2/ NL will now punish the unvaxxed with 2G to protect them.
Those are mainly below 35. The healthy young future of NL. Do you see how they need to be protected?
3/ Therefore the young and children need to "urgently" be vaccinated, although this data should make you wonder why.
4/ But NL was rewarded for all this or not?
I fail to see it. I don't read news nor watch TV. I read data. That's my destiny as scientist. I fail to understand what people are thinking around me.
5/ But SWE must have failed totally?
Without lockdowns, everything should have collapsed. 10x deaths forecast!
I fail to see it. NL is worse.

6/ NL: It was the worst pandemic since 100 years. We needed to lock down the children and the healthy to protect them. Is this plausible?
7/ But Sweden killed people. Their neighbours did much better. No they did not.
The neighbours like DNK need to ask themselves: why do "kill" people 3 years earlier on average?
8/ But Finland. See above. 2 years worse life expectancy. You need to have people in the elderly bin in order to make the all age excess possible with the Simpson's illusion (btw. the reason for most panic). Even worse, use z-scores to compare countries.
1/ Digging deeper, we find 3 USCRN sites with 2 IDs — a legacy historical one and a USCRN. That’s big. It means we can stitch together long-term time series for 3 “golden” stations. Why haven’t @NOAA or @hausfath done this? Not the “right” narrative result? 🙃 Let’s take a look
2/ Here is an example of such a pair. STILLWATER. Note that you can see the wind fence around the precipitation gauge on satellite picture — that round structure. ncei.noaa.gov/access/crn/pdf…
3/ Well, let’s do it. We try. And...
...no hockey stick.
Despite STILLWATER being a growing urban area.
So... where’s the hockey stick? Anyone?
We're told it should be there. But the best data says no.
1/ Mr. @hausfath packed multiple fallacies into one graph. We replicate: he used homogenized data. We get the same.
Bottom right shows the raw. His fallacy: claiming that USCRN-ClimDiv agreement in the modern era (where adjustments are ~zero) validates strong past adjustments.
3/ His fallacy is blatant bad faith. Measurement validation isn't done by induction. He claims adjustments are valid because USCRN-ClimDiv align from 2008-2024—yet no adjustments were made in that period. Then he asserts past adjustments are proven. Exceptional level of malice.
4/ Another fallacy: He cherry-picked 1970—the coldest point in 100 years. He highlights only post-1970 warming in green, hiding earlier trends. But the real scandal? Extreme (false) pre-1970 adjustments, erasing the 1930s warmth with absurd corrections.
1/ New tool - let's test with VALENTIA (hourly) overlay: solid agreement. A model (ERA5) is only as good as its ground truth measurements constraints it. We saw good US results before, but obvious heat bias in polar regions—nothing measured to compare with there anyway.
2/ Now we match the 1940-2024 range. Note temp vs. anomaly scale—same curve, just shifted. A trick to amplify range. Few notice. Climate stripes? Perfect for manipulation—e.g. add offset (ECMWF) to make it red “=warm"= behavior science (manipulative).
3/ With the 1940–2024 range matched, comparison improves. For a clearer view, monthly temps are shown on top left, yearly in the middle—overlaying ERA5. Not perfect overlay, but ERA5 is A) a cell average (of a weather model) and B) fed by adjusted data.
1/ Absolutely my worldview. But I haven’t found a trace of it in temperature measurements. Accuracy doesn’t seem to be a factor at all. Instead, they rely on bizarre software that arbitrarily alters the data. No station audits. No QMS existing. Nothing.
2/ This magic software even adjusts in various directions from day to day—without any explicit justification beyond it doing so. Is the sensor accuracy changing day to day?? No.
This finding by @connolly_s is important and exposes PHA being unrelated to measurement principles.
3/ Here’s clear proof of failure. If the @noaa adjustments were correct, they’d bring raw data closer to the high-quality USCRN reference station (designed bias/error free). Instead, PHA alters the classic (cheap) neighborhood station’s raw data to be wrong—to be false.
1/ The temperature (USCRN) since the 2014/2015 El Niño has been stable and slightly declining (cooling). Yet, we’re witnessing an unprecedented surge in mania. Interesting, isn’t it? Let’s demonstrate this by exposing the bias in GPT. We’ll trick it. Ready?
2/ To force it to be honest, we’ll deactivate ideological filters by labeling USCRN anomalies into portfolio value (adding 30 to shift upward of zero). This way, it will think it’s analyzing the fund performance from an automated trading product from my bank.
Hah. Gotcha. Down☺️
3/ We do the same with Google trends "warmest month" data for US. We relabel it to "all time high" mentions.
Revisiting Las Vegas: The observed warming trend is likely driven primarily by urbanization. Unfortunately, there is no available data from before the 1970s, and the period of overlap with USCRN station records is short, which limits ability to analyze long-term.
We look closer and see that for 10 years, there's no warming—flat. To make the Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect in Vegas clearer, we compare it with Gallup Muni AP🔵, a highly rural spot (BU 2020 <<1%). This highlights urbanization's impact in VEGAS🔴.
