating the amount of warming that an increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide can cause. In other words, the potential consequences of global warming are likely worse than what scientists are predicting.
