Last year, NOAA declared May to be the hottest ever.
Contiguous U.S. had its warmest May on record | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
Their claim isn’t true – May 1934 was much hotter.
The frequency of hot days last May wasn’t in the top ten.
This claim from NOAA was particularly misleading.
During May, 1934 Minnesota had eleven days over 100F, starting on May 8, and peaking at 108F on May 31.
May 1934 was much hotter in Minnesota

The record heat of 1934 wasn’t convenient for NOAA and NASA – so they simply erased it.
This May is starting out with record cold and snow.
Here in Boulder, today was the first May 9th not to reach 40 degrees. The previous coldest May 9th was 45 degrees in 1917. We had our 28th snow of the year today, and the fourth snow day this month.
But facts don’t matter to climate alarmists. All they need is a good appeal to authority to shut their brain down.
Curious of the record 1934 and 1935.
Same pattern as today.
Warm and cool years following each other.
May 1935 brought world’s record rainfall to Texas and Colorado.
Natural variability seems to be quite large and hot years follow cold years and vice versa. Apparent stability only results from averaging. The same is true for precipitation and how it manifests as drought, flooding, etc.
Gaia is pregnant with all kind of possibilities.
Here’s a map showing average temps and % of precip in May 1935. Quite a bit cooler to be sure.
Hottest May Ever!

Champions League has now become completely British.
This repeating pattern by the alarmists can no longer be attributed to error, leaving nothing but clear and blatant lying for all the world to see.
Here’s a map comparing May 1934 and 2018 avg temps. 1934 hands down was much hotter.
OT: This relates to the general topic of hysteria, but not climate hysteria. Click on the newspaper article shown above to enlarge it.
Now read the article titled “Crazed Man in Dynamite Car has Police Stumped”. Take a look at how men handled things in my grandfather’s generation.
According to a June 14 article, after 24 hours, they were able to take him to jail but Bennett was refusing to eat. I wonder what eventually happened.
So let’s see… M@nn-Made CO2 traps heat; and it gets cold. Hmmm
Not too happy to see my tax money being spent at NASA and NOAA repeatedly puting out climate change propaganda to brainwash the masses. It is like a broken record. Dr. Goebbels would be so proud.
97% of the US is now drought free (D0 or better).
Almost a consensus that hottest ever weather leads to no more droughts. Why is this a bad thing?
