First audit of global temperature data finds freezing tropical islands, boiling towns, boats on land

The fate of the planet is at stake, but the key temperature data set used by the climate models contains hundreds of errors and more than 70 different kinds of problems. Billions of dollars have been spent because of predictions based on this data – yet even the simplest of quality control checks have not been done.

Why. Why. Why wasn’t this done years ago?

Absurdity everywhere in Hadley Met Centre data

There are cases of tropical islands recording a monthly average of zero degrees — this is the mean of the daily highs and lows for the month. One site in Colombia recorded three months of over 80 degrees C. That is so incredibly hot that even the miminums there were probably hotter than the hottest day on Earth. In some cases boats on dry land seemingly recorded ocean temperatures from as far as 100km inland. A spot in Romania spent one whole month averaging minus 45 degrees. The only explanation that could make sense is that Fahrenheit temperatures were mistaken for Celsius, and for the next seventy years at the CRU no one noticed.
