You would think that 0.12 degree Celsius (0.2 Fahrenheit) would be well within a margin of error. Thermometers were not even digital until the past 20 years. How can they even pretend to be so precise? Junk madeup voodo “science”. More likely political science.
I am not even sure these “scientists” rely on thermometers for measurement, I think they are using tree rings this year.
