this must be the year they tested their prototype weather machine..W's great grand-daddy and Rove's great grand-daddy..

A "dust bowl" covered about 50 million acres in the south-central plains
during the winter of 1935-1936.

Whenever the "global warming" hysteria is aired on the TV news,
my mom just laughs dismissively.
And says, "Those yahoos don't know what they are talking about unless
they lived through the summer of 1936 in Oklahoma."

She says she remembers ranchers basically either selling (for pennies
on the dollar) their cattle or just losing them to the heat/drought.
And she was in the north-central area that wasn't the hardest hit.

"However, the first six months of this year were the hottest across the nation since the federal government began keeping records in 1890, according to Dennis Feltgen, a meteorologist with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration "


Yeah, this is why we were running the heat at my house into June for the first time in a very long time up here 60 miles north of NYC.

Was wondering what a 1930 SUV looks like. Didn't know they had them back then.

Wasn't Bush's grandfather a US Senator then?

I think it's common knowledge that National Weather Service stations have normally been set up at airports, especially the major airports. It just makes good sense to put them there where their services are heavily used.

New airports are almost always built out in open, undeveloped areas...where else do you come up with that much land?

Within a few years after the airport's opening, development and population creep out and surround it. After another few years, the airport literally becomes surrounded by city conditions and becomes part of a city "heat island". I immediately think of Chicago's O'hare (and before that, Midway) as examples, but I'm sure there are better ones.

This is the beginning of "local warming" for that weather station and it's data flows into the national database where "local warming" for a lot of big airports combines to become "national warming".

You can see where this goes.

But Michaels noted that high temperatures are common in the middle of the summer.

I've got nothing to say to that. I'm stuned.

Rush talked about this today. He mentioned that the world record was set in 9-1922 at 136 deg. I didn't catch where.

Did anyone catch the place?

Death Valley, CA
134 °F was reported there on July 10, 1913
Temperatures of over 120 °F were recorded in Death Valley, California on 43 consecutive days.

[packrat35]

The hottest temperature on Earth ever recorded most likely occurred in Death Valley, California during 43 consecutive days between July 6 and August 17, 1917. During those days, the temperature was over 48 degrees Celsius (120 degrees Fahrenheit). The national weather service recorded 56.7 °C (134 °F). The date reported there was July 10, 1913.

Rush gave the date as September 1922, and the location was a desert in some other country. I didn't get the country or the desert.

Heartless b@stards! Ruining the environment for everyone! ;)

"You can see where this goes."

Someone mentions 'The Mile High Club?' LOL! I absolutely HATE anytime we have to leave from O'Hare. I get cold sweats just thinking about driving down there. *SHIVER*

Anyhow, great observation. I'm astounded that ANYONE believes that Mankind is responsible for Global Warming. We are SO insignificant when you look at the Earth as a whole. Mother Nature can flick us off her back like a flea on a dog any d@mn time she wants to. (Floods, tornadoes, earthquakes, monsoons, tsunami waves, lightning strikes, fire, ice, etc.)

However, leave it to the Dems who have no god to worship but themselves to have a misguided guilt about their sad, shallow lives. Putting themselves above God and Nature and being "in charge" is their hang-up. ;)
