Heat island effect - urbanization continues in full swing in the Third World, thus surrounding the existing weather stations with more and more built up areas, which increase local temperatures.

Wake me up when Glacier National Park has no more Glaciers, they already 15 years overdue, according to prior prediction they made.

The satellite temps actually adjust for urban heat islands.

From memory - they measure air temp at more than 10,000 feet, which nullifies most of the increase.

Also, the satellites scan the entire globe, so urban heat islands make up just a fraction of 1% of the temp samples.

However - urban heat islands do have a huge impact on land temp averages, because a huge percentage of those temps come from urban instruments.

Zoom in on 2024 and it can be sold as the upside down hockey stick confirming the coming ice age.

Statistics and graphs are fickle creatures.
