Extreme Temperatures In England?
Discussion of “extreme temperatures” tends to revolve around highs rather than lows. In a warming world, high temperature extremes will inevitably become more common, just as lows get rarer. But is there any sign that the former will outweigh the latter?
In other words, are temperatures really becoming more extreme?
As far as this country is concerned, we can check out the Central England Temperature Record.
ECAD provide a useful tool, which shows the number of days each year when temperatures were either below the 10th or above the 90th percentile since 1900:
As we would expect, the number of warm days has increased, and the number of cold ones declined.
When we add the two together, we find that if anything the warming trend has declined since 1900.
It has NOT increased as the media would have you believe.
The most extreme year was, by the way, 1947, with 1919 in second place:
Somehow, I doubt whether the Met Office will tell you this!

Editor’s note: The Central England Temperature Record is the longest-running temperature record in the world, beginning in 1659. This is the complete record up to 30th August 2021. It should be noted the steep rises and falls are primarily due to the large gaps inbetween half-degree increments.

Oh no…you’ve done it now. Coldest winter ever.

There is certainly something to note between the difference between the minimums and maximums.
I mean, differentiating, you get divergence. But now the thing is, what is the attribution left to?
Considering, Chemtrails, EMF, “radiofrequency research” (that’d be part of industry)…uh, perhaps AGW should be looked at in terms of energy used (as well as associated regulation disruption).
On a more local scall, imagine for instance certain areas are continually cloud seeded, since the 1960s, or certain areas with particularly peculiar atmospheric EMF and chemical alterations. That’s another way to push up (or down) minimums and maximums.
I mean you can cause an instant cold snap with silver iodide and related shit.

Excuse the typing.
But basically, energy use increases, related environmental (regulatory) disruption. It could be causing systemic equalization disruption. There’s your potential AGW. Not just fractionally miniscule Co2.
Your smartphones, your research labs, your excessive industries.

Increase in pavement for roads, parking lots, industrial etc. may also have an effect

Indeed, all of it from disrupting the environment, using energy and materials to construct that stuff. I was basically suggesting industry, energy use as a whole and the related environmental damaging clearly has some effects.
And on either side of the AGW argument, in typical industrial controlled op fashion, there’s ignorance of everything except the focal points of the agendas being pushed.
You clearly have geoengineering, chemtrails and shit all over the world. Urban areas are clearly heat/energy sinks, industrial areas leave wastelands with no concern for habitats, regulatory (as in thermodynamically, environmental) function.
And it’s quite a problem if your “economy” is a euphemism for exploitation, and what’s called “energy need” is in fact, simply industrial, exploitative energy greed. Usually also related to hegemonic, monopolistic control and artificial scarcities.

Like, as a random “insignificant” example, how many people consider for instance, that there’s a reason gold, silver, lead, uranium is related because of equalization function in terms of physics?
The gold, silver, lead happens to be particularly good blockers of uranium, related radiation. Almost as if that stuff is balanced due to some stabilizing processes…and then it gets disrupted, for that excessive greed, with complete ignorance.

Not so long ago, I read an article of the CEO of a mining company trying to treat phosphorus and nitrogen as interchangeable in terms of agriculture.
Like, wtf do these morons come from? How do they get to those positions?

Even I know the basics. In my garden I will use Nitrogen for root and “green” growth. Phosphorous for blooms and fruit.
slandermen

Phosphorus and calcium is pretty important for roots, fruits/flowers/seeds.
The reason underground parts use relatively, a lot of phosphorus is simply that they don’t have sunlight exposure. That’s also one of the reasons seeds tend to load up on phosphorus (as the plants won’t have good sunlight/energy/photosynthesis for a while). The phosphorus being the closest to “material sunlight”.
Nitrogen and potassium for foliage and branching.

Btw, I do believe phosphorus is probably more essential for life than carbon, if I look at the concentrations in living organisms and consider basic cellular energy (ATP). Relatively, it’s far more concentrated in life than carbon.

“Phosphorus is essential for creating life’s building blocks, such as DNA, ATP, and lipids. But a long-standing problem has been where early life would have gotten its supply of phosphorus molecules, which typically are found only in tiny amounts in the natural environment. In fact, phosphorus is much more enriched in terrestrial organisms—compared to its natural background abundance—than carbon is. That’s why I have argued in the past that we should label life on Earth as being phosphorus-based rather than carbon-based.”

I’ll use a basic 3 in 1 osiris. When flowering, or fruit is approaching, I could switch to Tomato feed, but tbh, things are working out with the basic. Mainly strawberries.

Basically the only NPK sort of fertilizer I’d bother with is soft rock phosphate or (low level) super phosphor.
Before I’d bother with NK stuff, I’d use like, blackstrap molasses, kelp. Way more useful in general.
slandermen

Reason being, nitrogen is easy to get, you can use almost anything. Piss.
The benefits from the enzymes, growth regulators/hormones, amino acids, sugars, and other minerals associated with the molasses (which typically has relatively high potassium content) and kelp (fair amount of nitro) vastly outweigh the benefits of just NK stuff.

I only do gardening part time. I want whatever is easiest.

Well, if I had to give you a basic growth booster combo, in general…
Blackstrap molasses, kelp, yeast.
Here 25kg of blackstrap molasses is like $8. About $10-15 for 5l kelp. And yeast in bulk is also cheap (as you don’t use much of it), like $5 for a kilogram.
And you don’t use much of that stuff, but the effects are dramatic (soil microbial activity, plant growth boosters and varied minerals).

