That July forecast held up for much of the U.S. The 2013/2014 winter was one of the coldest in 20 years for the Midwest and eastern U.S., and was followed up with one of the coolest summers in decades. See both links.
The heat seems to be confined to the western U.S. And you are welcome to it. ~:)

but as far as absolute temps are concerned, this has been a (relatively) cool summer compared to those in our recent past. It was just in 2011 we had 70 days above 100 for highs. 23 this year so far IIRC.

After struggling with the coldest/harshest winter in over 50 years, we have been treated to one of the coolest summers on record. Perhaps THE coolest.
And an increase in the frequency and extremity of extreme events, which does seem to be happening.
We've just had one of our coldest ever Winters here, too. But it hasn't changed my understanding of the predictions nor of my belief that it most likely is happening.

As numerous writers have noted, Global warming fear mongers at the BBC warned us in 2007, that by summer 2013, Antarctica would be ice-free. But scientists have noted Antarctica is sporting record levels of ice and is at a 35-year high when it comes to the stuff.NASA’s satellites have been measuring global temperatures for 35 years, including the Antarctic. During that time there has actually been a slight cooling trend while the Antarctic sea ice has grown to a record amount. This is at stark variance with the BBC and IPCC’s hysterics about dangerous polar warming.
In fact, the highest measurement for Antarctic sea ice of all time was set on October 1st 2013. Admittedly, “there has been some slight warming in the area of the Antarctica Peninsula but the huge mass of ice sheets are located in East and West Antarctica, which measurements show to be cooling,” reports cfact.org.
In 2007 we were told global warming meant less ice around Antarctica. In 2013 we were told global warming meant more ice around Antarctica due to the extremes predicted by global warming models. Less ice, more ice, whatever. It’s global warming!
And what about those global warming models we hear so much about? Are they accurate? Uh, not so much. As one climate scientist patiently pointed out: “Anyone familiar with Antarctic sea ice knows it has been at or near record expansion the past several years and global warming models have mostly predicted reduced Antarctic sea ice allegedly due to global warming.” Ouch.
Today, many scientists are increasingly moving toward a global cooling consensus. See link. Perhpas that's why the doomsayers have changed their own terminology from "global warming" to "climate change."

No matter what the weather does, they'll say it's proof they're right (as you said). Huge gulf hurricanes in '05? They were shouting "proof of man made climate change" from the top of their lungs. Far fewer gulf hurricanes since? Proof of climate change as well.

Agreed. BTW...thanks for the posts concerning your experiences as a member of a GJ. That was a real eye-opener.
Yes Tim. Extremes become more prevalent. That's what I've been seeing here anyway. The data are there but you'll never change a closed mind. Especially one closed from political bias.
