    More fake news supporting the climate alarmists.
    In my neck of the woods it has not been this cold and wet for this long for years, and they tell us Oz is heating up.

    Enough is enough. The Bureau of Meteorology yet again stands charged with fabricating temperature records.
    This time, thanks to the diligence of scientist Jennifer Marohasy, the bureau has been caught red-handed regulating temperatures to keep them above a predetermined minimum — at least for two NSW automatic weather stations, one located in Goulburn, the other at Thredbo.
    The BOM initially admitted it had set an arbitrary limit of minus 10C for the Goulburn station, but then changed the story to the equipment being “not fit for purpose” — because it got too cold — even though the same instruments are used in the Antarctic. The actual temperature measured was a record July low for Goulburn, at minus 10.4C, so why, if the equipment was faulty, didn’t the bureau leave a blank instead of rounding up to minus 10C?
    Allowing the bureau to defend itself, Environment Minister Josh Frydenberg called for an internal review.
