During the “heat wave” in July locally, it was 10 degrees warmer than normal for a week or so. Hot, but it’s July, imagine that. Media said we were all gonna die.
Last week, locally it was 10 degrees cooler than normal. Pretty pleasant, actually. Media? Crickets.
Meanwhile, Antarctica and the southern hemisphere is setting record lows for cold temps this year. How that can happen, and the media still claim that the temperature globally is setting record highs, is beyond me. Either the scientists don’t understand basic statistics, or they’re trusting that most of the public doesn’t.
Consider the source.
Based on only a .30° temp. difference from the most recent recorded high in 2016, but 1836 was probably higher. We have more data points they can manipulate now.
It’s official now— this year... NYC has NOT had a heat wave. By definition of all meteorologists— NOT had a heat wave.
It’s clowns like this wrtier who knows nothing of WEATHER, much less about what climate actually is, who perpetuate the restructuring of scientific meaning, and ignore the FACTS.
The world is cooling. Going to be an early very cold and very long winter... bozo fear porn pisser.
The recent heat is mostly due to an underwater volcanic eruption in 2022 which threw billions of tons of water vapor into the atmosphere. No CO2 involved.
“The world just got its first real taste of what life is like at 1.5 degrees Celsius”
Pretty damn chilly if you ask me. I think it comes out to 34F.
Paleozoic creatures are laughing from wherever in the great beyond they hang out.
“hotter than preindustrial times.”
Absolute flat out lie. It has been a lot hotter many times during previous interglacial periods. It was extremely hot before this last ice age.
Since we only have about 7.5 years remaining — depending on which town crier is doing the crying — why aren’t the leftists building thousands of launch pods so they can escape the impending disaster.
Maybe if they all moved off the planet, we wouldn’t have so many doomsday countdowns.
It was hotter in the 1930’s.... it’s called weather.
Nonsense.
Thermometers were not that widespread and accurate as they are today.
Plus putting them in city heat islands skews the results.
Give me global warming. I want lower heating costs and a longer growing season.
We had windows open at night in July this year in Indianapolis. Sorry WaPo go peddle you wares somewhere else. Yes, it was hot in Phoenix a town sitting in the middle of a desert covered with concrete and asphalt. According to maps on Bastardi’s site most of Europe, with the exception of the Mediterranean coast was cooler than normal in July. So where was this heat that caused this devastating 1.5-degree spike? One of my weather blogs twisted themselves in knots trying to explain how this terrible global heatwave was occuring without it being hot over most of the continental US. It was an interesting post to read. One of those don’t believe you lying eyes type.
How is 2.7 degrees Fahrenheit hot, Shannon?
I do not understand this hysteria about a hot summer. My experience on the east coast has been that has actually been a quite moderate summer. I have experience much hotter ones.
What was the temperature back when those fossil fuels were alive and well?
Weather facilities in asphalt covered lots and recording temperature at ground level to they get the results needed to sell this fraud to make millions.
Ok, so who had a thermometer in pre-industrial days?
Washington Post aka Washington Compost
The weather is being manipulated, wanna bet, to promote their crap Climate Change agenda!
Doubt that, look up all the weather modification patents. Loop up DARPA and HAARP.
