About that ice melting in Greenland

Winter Snow Melt in Greenland Grossly Over-Estimated
Back in February, satellite observations indicated that snow was melting � in the dead of winter � across large portions of Greenland�s eastern coast. (I wrote about it here.) But now, it looks like the algorithm used to process data coming from the satellite was grossly over-estimating the melt.
The National Snow and Ice Data Center has revised the algorithm to better estimate conditions on the ground, and the result, posted to the Greenland Ice Sheet Today web site last night, is seen above. Whereas the original estimate seemed to show upwards of 50 days of melting in some places from the first of the year until now, the revised algorithm reveals very little surface melt at all.
The one unifying thing with the warmists is their reliance on computer models, on cherry-picking their data and their constant use of data 'processing'. They never just go out there and measure something.
Their computer models can not hindcast -- feed them the last 200 years of climate data and their models will not arrive at what we have outside this minute. How can we expect the same models to forecast our climate for the next 10 or 100 years?
