i'm not a believer in global warming but i can never re-call in my entire life 100+ temperatures in the DFW area in the month of april and having to go through rolling brownouts. this looks like a summer here in texas that might be hotter than the summer of 1980
The big issue is actually whether or not human activity contributes to global warming. Some people "believe" our efforts are too small to make a difference. Other people "believe" our efforts are just enough to make a difference.
I note that Mankind learned to use fire just about the start of the current period of glaciation.
The NORMAL situation before that was minimal glaciation and ocean levels much higher than at present. In fact, but for the glaciation at Antarctica, I would have a beach-front property, and would be able to step out onto my porch in the evening and watch the waves roll in on the East Coast.
It's possible I will get this all back if Antarctica melts soon.
It's reasoning like this that makes folks susceptible to the pseudo-science of "global warming."
How long a time period is it you've been monitoring DFW weather?
Rounded to the nearest hundred-thousand years?
BTW, while 100 F yesterday was a record high, the record LOW for that date, 32 F, was set in 1999.
Seven years ago.
Were you fearing a new ice age at that time?
