Do they include Alaska in that US “average”? It is part of the US... And in particular, do they include it as its proportional land area of the US? Alaska has had a bitter cold winter and it is a huge area.

Or is the author picking and choosing what defines the "US average"?

It also cracks me up when they say the hottest since xxx years ago... Like the above 117 years... Well if it was that hot 117 years ago then it obviously within the normal range. And it doesn't at all make it some sort of anomaly proving that it is man made... So stupid on so many levels...

Of course Europe was seeing record cold and Libya had a snowfall and Rome had a foot of snow......

Funny admitting that tgis year was warmer than 117 years ago when we were being told every year that it was the warmist on record and unprecidented warmth....
