7 Aug: Climate Depot: AccuWeather Founder/CEO: ‘No evidence so far that extreme heat waves are becoming more common because of climate change’ – ’26 of 50 states set their all-time high temp records during 1930s’
By Dr. Joel N. Myers, AccuWeather Founder and CEO: “Kansas City, Missouri, for example, experienced an average of 18.7 days a year at 100 degrees or higher during the 1930s, compared to just 5.5 a year over the last 10 years. And over the last 30 years, Kansas City has averaged only 4.8 days a year at 100 degrees or higher, which is only one-quarter of the frequency of days at 100 degrees or higher in the 1930s.
Here is a fact rarely, if ever, mentioned: 26 of the 50 states set their all-time high temperature records during the 1930s that still stand (some have since been tied). And an additional 11 state all-time high temperature records were set before 1930 and only two states have all-time record high temperatures that were set in the 21st century (South Dakota and South Carolina).
So 37 of the 50 states have an all-time high temperature record not exceeded for more than 75 years. Given these numbers and the decreased frequency of days of 100 degrees or higher, it cannot be said that either the frequency or magnitude of heat waves are more common today.”...

Who said, “If I had a house in Texas and a house in hell, I’d rent out the house in Texas and live in hell”?
Gosh - and we had a slight bit of less heat in the Biloxi area - highs been high 80’s to 92 and I can remember years where 95 was happening for a couple straight weeks....
It has routinely been hitting 100 in the two decades I have lived in the Houston area. The hot days are actually late this year. We’re experiencing cooler weather now. It’s global cooling!
