Real Climate Science

This past summer had the fewest 100ºF readings of any summer in at least a century in the US.

Summers used to be much hotter in the US, and over the last century, 100ºF readings have dropped by 25%. The summer of 1936 had more than seven times as many 100ºF readings as 2013.

According to NOAA, 2012 was the most extreme year in US history – yet their data shows that it didn’t even rank in the top twenty for hot days. They consider mild winter days to be extreme, and then count each mild winter day as two extreme temperatures (minimum and maximum.)

In 1907, the US Weather Bureau explained NOAA’s actions :

Zero sea level rise is a sure sign that Antarctica and Greenland are collapsing.

Since CO2 hit 300 PPM at the turn of the 19th century, western Greenland temperatures show no correlation with CO2.

The long-term trend indicates that government climate science will be fact-free by the year 2015.

During this week in 1871, the worst forest fire in US history occurred. Fires driven by drought and hurricane force winds burned 2,000 square miles in a day or two – and killed more than 1,000 people around Lake Michigan and Lake Huron.
