BULLETIN ITEM:

Global Warming Clearly Accelerating - See The Smoking Guns In NOAA chart.

MWM: Two articles below, one on the 13 feet of snow in Japan and another on the hottest year on record in Australia. Doubtless, these two simultaneous extremes demonstrate that the Global Warming trend is still INCREASING.

These two extremes will continue to dominate Earth's climate cycle and become more widely extreme as the Global Warning Syndrome accelerates.
The two articles also reveal that the essence of the Global Warming Syndrome is an increase in the "refrigeration cycle" in Earth's atmosphere. It is being set up higher with each succeding year.

Thus hotter summers, colder winters, moderated in the America's by the La Nina and El Nino Syndrome, moderated worldwide by the Sunsport Cycle. At the moment it is being driven by increased ocean water temperatures surrounding the Australian Tectonic Plate (the North and Northeastern edges which is dotted with hundreds of volcanoes and vents) and the Gakkel Ridge (Rift) in the Artic, which is also composed of nearly continuous venting of hot water in an arc which is at least a 1000 miles long.
The efffects of this venting on Sea Surface Temperature can now at this very moment be seen quite clearly in the latest map composed by NOAA

The yellow/red literally surrounds Australia/New Zealand, does it not? Look at the red in the Arctic near Norway. Notice that there are as many spots colder than normal as spots which are hotter than normal, in aggreate areas. One begets the other, equal and opposite reactions here.
NOT THE SUN DRIVING THIS PHENOMENON, THOUGH SOLAR INFLUX SCATTERS IT. EFFECT IS DRIVEN BY UNDERWATER VOLCANISM, WHICH IS ESPECIALLY ACTIVE IN THE SOUTH PACIFIC WHERE YOU CAN SEE WE HAVE THE GREATEST AMOUNT OF TERRITORY WHICH IS HOTTER THAN NORMAL.

Given the fact that we are now close into the Solar Sunspot Cycle MIN phase (durning which the energetic impact on the Earth has been lessening during the past two years), it would seem that the driver of this increase in NOT the decreasing solar influx.

This tends to lead us away from the Greenhouse Gasses Theory as well, since this is dependent upon the Sun to input the basic energy. This leaves us with greater evidence than ever that the cause is beneath our feets, or more literally, beneath the oceans.

Japan struggles to cope with record snowfall

Fri Jan 6, 2006 11:49 AM GMT163OKYO (Reuters) - Japan was bracing for more snow on Friday after some of the heaviest snowfall on record that has left 57 people dead and paralysed transport.Almost 4 metres (13 ft) of snow has piled up in the worst-hit areas of Niigata near the Japan Sea coast, though the snowiest season of the year is yet to come.
Television pictures showed drifts burying the ground floors of houses and almost covering street lamps.
A 93-year-old woman and her daughter were crushed to death in Ishikawa Prefecture, 300 km (186 miles) northwest of Tokyo, on Thursday when their house collapsed under the weight of the snow.
Public broadcaster NHK said 57 people, including the latest fatalities, have died because of the inclement weather in the past few weeks, many of them elderly people trying to clear snow from their roofs. More than 1,300 people have been injured, it added.
Last month, Transport Minister Kazuo Kitagawa promised more funds to help rural communities, where a high proportion of the population is elderly, clear snow from local roads.
Akita prefecture in the north of Japan's main island of Honshu, has been hit hard by snow in recent days.
Many train passengers were left stranded in the area as services, including the high-speed bullet trains connecting Akita with Tokyo, came to a halt.
"If the snow continues to fall, we will have to think about calling in the armed forces to help out," a spokesman for a disaster management centre in Akita City told the daily Asahi Shimbun.
Japan's Meteorological Agency said cold weather and heavier-than-usual snowfall would likely continue through January, caused by cold air flowing over the country from the North Pole.
This is a phenomenon that occurs on a regular basis, but has lasted longer than usual this winter, an agency official said.
Japan's heaviest snowfall usually comes in January and February.

Australia - 2005 hottest year on record

It is 6am in Brisbane, Australia and although the weather breau is suggesting a maximum of 30 Degrees Celcius ( 86 Degrees Fahrenheit) for Brisbane today, at 6am it is already 30 Degrees Celcius and very humid.
I have never known such incredibly hot and humid weather. While in the article below they state the average yearly temperature was 22.89 Degrees Celcius (approx. 73.4 Degrees Fahrenheit), what is not mentioned in this article is that South Australia, Victoria, NSW, Queensland and Northern Territory had temperatures between 45 Degrees Celcius (113 Degrees Fahrenheit) up to 55 Degrees Celcius (131 Degrees Fahrenheit). Last Update: Wednesday, January 4, 2006. 11:14am (AEDT)2005 hottest year on record

Federal Environment Minister Ian Campbell says new data showing 2005 was Australia's hottest year on record is further evidence of climate change.
The Bureau of Meteorology is releasing figures today showing the average temperature last year was 22.89 degrees.
It is the highest average temperature in Australia since comprehensive record keeping began in 1910.Senator Campbell says it is extra proof that the earth is warming up and a global response is required."
It is a huge and serious challenge, these figures add to the weight of evidence that climate change is real and that it's a problem that the world needs to work together to seek to solve," he said.
Senator Campbell says new technology will be crucial in reducing greenhouse gas emissions."If we don't bring forward the technologies, then we won't solve the problem," he said.
The Federal Opposition is warning temperatures will continue to climb.
Labor's environment spokesman Anthony Albanese says the size of the increase is worrying."
The importance isn't just that it's getting hotter, it's the extent," he said."With a more than one-degree increase in temperatures, that shows that climate change is not only here but its impact will be extreme over coming years."
Mr Albanese says it is time for concrete initiatives."It's certainly time for a little less conversation and a lot more action," he said.
Australian Conservation Foundation spokesman Irwin Jackson says the Government has to act."
By 2020, our emissions are expected to be 20 per cent above what they were in 1990 and this is at a time when the world's scientists are saying we need to be reducing our emissions by 15 to 30 per cent," he said."So the Government's really failing to take the climate change issue seriously on the scale that's required."
Greens Senator Christine Milne is dismissive of the upcoming Sydney conference with five other Asia Pacific nations on trying to develop new forms of clean energy production."This is a sideshow to global action and the Australian Government needs to immediately ratify Kyoto," she said.