The nearest thing I have is excess pond weed. I’ll place on the tops of pot plants to break down, though Rabbit poop Is pretty good.
I looked at the links. Interesting, but I’m no chemist.

Yeah, you can use basically anything as “green manure”. Aquatic plants are in general quite good.
Rabbit shit is good stuff (depending on their diets, the more varied, the better).

Like, the past two winters, I’ve grown some marijuana plants through dozens of frosts, temps reaching like -6c here. Outdoors, uncovered (except on particularly cold days).
I’ve figured out a bit on how to mitigate cold temps.
slandermen

Oh, and the thing about green manure (especially), or actual manure is that it tends to be heavily nitrogen biased. Nitrogen is easy to overdo.
slandermen
| #
The most common mistakes I see marijuana growers (observing on that growdiaries site), for instance, make is that they don’t use enough calcium, carbon, phosphorus and often excessive nitrogen, magnesium and potassium (ironically, things THEY need).
slandermen

Vaguely speaking.
For heavy fruiting/seed plants, you want more phosphorus than nitrogen. And some extra calcium.
For very leafy vegetables, more nitrogen than phosphorus.
How much potassium depends, but vaguely, how much does the plant branch, how many nodes? You’ve have the potassium basically scaled relative to that. You can even kinda “force” a tendency for extra nodes with more potassium, but again, something to be careful with, as the plants don’t get rid of potassium and it’s not a “building block”, meaning it recirculates.

“For heavy fruiting/seed plants, you want more phosphorus than nitrogen.”
Sorry, relatively, not in absolute terms. You’re rarely going to want to use more phosphorus than nitrogen in absolute terms.
More phosphorus when the plant is rooting (in your soil mix where it’s planted) and more phosphorus when the plant flowers.
Nitrogen in early-mid stages. Potassium relative to plant size, branching, sort of.

I’m probably dumb so I don’t get it. Warm days are increasing, cold days are decreasing. That is consistent with the average temperature going up. How can adding them up together be an indicator of warming or cooling trend ? No trend in this sum just means average temperature is going up.

But it also says there’s greater disparity., deviation.
And all of it, thanks to ignorance of excessive industrial toxic horseshit.
As controlled opposition, hegelian dialectic, both sides want more industry. There IS anthropogenic climate change, and excessive INDUSTRY as a whole is kinda guilty.
They geoengineer (hey, I consider you raping the earth for your profit-motivated exploitation unnecessary entropic garbage, mostly, as geoengineering. That includes excessive and ignorant coal, lithium, oil, uranium, agriculture, etc)…and they try to peddle more industry or at least, acceptance of that as “solutions”.

That means, the trend before 2000 was roughly stable. Since then, more deviation from the trend.
But hey, I’m fucking stupid. Never had a statistics class, so maybe I don’t know how to lie properly?

The “warm” started here very late. The trees know, and they overslept this time around. One frog sighted and no frog spawn at all. It’s allready getting cool now, and the trees are dropping leaves again. Warming Is a Lie. More now than ever.
As children we used to get ice on the inside of the window glass, which was without an impending Ice age, though there was talk of one from the conversations I heard. This time, It is set. The forecast is worse.
All these activist “young uns” have a real shock coming.

World temperatures regularly go up and down like yo-yo’s in a number of fairly regular cycles. These cycles determine sun spot activity as well as minor variations in our planet’s orbit around our star.
We know what a “warm” period looks like from Roman and Medieval records – times of great prosperity and cultural flowering as warmer temperatures engendered massive increases in the production of foodstuffs. Both the Roman and the Medieval flowerings were terminated by dramatic temperature falls causing food shortages. The beginning of The Little Ice Age around the year 1300 lead for to mass-deaths by starvation in 1315 – 17 and the chronic mineral deficiencies which caused the Black Death (Ebola) in 1347 – 51.
The question which no-one seems to be asking here is just why we are told to view prosperity and cultural flowering as a very bad thing rather than to enjoy it. We note that it is, world-wide, the “green” parties which are especially vehement in promoting the lie and we must, perforce, ask why they are so rabid in all attempts to abuse the natural warming cycles to restrict technological advance, destabilise electrical energy production and prevent mineral-resource rich Africa from enjoying their next natural flowering and the end of poverty.
Looking at what finances and controls the “greens” and their violent “SS” troops (ANTIFA) we see everywhere the tentacles of the banking cartel – the destructive force which rose to power during The Little Ice Age and which certainly will lose power in the period of great natural prosperity which has recently (ca. 1870) begun.
The “Greens”, being little more than a propaganda arm of the banking cartel exclusively aimed at creating a new feudal system of slavery to the Great God “Money”, is something that all of us need to reject absolutely. Their constant attempts in California and Germany to legalise child sexual abuse shows clearly what sort of depraved people these are: They should not be accepted as members of the human family.
Blessed be

Hi Karma Singh,
I believe It is fair to say mankind Is at rock bottom of devolution. It’s obvious something has to give.
If people want an alternative view as to why we are where we are, they could peruse articles on “the Kali Yuga”. “The Great Year”, “Sacred Geometry”. and The End Times. These are interconnected, and It is notable that all these are reaching a head about now.
Yes, It’s religious “mumbo jumbo” to most, but I believe It will stir the mind in more beneficial directions than the propagandists can..
