Never turned on the air conditioning here in midcoast Maine.
And, BTW, they've only had accurate temps for the last 50 yea, with modern equipment.
And, Oh!, These people are full of sh*t!
Sunshine
On my shoulder
Makes happy
Sunshine in my eyes can make me blind
If I had a reason
To cast a doubt
Sunshine would my rhyme
😎
O! M! G!
Quick run around in circles!
Political Science, that is science driven by politics. Total crap.
I’m only in a D0 Abnormally Dry county.
I call this BS. We had one or two days the summer where the temps were in the low to mid 90’s. In Rochester, NY, it was 100 degrees on June 21, 1953. I was 5 years old. On July 10, 1936, in Rochester, the temperature reached 102 degrees. There’s been temps in the high 90’s in Rochester, since they first started keeping temp records.
Last month was not only the hottest August scientists ever recorded by far with modern equipment,
= = =
Hot, ‘modern equipment’.
They, I hope, are not referring to some trans’s kit.
Nah, sounds like weasel words. What really they mean is, they've just deployed a bunch of brand new thermometers this year, and this is the first time they've ever recorded, so yes, this is the hottest - or coldest - or onliest temps ever on this equipment.
Yeah, I’m going to listen to an organization that was once headed by a Nazi.
Thank you Dave.
A ridge of high pressure has been parked over the south central and southwest since late June with record highs in Texas, New Mexico and Arizona. The location may be dependent on global wind patterns (as you say, not every place like NY was affected), but I’d put the blame for the degree of heat on the water vapor in the atmosphere, as H2O vapor has much more of an impact as a greenhouse gas than does carbon dioxide.

WE’VE HIT THE TRIFECTA!
It’s interesting how this claim relies on temperature data from 5 miles above sea level to five miles below sea level.
What? It only comes from continental surface monitoring stations in “urban sprawl” areas?
That’s very interesting.
11-12 year solar cycles drive Pacific Ocean circulation. They come in pairs, with even-numbered cycles being equatorial and odd-numbered cycles being polar. El Niños happen near the peaks of odd-numbered cycles.
El Niños happen when the two Pacific oceans stop turning outwardly, and compress to center circulation. The western hot water migrates back to the eastern equatorial Pacific.
We are nearing the peak of solar cycle 25 where we should see an El Niño. However, solar cycle 24 was so weak that the weakened pacific circulation allowed an El Niño to occur two years early.
The North Pacific circulation (PDO) slings kinks into our northern atmospheric jet stream, and causes North America’s cold fronts and monsoon rains. The current western drought is happening because of weakened North Pacific circulation, and ultimately because of weak solar output.
