I begin my explorations of the global temperature record in 1878.
Disrupting the Borg is expensive and time consuming!

Thank you for the info re temperatures in S/E Australia in the late 19th Century. The current temperature record for Australia shown on the BOM website starts at 1910 at a low value and slopes upward; what else? It is part of a monstrous lie on the part of the BOM, which says that temperatures recorded before 1910 were from thermometers which were ‘not properly shaded’. The British modified-standard Stevenson Screen would have been in use here in the late 19th century, as is was in Canada. We are led to believe that ‘old’ data is worthless, but these were pioneering times in Australia and the people then would have been most scrupulous in their attention to recording temperature and rainfall measurements.
1878
Lake Minnetonka is a Lake about 15 Miles West Of Minneapolis, Minnesota
“Ice Out ” Records have been kept on the Lake since 1855.
I Fish the lake most days in the summer.
Skating and Ice Boating in the Winter.
1878 is the Earliest Ice out year on Record, March 11th.

December 1876 to January 1877 is a really good weather analogue for Jan-Feb 2014, a very cold northeast US, and very wet, mild, and stormy in the UK. There would have been a northeast Pacific ‘warm blob’ 1876-77, also driving drought in California, which then turned to floods with the 1878 Super El Nino rains, and then massive southwest wildfires in 1879. From 2014 to the 2016 Super El Nino is a extra longer than 1877 to 1878, but the pattern completes with California rains late 2016 into early 2017 followed by large wildfires.
correction… a year longer than 1877 to 1878,
