Century old Weather Record Falls
Monday, April 18, 2016 @ 2:57 PM
Prince George, B.C. – Yes it was warm out today. So warm in fact that it broke a 103 year old weather record.
“The temperature this hour is 22 degrees and that has broken the old record of 21.1 which was set in 1913,” says Lisa Coldwells, meteorologist with Environment Canada. “But we’re not done yet because we’re looking at peaking out at 23 degrees this afternoon.”
She says things will cool down to an expected high of 19 degrees tomorrow – nowhere near the record 26.7 degrees it reached back in 1934.
It’s also been very windy.
“The winds peaked at 1:00 p.m. with gusts to 63 km per hour and the winds will continue on through the afternoon.”
Coldwells expects those to diminish to about 40 km per hour tonight.

Another “warm” record falls… still waiting for those cold records to be set, not in our lifetime I would be willing to bet.
Just happy there aren’t any forest fires in the area, with this wind firefighters would have zero chances of bringing it under control.
Why was it so “warm” in 1913? Still trying to figure out why so many warm records were set 60, 70, 100 years ago when this was supposed to be the warmest decade on record. Should we not be breaking records from a year or two ago and not over 100 years ago?
Noone has an answer or guess even… typical
Perhaps this winter…..!

So what was going on in 1934 to make it so warm? Must have been all those cars running around looking for work during the depression?
The height of the dust bowl . The grapes of wrath .
It is actually a change to the jet stream that changed “normal” weather patterns to dry the air and cause drought like conditions in some parts of the US.
But what caused the change in the jet stream when we were in a period of under 300 ppm? The worlds oceans were not affected as they are now by the co2, so why was the Atlantic warmer than normal according to NASA and the Pacific colder? That we do not have an answer for – why these things happened to cause extreme heat in certain regions because of a change to the jet stream.
Yep, all those cars! Ha, ha, ha.
MUST have been!
-3 in Yoho
Two feet of snow in Colorado the other day.
Flooding in Texas today.
Earthquake in Ecuador.
So 100 years ago it was this warm. hmmm. Must have been a big carbon year.
Cow farts? Sure wasn’t cars.
“Ataloss how is your Tesla running
“despite the Model S garnering an almost perfect score from CR’s notoriously difficult-to-please testers, the organization nonetheless recommends you don’t buy one, citing numerous reliability issues. In fact, the Model S finished dead last in CR’s hybrid/electric cars research, its 45 per cent worse-than-average overall problem rating seeing it trail the Toyota Prius, the Nissan Leaf and the Ford C-Max, among others”.

Tesla modelS isn’t a hybrid . Just more lies .
Neither is the Nissan Leaf a hybrid. Got Shares in Tesla?

You should get yourself a copy of ” Lies Incorperated ” available at Amazon . In it you’ll find most of those so called news sources that you post are nothing more than industrial propaganda sites . You are had far too often . I see in that little imagination of yours I now have a tesla car . What a strange brain you have salesmutt. Slow day on the car lot ?
Did you not quote CR at one time praising the tax payer funded golf cart. Musk is laughing all the way to the bank with his subsidy collection. Can you refute what was said in CR, they are not the only source.
About that book did you read it considering your solar system stories.
You are the one that has dreamt up my solar power system , not me . All I’ve ever said is that I have electric power back and never sit in the dark when the grid goes down . I can not be responsible for some idiots imagination .
Shouldn’t call people names Ataloss. You charge your power pack with a battery charger off the grid? You should buy some solar panels to charge it
What makes you think I don’t have any solar panels ? I have several solar powered devises . I also have a wind powered devises . As for name calling . I calls them as I sees them . Anyone that sits in the dark with ever increasing power outages is not very smart or dirt poor or both . They have my sympathy but not my respect .
