Last week, I posted the unofficial figures showing that the year and a
half long global cooling cycle continued in June. The official
figures are out.
Ok. The Global Temperature drop on land and ocean was present but
small in comparison to the century average, a drop of .0127 degrees C
from June of 2007.

However, as I presented last week, it dropped .26 degrees from the 30
year average of more recent times at this site...

So, the global temperature dropped, again. In the last year, 11 of
the past 12 months have been lower than the same month in the prior
year. However, that is just talking about the land and sea
temperature drop. Let's talk about the atmosphere, since that is
where the ozone effect is supposed to be happening.
According to this page..
http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/oa/climate/research/2008/jun/global.html#temp
The month of June was the 9th or 13th coolest June in the Lower
Troposphere (depending on whether you use UAH or RSS data).
It was the 3rd or 8th coolest June on record in the Mid Troposphere
(UAH or RSS).
Both UAH and RSS agree it was the 5th coolest June on record in the
Stratosphere.
Many blame the recent temperature data to a reduction in solar flares,
as if that justifies Global Warming. Indeed, I think it proves the
reverse. If solar flare reduction caused this temperature drop, how
do we know it wasn't increased solar flare activity that caused PAST
global temperature increases. Indeed, if the sun is flaring less,
you'd think we'd be happy to have a higher temperature to insulate us
and removing that insulation could hurt us in the long run...assuming
there is ANY connection to temperatures from pollution, considering
that there has been this year and a half long temperature drop without
ANY reduction in worldwide air pollution.
