Well, well. Some “climate expert” on “The Weather Channel” wants to take away AMS certification from those of us who believe the recent “global warming” is a natural process. So much for “tolerance”, huh?

I have been in operational meteorology since 1978, and I know dozens and dozens of broadcast meteorologists all over the country. Our big job: look at a large volume of raw data and come up with a public weather forecast for the next seven days. I do not know of a single TV meteorologist who buys into the man-made global warming hype. I know there must be a few out there, but I can’t find them. Here are the basic facts you need to know:

Billions of dollars of grant money is flowing into the pockets of those on the man-made global warming bandwagon. No man-made global warming, the money dries up. This is big money, make no mistake about it. Always follow the money trail and it tells a story. Even the lady at “The Weather Channel” probably gets paid good money for a prime time show on climate change. No man-made global warming, no show, and no salary. Nothing wrong with making money at all, but when money becomes the motivation for a scientific conclusion, then we have a problem. For many, global warming is a big cash grab.

The climate of this planet has been changing since God put the planet here. It will always change, and the warming in the last 10 years is not much difference than the warming we saw in the 1930s and other decades. And, lets not forget we are at the end of the ice age in which ice covered most of North America and Northern Europe.

If you don’t like to listen to me, find another meteorologist with no tie to grant money for research on the subject. I would not listen to anyone that is a politician, a journalist, or someone in science who is generating revenue from this issue.

I have nothing against “The Weather Channel”, but they have crossed the line into a political and cultural region where I simply won’t go.

“The Weather Channel” Mess

My Comment

So, James, you won't go into the cultural, political battle for ratings purposes? I think you just did.

You are claiming to be a scientist, but avowing your belief in God's creation. And you are taking sides with wackos who deny the science on global warming? Looks like it to me.

Do you really think we don't get it out here in TV Land? You are kowtowing to an ignorant, mass audience who tend to believe more in religion than science. Hey, maybe you believe it too, but you diminish your credibility significantly by weighing into this controversy.

We look to you to know when there is a tornado on the way, not whether global warming is real. We know global warming is real and that the weather is being affected by it. Now we know where you stand - and will look for another weatherman to watch from now on.
