"Sept. 14, 2006 — Summer 2006 was the second warmest June-to-August period in the continental U.S. since records began in 1895, according to scientists at the NOAA National Climatic Data Center in Asheville, N.C. Additionally, the 2006 January-to-August period was the warmest on record for the continental U.S. Above-average rainfall last month in the central and southwestern U.S. improved drought conditions in some areas, but moderate-to-extreme drought continued to affect 40 percent of the country."

This is stupid, and these guys are scientists. They know better but do not care that they are perpetrating a lie.
NOAA is the global warming hotbed. All of their data and studies are distorted to promote their personal opinions. Do not take this at face value.
One of the coolest Augusts on record in Fresno.
I live on Boston's south shore, and my office is on the Cape, and it has been as cool a summer as I can remember.
What a load of horseradish.
Every year in Phoenix is "the hottest summer". This year really wasn't too bad, since we got rain again. No Indian summer this year. We're under a hundred all week.
Not in NE CT. May was cold and wet. Summer ended here 3 weeks before Labor Day and on Wednsday morning it was 39 degrees on my little piece of Ct hill side.
so, the Great Depression caused the other warmest summer?
musta been the Okies headin West in their gas-guzzlin' trucks
In Buffalo, we had one of the most beautiful summers I can remember. Actually, the weather here has been season-perfect for the past couple of years. Fally-falls, summery-summers, wintery-winters, springy-srings. Perfect.
August in the SE PA area sure wasn't
We had one stretch of high 90s for about a week and that was it
August wasn't like the Augusts I remember
Maybe one day at the beginning in the 90s
So, where's my waterfront property from the melting glaciers?
Do it for the children.
Never really got close to 80 here in central NY this past August...cool,rain, miserably drab gray skies..oh wait.....typical central NY weather
They are?
Seems like they get attacked from every side......
Well, thats it. Summer was warm. Time to nationalize all industry (for the children) and outlaw internal combustion engines (for the masses)
Here in Northern CA we had a very hot July, but August was quite a bit cooler than normal.
NOAA Dudes. We are so dead. All of us. Eventually. This just dawned on me. *SMIRK*
We had a fairly cool summer here in Michigan.
Frost in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan already.
Could Gore Be wrong?????????????
"NOAA is the global warming hotbed."
There's some at NASA too.
Everyone of these stories, when you get to the "evidence" it's based on proxies, modeling and all sorts of nonsense. Never reading thermometers and averaging them.
