Recently, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Agency (NOAA) announced that 2015 had the hottest global average temperature ever measured, shattering the previous record held in 2014. The news was widely reported in the media, including the New York Times, which declared that global warming, which had paused since 1998, is back and with a vengeance. The clear implication was that the sooner we stop using fossil fuels and putting all that carbon dioxide in the air, the better

I remember 2015 as if it was no more than a year or so ago.
Winter would not end. We didn’t have any massive dumps of snow, but we had several storms that were enough to keep kids home. And winter just dragged on... and on... it was so nice when summer finally arrived, weeks late.

Fake, from start to finish. FAKE!

(CNN) - Change is in the wind. The U.S. National Weather Service is about to revise how it measures the wind chill factor for the first time in 56 years.

Under the old system, an air temperature of 20 degrees Fahrenheit with a 15-mph wind speed would result in a wind chill of 5 degrees below zero, according to the weather service.
Under the same conditions, the new index would show an 11-degree increase in the wind chill factor: 6 degrees above zero.
“We’re trying to ... generate a public education campaign, and we urge our users out there to take this seriously even though the numbers have been warmed up,” said Mark Tew, who heads the weather service project as chairman of the Joint Action Group on Temperature Indices.

The record is only about 150 years old.
The record is only fairly accurate for the last 30 years or so.
Giving credence and validity to short, snapshot recent "records" out of a span of over 4 billion years of unknown climate events, is akin to making your lifetime investment decisions based only on the last 15 seconds of the NYSE last Friday.

NOAA measuerd the DOW this month and found this is the largest increase in the DOW ever.
