That is my point exactly!
Ohh good, because inaccuracies like the one below are very misleading.
Yes, there was an increase in the last 30 years, but that just compensated for the decrease in the previous 30. Overall, the net change was insignificant.
Sigh. Can you at least be consistent? I know it is hard to do when your views are not grounded in science, but in a desperate attempt to to feel safe. But you can at least try.
The increase in nighttime temperatures (while predicted by global warming theory), increases the average temperature, but does not affect the daytime temperature.
Global warming affects both day temperatures and night temperatures but the anomaly is greater at night temperatures. Night and day temperature do affect each other.
Even your publication supports to my post about increased water vapor leading to an increase in nighttime temperatures, but not daytime. The increased cloudiness, due to higher humidity, is a temperature moderator.
I have no contention with that part. Clouds warm the night and cool the days. That is obvious. My contention is that:
1. You have claimed that this warming episode is part of a some sort of 30 year cycle. That is very misleading. Temperatures over California since 1900 illustrate why. yeas there are cycles, but so far the warmest part of the cycle is getting warmer and the coolest part of the cycle is also getting warmer, thus your argument is pure lies.
2. You imply that the cause for the nighttime increase is irrigation. While I don't doubt irrigation may play a role, the primary cause for the warming are GHG. Sure , you may now say" I never said GHG's didn't play a role" but that was the intention of your argument, with enough wiggle room for later denial.
If you have been reading some of the other threads, you we see a similar effect in the Arctic, whereby winter low temperatures have increased dramatically, but summer highs have not.
Similar in some ways but very different in others. Similar in that night temperatures increases much more than summer temperatures. Different in that surface temperatures north of 80 will remain constant until sufficient ice is gone. Once is gone summer temperatures will increase dramatically.
