... for temperatures above 0 degrees Centigrade ...
to be converted to Fahrenheit is to do C x 1.8 + 32 = F.
Thus 40 degrees C becomes 40 x ( 2 - 0.2) + 32 = 80 - 8 +32 = 104 degrees F...
Notice the use of ( 2 - .2 ) replacing 1.8 so that you can calculate it without use of a calculator.
Ponder that....
Someone from the AGW temple needs to address this.....
Here’s the formula to use, if you visit northern Canada or Alaska in the winter:
-40* C = -40* F
To convert -50* C to Fareinheit:
Take the difference from -40* — in this case -10* C
Multiply by 9/5 (or 1.8) = -18*F
Add (-40* F +(-18* F) = -58* F

Hmm....Death valley will beat that every year...not that far away from here.
A few hours away via the Interstate 15.
Thanks.
In the pre-industrial era, horses were the primary source of power. Those heat waves must be attributed to equine flatulence.
No Smoking Hot Spot (The Australian)
That article takes Greenhouse Theory at face value and by the criterion set up in the theory itself finds no evidence of warming on the basis of greenhouse effect.
The Hidden Flaw in Greenhouse Theory
Falsification Of The Atmospheric CO2 Greenhouse Effects Within The Frame Of Physics
Harvard astrophysicist dismisses AGW theory, challenges peers to 'take back climate science'
It Is Impossible For A 100 ppm Increase In Atmospheric CO2 Concentration To Cause Global Warming
Those four articles each show that Greenhouse Theory has no basis in reality due to a direct conflict with the known laws of physics. No wonder the smoking gun "hotspot" can't be found.
Claim That Sea Level Is Rising Is a Total Fraud
That article pretty much puts the kibosh on any serious trend of planetary warming from any cause. Think about it. If there is absolutely no sign at all of rising sea levels how could the planet be warming? Beyond the centuries long slow warming of the earth and rising of the seas of course. But that is only a few millimeters per century due to the inter-glacial period we are in.
A cold day is warmer than freezing?
hahaha. Good one.

Has There Been An Increase In the Number of Natural Disasters?
“So have there been more natural disasters in recent years? In a word, NO.
What we have, rather, is an increase in our ability to detect hurricanes, tornadoes and earthquakes.”

That is handy....thanks.
Great work there.
I love the State....had an Aunt out around Grand Junction and Grand Mesa.
Man O man, I didn't realize there were so many famines.
Nope, born and raised in CO. I’m in Estes Park now and for most of the last 20+ years. Gosh, I haven’t been to Grand Mesa since I was about 5. I ought to go see that again.
Thanks for the ping!
