    I've only commented on what you've put forward, which was one example. I don't profess to have any in depth knowledge of the man, as I have no real interest in him. I was merely commenting on the fact that one swallow does not make it summer...........

    So feel free to pipe down <ok>

    Tobes knows nothing about this subject but feels the need to chime in, and expects to be right using his "simple logic" as he calls it, which unfortunately doesn't apply to a subject and science he doesn't understand <laugh> Arrogance and ignorance hand it hand.

    To back up Corbyn as not being some magic 8ball gazer. There are a lot of "sources" from alarmists that slate him and completely misrepresent his work, so people like the alarmists on here can go read exactly what they want to read, without ever having to properly research this topic so they can get all arrogant while remaining ignorant.

    Svensmark and Christensen's work also supports Corbyn's work. #scientificsource < something Tobes is allergic to.

    Now Tobes where is you rebuttal of this, no opinions please, your opinion of me doesn't mean anything it is just bitter hot air.
    No skeptical science links are allowed cos the site is run by the same people who frauded the 97% consensus. John Cook et al

    Good solid science backing Corbyn up. Those stupid physicists eh with their snake oil <whistle>

    may i ask... how did they measure solar activity in 1550?

    just a polite question?

    Guesses made based on the number of sunspots big enough to be visible

    Sunspots have been recorded by scientists for hundreds of years MITO

    A filter on a camera can let you see sunspots, same with telescopes with filters back then

    All very pretty but do you have evidence that his predictions are better than others?

    I'm a businessman, not a scientist.

    So I'll take my view on the accuracy and success of his forecasting BUSINESS. His business was so ****e, that he had to take it off the stock exchange in 1999, due to the fact that it blew £550,000 in 2 years.

    He's patently made a fortune out of his predictions <laugh>

    Then why are you giving it socks about science and agreeing with things when you've no idea.

    As you said you claimed being right once is not proof of anything, but he wasn't just right once. His predictions are especially important to farmers, they need to know if they need to harvest early because with corn, if there are rains at the end of the growing season they need to harvest early otherwise more profitable mill corn will have to be sold as cheaper feed corn, which costs farmers money, also they need accurate forecasts for hay production too. They pay him for these predictions because of his accuracy.

    This is where his success lies.

    So, it is not just "one" prediction. He's a businessman too tobes and it seems he is doing well predicting weather.



    Put it this way, if you sell your predictions, how many could you sell if they are wrong? How can you make a business out of it, and become so well known if you are wrong as much as the met office?

    Also I am not a scientists either, but it doesn't stop me knowing my subject before I weigh in, food for thought <ok>

    Latest space weather news
    (July 6 0852UTC) The geomagnetic storms are subsiding. Sunspot Region 12381 is growing quickly and just released an M1 Class Solar Flare.
    (July 5 0400UTC) The Kp Index has hit 6, meaning earth is in a Level 2 Geomagnetic Storm
    (July 4 2208UTC) The Kp Index has hit 5, meaning earth is in a Level 1 Geomagnetic Storm
    (July 4 1912UTC) There is a Level 1 to 2 Geomagnetic Storm Watch due to the arrival of a coronal hole stream in the solar wind.
    (July 3 2206UTC) An M class solar flare erupted from the Sunspot Group 12378. An impact from a coronal hole shockwave is expected in the solar wind this weekend.

    Yeah pretty much. We've been recordng them since they were first seen over the centuries.

    Pretty good correlation to temps over centuries I must say, so the question is, with all this climate stuff in the news, how come this doesn't get airtime?<whistle>


    I have already shown NASA are fraudulently changing the history, they have already "abolished" the medieval warming period 600 papers support and deleted the 1930s dust bowl in the US from the historical record too. <doh>

    You keep asking this, what would you consider evidence, the only thing I could imagine would provide evidence to you is actually hearing him state something and then seeing what happens, so, why don't you buy one of his predictions and then see if he is right? All legacy predictions and events observed from the internet can be called false, we have no way of knowing it is legit.

    BBC or C4 made a short doc on him years ago because of his accuracy, they don't make docs about people who are no better than the 5 day meteorology standard prediction spell, the fact he does it months ahead is exceptional ergo they thought it worth a documentary.

    You're not a science expert yourself, so why the are you giving it the biggun?

    You **** around with computers for a living, so your science 'expertise' has come from ****ing google. <doh>

    A quick google search doesn't even turn up Weatheraction at companies house btw, so I'm guessing he can't be running a major business, as it's not even a Limited company ffs. He's also trading out a micro firms business centre in London.

    Big time this lad isn't he......

    This is where you fall down. How thick are you mate. (no laughy face or facepalm)

    I am using scientific data produced by scientists, I am using science to back up my points. I do not need to be a scientist to understand the data, I would need to be a scientist to PRODUCE the data. Are you really that stupid?

    I understand the science that produced computers yet I could not actually do the science to create computers.. do you understand?

    So it comes down to the credability of the science sources I use, and they are credible.
