NOAA Defends Trump on Sharpiegate

Timothy Birdnow

Guess what? Trump was right about Alabama being in the path of Hurricane Dorian, according to NOAA.

From NPR:

CNN and the rest of the mainstream media spent days mocking the President, claiming he lied and was using a fake map. Turns out CNN was the liar.

The NOAA statement takes the National Weather Service to task, declaring, "The Birmingham National Weather Service's Sunday morning tweet spoke in absolute terms that were inconsistent with probabilities from the best forecast products available at the time."

The parent agency of the National Weather Service said late Friday that President Trump was correct when he claimed earlier this week that Hurricane Dorian had threatened the state of Alabama.

The article continues:

The surprise announcement in an unsigned statement by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration essentially endorsed Trump's Sunday tweet saying that Alabama will "most likely be hit (much) harder than anticipated."

And CNN mislabeled Alabama as Mississippi in THEIR hurricane map.

1 Hmmm... Nice to have one of the "biggies" on the President's side, but if I'm not mistaken, NOAA is the outfit -- or one of them, anyhow -- that's spreading all sorts of Fake News, particularly Fake (i.e. unduplicatable) Data, about Climate Change. It's kind of like having David Duke suddenly pop up in your corner and you start having to play Whack-a-Mole.

Please correct me if I have the wrong alphabet outfit here.

2 If you search for "NOAA climate change" you will get a very long list of articles by NOAA about rising temperatures, stronger storms due to warming, etc. A very long list. Hundreds of articles.

What you will not get is that in 2005 NOAA set up a new set of weather stations because the existing ones were found to be in places affected by "heat islands" such as city streets and parking lots, and that the new, rural, NOAA weather stations have shown that there has been no warming trend since 2005.

3 Yeah; Dana; NOAA is a corrupted agency, no question. I suspect they realized this was a bridge too far, though, or at least someone at the top did.

Bill H. you are absolutely correct; NOAA's data sets were horribly corrupted. Anthony Watts made his fame by running the survey of the surface stations and showing the horrible temperature bias in those stations. Also, they have been systematically removing stations and then doing an average of two other stations, some of which were hundreds of miles apart. Very bad data, indeed. And when the new data from the new stations shows no planetary warming?  They have to "smooth" it to show a trend because, well, they are just SURE it must be getting hot.

4 So they're replacing old gear, eh? To quote Johnny Carson, "I did not know that," Bill. We all (on this side of the fence, anyhow) knew that a large number of the measuring "stations" were corrupted, old, poorly functioning, poorly located, or whatever, and not to be trusted. If NOAA is taking steps to fix the problem, I will certainly hoist a glass in their defense. (Maybe I'll hoist one anyhow, since it's now Happy Hour. Guys want to join me?)

Of course, all the Warmiacs whose reliance on the old data produced such skewed reports will NOT bother to correct their reports, nor issue any apologies.
