Coldest, Wettest & Stormiest – The Good Old Days Before Global Warming
APRIL 18, 2024
By Paul Homewood

By the 1970’s, the Earth had experienced three decades of declining temperatures, which Hubert Lamb described as “longest-continued downward trend since temperature records began”.
 
Many will be aware that the coldest winter on record in the US was that of 1978/79, more than 1F colder than any other year.

It is also common knowledge that the 1970’s suffered the most from tornadoes.

What may less well known, though, is that the US also had its wettest year on record during the decade, in 1973.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
