No matter how many times Heidi Cullen gets called out for her blatant attempts to deceive the American people about climate, she returns with more fraud. Like this claim that US summers are getting hotter.

Before data tampering, NOAA data shows that US summer temperatures have plummeted over the past century, and that Heidi Cullen cherry picked her 1970 start date to create a fake warming trend.

But this story gets much worse. Heidi is using massively tampered USHCN adjusted temperatures to create her fake warming trend since 1970. The raw data shows no warming since 1970.

Even the adjusted data shows cooling from 1930 to 1990. Heidi’s cherry picking fraud is quite spectacular.

And the crooks at NOAA adjust 1970 summer maximum temperatures downwards by three degrees relative recent temperatures.

Her scam depends on using massively tampered data with a cherry picked start date. Ten years ago, Heidi Cullen called for decertification of meteorologists who refused to go along with her fraud.

June 18 temperatures have plummeted in the US over the past 80 years. Prior to 1960, June 18 was typically a very hot day in the US, with the five hottest years being 1933, 1910, 1936, 1952 and 1944.

On this date in 1933, 90 degree temperatures were widespread across the US, with much of the Dakotas and Minnesota over 100 degrees. It was 110 degrees at Fort Yates, ND on June 18, 1933. Today’s forecast high at Fort Yates is 31 degrees cooler.

Prior to 1960, June 17 was typically a very hot day in the US. But since 1960, June 17 has been much cooler than the first half of the 20th century.

The ten hottest June 17th’s in the US were 1936, 1952, 1913, 1921, 1944, 1918, 1957, 1933, 1994 and 1897. All but one were below 350 PPM CO2. Prior to 1960, an average of 26% of stations were over 90F on June 17. Since 1960, that number has dropped to 20%.

The summer of 1936 was the hottest on record. On June 17, 1936 there were 90 degree temperatures in almost every state, and a huge swath of the country was over 100 degrees.

June 17, 1936 was the beginning of an incredible heatwave which lasted through the end of September. It was 105F at Seymour, Indiana that day.

Seymour had eighty-six days over 90 degrees in 1936- but now they average fewer than fifteen 90 degree days per year. The frequency of 90 degree days has plummeted over the last 80 years.

This week in 1988, James Hansen appeared before Congress, announced the “beginning of the greenhouse effect” and said his computer model predicted an increase in heatwaves and drought in the Midwest. He said he was 99% certain.

Since Hansen made that forecast, both heatwaves and drought have nearly disappeared from the Midwest.

Some scientists were taken in by Hansen’s BS in 1988 – but many recognized that his computer models were not actual science.

James Hansen is the leader of the global warming movement, and he has absolutely no clue what he is talking about. The climate has done the exact opposite of what he predicted.

The global warming scam persists decade after decade, despite all evidence to the contrary. Hansen’s temperature data was fake, and Gavin Schmidt has made it even faker.

The western US had multi-century droughts with CO2 below 290 PPM, which led to cannibalism and war. Climate experts hope to take us back to that stable climate.

I’m flying into Detroit, where the temperature is a cool 75 degrees. But June 16 wasn’t always a cool day in the US. In 1913, temperatures were over 100 degrees in parts of Michigan, and almost the entire eastern half of the US was over 90 degrees.

On this date in 1952, the extent of the heat was similar but a lot more 100 degree temperatures.

June 16 used to be a hot day in the US prior to 1960, but temperatures over the last 55 years have been much cooler.

10-Day Temperature Outlook

By the time this cold spell ends, the sun will be past its peak elevation in the Northern Hemisphere and will be sliding back towards the long Arctic winter.

The big lie doesn’t depend on facts however. All it requires is useful idiots in the press corps.
