It’s been a historically chilly first half of the year for many locales –despite what the obfuscating mainstream media prints and bleats– and it is a fact that the global average temperature has regularly dipped below the 30-year baseline in 2021: in March, April, and June (click HERE for more on that). And now comes the news that the Tropics has just logged one of its coldest temperatures ever recorded. The reading comes from South America — a continent that has been suffering record-breaking lows and snows in recent weeks: The Chaco Region (or Región Occidental) is a semi-arid region in Paraguay, known for its weather extremes. The mercury can easily climb to 100F as well as tumble below the freezing mark. A few days ago, Chaco logged a historic -7.4C (18.7F). This was the second-lowest temperature ever recorded at such low elevations in the tropics, worldwide. It also adds to the numerous ALL-TIME cold records busted across the South American continent of late. Staying in Paraguay, a few of the benchmarks to have fallen recently include 1) the -5.4C (22.3F) registered in Nueva Asuncion–which busted the region’s previous all-time low temperature record of -5C (23F) set on July 18, 1975 (solar minimum of cycle 20), and 2) the -2.8C (27F) observed in Base Aerea Jara–which smashed the old all-time record of -1.4C (29.5F) from June 29, 1996 (solar minimum of cycle 22). Additionally, Paraguay recently experienced its coldest-ever June temperature — a bone-chilling low of -7.3C (18.9F) was recorded at Pozo Hondo at the close of last month (although some sources have the record-breaker as the -7.5C (18.5F) at Pratt Gill; but regardless, a new all-time June low was set). Crossing Paraguay’s NE border, and into Bolivia, never-before seen lows have been logged here, too. These include, but are not limited to, 1) San Jose de Chiquitos’ reading of -1C (30.2F)–which comfortably usurped the +0.3C (32.5F) set back in May, 1949 and also brought with it the first-ever frost to the town, and 2) Ascension de Guarayos’ +1.2C–which annihilated the town’s previous all-time low of +4C (39.2F) from August, 1985 (solar minimum of cycle 21). And note that ALL of the weather stations above are AWSs, and are part of the DMH net of automatic stations — so there is no questioning their reliability (no more so than with any other official recognized station, that is). The mainstream media refuses to acknowledge the record-breaking negative anomalies currently sweeping vast swathes of the planet as it continues to push its AGW propaganda on a criminally ill-informed public. The facts are the facts, and during the peak of what the MSM would have you believe was a catastrophic and all-encompassing heatwave in the Pacific Northeast, global temperatures actually fell in June, 2021, to below the 30-year average: This is an impossibility under the global warming theory. The theory needs demoting to the status of hypothesis–or better yet, its needs rejecting altogether. Human carbon dioxide emissions have continued their upward trend in recent years, but global temperatures haven’t — on the contrary in fact, temps have fallen dramatically —down some 0.7C since the start of 2016— and no letup to this downward trend is in sight, particularly given the historically low solar activity we’ve receiving coupled with the ‘global cooling accelerator’ recently announced by NOAA, expected to arrive in the fall:
