We often see attempts by 'climate change' advocates to say that unusually cold weather is also somehow just as much proof of their ideas, as hot weather is. But this goes beyond that. It's really hard to see how anybody could argue that the NOAA data is accurate and honest. They are claiming that July was warmer than average in parts of Australia, as part of their general statement that this was the hottest month ever. But Australia's own Bureau of Meteorology - which is an agency that pushes the climate change agenda as hard as any, and certainly wants people to believe in it - says the exact opposite about local conditions. It has no agenda to oppose the NOAA - it is in accord with it politically.

The temperature has been increased in lockstep with the chocolate ration.

How did our cool weather get logged by NOAA as hot?

Because they're lying.

Let's not overthink this.

for our brothers and sisters down under that may be unfamilar with American democrats... let me provide some insight.

whenever a democrat communicates, what will be produced will be lies. they are the party of no ethics or morals. they commit fraud like you prepare breakfast, and just as regularly.

NOAA has been fudging statistics and cooking the book for years. It's gotten to be laughable - its claims often conflict with its own public data. If you can place a Las Vegas bet that 2015 will be NOAA's hottest year ever, do it because no matter how cold the last four months of the year are, the claim will be made.

Here, we had a cool and wet Spring and seasonal Summer weather. Much cooler and more pleasant than we were in drought a few years ago.

Actually, there isn’t as much difference in the two maps as the author suggests. The NASA map suggests a slightly warmer average temperature, but not dramatically so.

I think I heard our August average this year was 84. 84! One of the cooler ones I remember.

It would be interesting to see if the problem is with NOAA’s current data or with the historical data. I bet the second because it is far easier to lie about old data and refuse to publish the raw data.

To the Left, lies and ‘truth’ are of equal importance, and equal validity. Does a ‘lie’ advance the Ultimate Victory of Socialism? Then, it is justified. It’s for the People’s welfare, so Ends justify Means.

I remember when that put up that satellite to measure global warming (about 10 year ago or so). I thought at the time it was a big waste of money. Now, I now it was, because it shows - from space - that there is no global warming. But the left ignores it.

Scientific data only works when it works for them.

Oh, well . . .

[beethovenfan]

Yes, I can explain it - they LIE!

[SkyDancer]

Because global warming causes global cooling - get it?

[maxwellsmart_agent]

Starting to catch on to what is going on?

[GreyFriar]

they take actual temperatures and then add a couple of degrees to match their computer models and WaLaa: cold is now HOT.

With over 2000 record cold temps set here in the USA earlier this year, we still managed the HOTTEST YEAR EVER ON RECORD!!! EVER!!!

Any my AGW Hysterion associates still can’t understand why I am a “denier.”

"How did our cool weather get logged by NOAA as hot?"

"Human resources" departments in government offices related to the sciences gave women preferences for decades.

You never heard of temperature inversion?

[Dr.Deth]

Kind of like in the northeast this past year where it didn’t get above freezing for the month of February for the first time on record, yet was miraculously reported the warmest ever recorded by NOAA-countability
