On May 8, 1934 temperatures reached 105 degrees at Fort Yates, ND, Gann Valley, SD and Aberdeen, SD. Most of South Dakota was over 100 degrees.
Nearly one fourth of US stations were over 90 degrees that day. Compare vs. 2013, when no US stations reached 90 degrees on May 8. The last two years (NASA’s two hottest years ever) were both near record lows too. The six hottest May 8ths occurred in 1934, 1895, 1916, 1952, 1962 and 1918 – all below 320 PPM CO2.

During the three days from May 7 to May 9, 1934 ninety and one hundred degree temperatures were widespread across much of the US.
Hot May temperatures were common when CO2 was below 320 PPM, but they rarely happen any more. Recent years have had record low numbers of hot May days.
The professional fraudsters at the Union of Concerned Scientists Communists, say higher spring temperatures are increasing fire risks.

But the US Forest Service says fires are down 80% over the past 80 years.

If we had a repeat of 1934, scientists would say they were more than 99% certain that it was caused by global warming, and that immediate “action” is required.
As with essentially everything else in climate science, the claims of increased springtime heat and fires are the exact opposite of what the data shows. The people behind this scam are criminals, not scientists. Politicians who pander to the scam need to be called out and removed from office. The multi-billion dollar global warming scam can’t exist without funding from politicians.
