NOAA and NASA say UHI isn’t important. Compare these two stations in Louisiana 50 miles apart.
Urban
Rural
The frequency of hot days at the rural station has plummeted, while they have skyrocketed at the urban station. And then we get a double fraud through homogenization.
Good post…

It’s interesting the difference between the different arms of the UK’s Met Office. On the one hand the CAGW Modellers virtually ignore UHI, on the other the BBC forecasts (still provided by the MO) in winter will say several degrees cooler in rural areas, and in summer a few degrees warmer in urban areas. Notice not one or two degrees but several. Bizarre
