Did not want to overstate my recollection. I sure didn’t.
I was so busy back then I couldn’t afford to pay attention. I spent most of that year on Grand Mesa on a big project.
1980 summer in Houston was brutal also.
I was working for Tx Highway Department fixing barriers and potholes all summer.
They massaged the “records”, and will trumpet the Global Warming talking points 24/7, via the Globalist mouthpieces of Fake News. Global Elites are enjoying their payoff from investments made and finally facilitated, after the Coup of 2020.
In summary: it was warmer in the 1930s.
Be aware of the possibility that today's warm temperatures are *surface temperatures* detected by satellites, not temperatures from weather stations some feet above the ground.
Ground temperature is not the same as air temperature. When it's hot, ground temperature is 10 to 40 F warmer.
They know it is false, but they lie anyway. Dr Goebbels would be proud of them.
The five hottest July 27ths in the US were 1931, 1952, 1914, 1901 and 1930. On July 27, 1931 almost 70% of the US was over 90F, and people in multiple states were starving from the drought
Not a problem at all. That was my first full year in the area and it’s burned into my memory, so to speak. ;-)
"July 26 afternoon temperatures in Illinois have dropped about seven degrees since 1930"
It can be found here
***Some of us have been around long enough to remember and know***
My thoughts exactly. I’ve been around since 1946 and still remember super hot Hot HOT days in the Ozarks without an AC.
I bet the Meteorologists are hoping for the day when we oldsters are no longer around to remind people of the super hot days of the 1970s when we were supposed to be entering THE COMING ICE AGE!
This year has been rather cool and wet for the Ozarks. Now it is beginning to get up to normal hot temps.
Look at the brutal temps for Tulsa! I still remember April 12, 1972. 102 degrees. Others had temps as high as 106.

I lived in Tulsa 1968 to 1970. Once billed as “America’s most beautiful city” I’m easily convinced it is easily one of America’s hottest. It seems to sit in a bowl of sorts between the Osage Hills and Ozark Uplift soaking up sun and humidity.
All of the South swelters in a sauna for the summer. Not at all a dry heat but the SW part in Texas and Oklahoma get no rain at all many summers. A lot of days I look longingly East to central Arkansas and cloud tops with mostly parched skies to our West. 30 miles and only just 600 to 800 feet higher a lot of days are 3 to 5 degrees cooler but certainly not cool.
So it goes.
I think it was about ‘96 i traveled west somewhere and on one of what used to be radiator boil over days of 103 in the shade there was a hot laid blacktop job going on. Had to be miserable.
The contractor was Flatiron Paving Company out of some place like Tuscon or Tempe.
the hottest because they have required all reporting weather stations to move their measuring devices half the distance to the ground...
yeah, thats the ticket
What happened to the network os what were to be eternally non urban setting traditional weather stations to refute climate denier claims of heat island impacts?
Did they not provide the right data?
I would say its normally hot in metro Atlanta for July. We had a cool spring and June. 2 months and fall will be here with a predicted below normal cold winter.
do “they” ever?
by SET they mean pre ordained to be fudged into existence one way or another.
like they are going fudge an economic “non recession” data reporting system that functions right up until the election next year...
they will blame it on trump when the real numbers come out the following quarter... or blame it on his run for office as being the root cause... to get another obama puppet elected and supporting the ‘eternal state structure”
... imho.. YMMV
I have to call BS. If it’s so damn hot, why haven’t the miggie invaders slowed down? They’re still showing up by the thousands as fresh and as fat as spring flowers.
