March the warmest on record over world land surfaces

Over here in Scotland, we've had one of the best seasons for snow sports this year with most of our slopes open from Nov and some are still open now. So can safely say its been colder for us :-)

In Australia we had recored breaking heat waves. Adelaide had 15 days of 35 degrees c setting the Australian capitals record. In Melbourne we had day temps reaching 40 - 41 C and overnight temps well over 25 C.

It is becoming increasingly obvious that analyzers of various climate related data sets can claim whatever suits their agendas. Data mining can show that it is hotter, more cold, wet or dry, record breaking, etc. It is difficult to believe any claims that are based upon models rather then empirical research. .

Warning, take Skittles of Australia's post with a grain of salt.

While the central southern sections of Australia were warmer than normal for a few weeks, most of the eastern half of Australia was experienc its the coldest summer in decades.

When March is warmer than normal, this is taken as "definite proof" that the world is "definitely warming because of CO2 emitted by humans".

However, when the month of February is much colder than normal, it's a one of those freak conditions that has no significance.

Clearly, the global warming alarmists think that the general public won't notice their highly selective interpretation of the facts.

Warning! take Ninderthana's comments with a whole tub of salt. He puts quotes around something that isn't in the article. Something else he read, maybe? Plus, Climate change predicts extremes in weather, not just warming. so you could have areas with extremely cold temps as well as areas that are warmer than usual.
