The news comes amid mounting evidence that the recent run of world record high temperatures is about to end. The fall, revealed by NASA satellite measurements of the lower atmosphere, has been caused by the end of El Nino - the warming of surface waters in a vast area of the Pacific west of Central America.
Some scientists, including Dr Gavin Schmidt, head of NASA's climate division, have claimed that the recent highs were mainly the result of long-term global warming.
Others have argued that the records were caused by El Nino, a complex natural phenomenon that takes place every few years, and has nothing to do with greenhouse gas emissions by humans.
The new fall in temperatures suggests they were right.
- Global average temperatures over land have plummeted by more than 1C
- Comes amid mounting evidence run of record temperatures about to end
- The fall, revealed by Nasa satellites, has been caused by the end of El Nino
It has now been replaced by a La Nina event - when the water in the same Pacific region turns colder than normal.
This also has worldwide impacts, driving temperatures down rather than up.
The satellite measurements over land respond quickly to El Nino and La Nina. Temperatures over the sea are also falling, but not as fast, because the sea retains heat for longer.
This means it is possible that by some yardsticks, 2016 will be declared as hot as 2015 or even slightly hotter - because El Nino did not vanish until the middle of the year. But it is almost certain that next year, large falls will also be measured over the oceans, and by weather station thermometers on the surface of the planet - exactly as happened after the end of the last very strong El Nino in 1998. If so, some experts will be forced to eat their words.
Last year, Dr Schmidt said 2015 would have been a record hot year even without El Nino. 'The reason why this is such a warm record year is because of the long-term underlying trend, the cumulative effect of the long-term warming trend of our Earth,' he said. This was 'mainly caused' by the emission of greenhouse gases by humans.
Dr Schmidt also denied that there was any 'pause' or 'hiatus' in global warming between the 1998 and 2015 El Ninos. But on its website home page yesterday, NASA featured a new study which said there was a hiatus in global warming before the recent El Nino, and discussed why this was so. Last night Dr Schmidt had not returned a request for comment. However, both his own position, and his NASA division, may be in jeopardy. US President-elect Donald Trump is an avowed climate change skeptic, who once claimed it was a hoax invented by China.
Last week, Mr Trump's science adviser Bob Walker said he was likely to ax NASA's $1.9 billion (about ยฃ1.4 billion) climate research budget.
Other experts have also disputed Dr Schmidt's claims. Professor Judith Curry, of the Georgia Institute of Technology, and president of the Climate Forecast Applications Network, said yesterday: 'I disagree with Gavin. The record warm years of 2015 and 2016 were primarily caused by the super El Nino.'
The slowdown in warming was, she added, real, and all the evidence suggested that since 1998, the rate of global warming has been much slower than predicted by computer models - about 1C per century.
David Whitehouse, a scientist who works with Lord Lawson's skeptic Global Warming Policy Foundation, said the massive fall in temperatures following the end of El Nino meant the warming hiatus or slowdown may be coming back.
'According to the satellites, the late 2016 temperatures are returning to the levels they were at after the 1998 El Nino. The data clearly shows El Nino for what it was - a short-term weather event,' he said.
These are the words of Joshua, the Christ from Luke 21:11, but only if you are reading an Aramaic Bible such as Lamsa's "from the Aramaic of the Peshitta." As God is my witness, when I first discovered this I searched the Internet in vein for someone else who had noticed this difference in the Aramaic New Testament. I could not find a single reference to it and searching for a particular verse from the Bible is pretty specific. Even now, references to this missing text are is not all that common.
You can bet your ass--no, you can bet your life,-- that if the progenitors of the Freemasons went to the trouble to remove text from the New Testament, they had a very good reason.
Now, leaving aside the question of whether Planet Nine is approaching perihelion or aphelion, go back two Planet Nine cycles (11529.6696 years x 2 = 21042 BC) and you arrive at the "peak of the last ice age". Even the last basic cycle of 427 years (36 orbits of Jupiter) gave us the "little ice age". These cycles of destruction always, without exception and by definition involve extreme cold, but none more so that every other Planet Nine cycle. Yes, we are looking at a new ice age.
This is precisely why the Freemasons have been suppressing free energy technologies (even to the point of murder) and burning fossil fuels. It is precisely why the "big lie" of global warming was created. And it is why those bastards dared anyone to change a word in their Revelation but deleted the words of the Son of God.
11529.6696 years is 1944 orbits of Jupiter, or 18 108 orbits of Jupiter cycles (18 x 108 = 1944) or 27 72 orbits of Jupiter cycles (27 x 72 = 1944). In other words, two Planet Nine events ago (P9-2 in shorthand or 108-18 or 72-27) was a triple convergence of these three deadly cycles of destruction for which Jupiter is the timepiece of the ancients. P9-1 was was not a triple convergence because that was 972 orbits of Jupiter ago and 972 is not evenly dividable by 72. P9-1 was only a double convergence, and that I believe is the difference. Though here one must say the thoroughly documented destruction at 9500 BC goes way, way beyond the imagination of the vast majority of humanity. It just did not involve this level of extreme cold. Hence, the change in the Bible.
Which brings me back to Caltech and P9. I love those guys. They know exactly what they are up against and risked their lives going public. That is why the smartest of the three pretends to think P9 is approaching aphelion. He knows better. The orbital perihelion of P9 is 11530 years. How I know this is the only thing I do not discuss, not because I do not want to but because Joshua warns against this when he says something about dogs. Dedicate your life to always telling the truth and you will suffer unimaginably, but the rewards are of equal caliber. Calling it P9 was sheer genius.
If I were a military commander of a country near the equator who was not in bed with the Freemasons (in other words who does not have a "white stone" invitation into the tunnel systems), I would be preparing for the fight of a lifetime because those boys are headed this way when they resurface and I believe very strongly they are going to use sarin gas produced during WWII right outside the main entrance to their tunnel system in the Front Range to totally wipe out the surviving populations.
