Thursday was the planet’s warmest day on record, extending the alarming streak to four days

The planet’s temperature soared again on Thursday to levels not seen in the modern record-keeping era, marking the fourth straight day of record temperatures. These alarming new records are likely the highest temperatures in “at least 100,000 years,” one scientist told CNN.

The global average daily temperature climbed to 17.23 degrees Celsius (63.01 degrees Fahrenheit) on Thursday, according to the University of Maine’s Climate Reanalyzer, which uses data from the US National Centers for Environmental Prediction.

It’s been a week of record-breaking temperatures. On Monday, the average global temperature reached 17.01 degrees Celsius (62.62 degrees Fahrenheit), the highest in the NCEP’s data, which goes back to 1979. On Tuesday it climbed to 17.18 degrees Celsius, where it remained on Wednesday.

Before this week, the record in NCEP’s data was 16.92 degrees Celsius and was set in August 2016.

Though this week’s records are not yet official, another global climate tracking agency confirmed several in its own data. The European Union’s Copernicus Climate Change Service said Monday’s and Tuesday’s global temperatures were also records in its data, which dates back to 1940.

While the records are based on observational data sets that only go back to the mid-20th century, they are “almost certainly” the warmest temperatures the planet has seen over a much longer time period, according to Jennifer Francis, a senior scientist at Woodwell Climate Research Center.

Francis estimated that this week’s temperatures are the warmest “probably going back at least 100,000 years,” calling the records “a huge thing.”

Hmmmm! I think of them as fookin’ idjits. And the folkx that buy into it too.

[VeniVidiVici]

I’d say it’s probably the warmest temps in over 100 billion years. Give or take

Foggy all day on the Oregon coast....

[Sacajaweau]

what a crock....no one knows the temperature of the earth....and whatever the temperature is....that's what it's supposed to be.

Put a thermometer on pavement and one under a tree...say 25 feet away....and read them. just too many variables...

[House Atreides]

They’ve been “cooking” the underlying temperature data for decades.

YAWN

[GSWarrior]

Will anyone stop them from attempting to reflect sunlight away from the planet?

[HartleyMBaldwin]

Oh, for heaven’s sake. Someone came up with a new BS computer program that invents global temperature. I could write a program that increments the previous day’s global temperature by one degree, and then global warming would be guaranteed forever. It would have to be true, because the computer says so.

At which point, I shall stop calling him a scientist. The official record only goes back 100 years or so.

[Tell It Right]

They tell us over and over and over that warming temperatures raise the sea levels.

Well, history tells us of prior coastlines in the northern hemisphere being further inland during the Medieval Warm Period (topping out roughly 700 to 800 years ago). That corresponds with multiple research studies on Antarctica (read: southern hemisphere) that temps were warmer there too during the Medieval Warm Period. But they science denying Dims want us to believe our Modern Warm Period is hotter than ever and somehow unprecedented.

And the Medieval Warm Period is just one of many prior warm periods hotter than today's Modern Warm Period.

That chart needs to be shared repeatedly .
It says it all. “Experts” are making these huge judgements with a tiny slice of data.
And in my opinion that “data” is hugely skewed. Any warming may just be simply from building heat emitting roads and house roofs near temperature measuring stations over the years . The heat island effect.

[Tell It Right]

This chart is from NASA showing the Medieval Warm Period being much warmer than today. NASA!! But this was in 1990, before Clinton's regime changed how government money was used to "research" global warming to get only the expected "results". Thus, NASA had to remove this from memory.

(((YAWN))) And they dragged the little Swedish Meatballs hippy ass off to jail.

[Jim Noble]

Warmer than Paleozoic?

Oh, and why did the glaciers melt?

[Thunder90]

Also keep in mind that during the Roman occupation of what is now southern Britain they were wearing togas in the winter time. And, the vikings named Newfoundland “Vineland” because it was warm enough to grow grapes for wine there at that time. Now not so much. So the world’s climate has been much warmer in recorded history than it is now, we just didn’t have instruments to measure it.

[Maine Mariner]

Yes, starting with putting temperature gauges in cities with lots of asphalt and concrete.
