So let me get this straight, the red line indicates model predictions from 1979?
IOW, they are comparing what models were predicting in 1979 with observed data since?
I think our modeling may have improved some since 1979.

According to the adherents I know, the heat is contained in the mid levels of the ocean and not the atmosphere. This is how they explain the models being off. Could be, may not be.

It looks that way.

Sure.
But I think the point is a lot of alarmist prediction were made off these models and a lot of policy proposals were made off these models.

No, it hasn't. NASA models in 1996 predicted total catastrophe by 2010. It didn't happen. It never happens. Wash, rinse, repeat.

No doubt models have improved, and in another 35 years the same thing will be said when the models continue to be way off.
Bottom line is the alarmists were way off base and refuse to acknowledge that fact.

The red line indicates model predictions from The Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society (BAMS Vol. 94, No. 8) supplement titled "State of the Climate - 2012"
"State of the Climate - 2012"(It is very large file, takes several minutes to load)

And that is exactly why they predicted us to have such a cold, and snowy winter...................... oh wait.
Never mind.
