Twitter / billmckibben: 33,000 evacuated, 11 dead

How about ignorance and superstition levels which have never been achieved before?

July 1, 1938

Japan has passed through two days of floods, tornadoes and earthquakes, whilst the rainfall has been the heaviest in living memory.  The death roll is now over 100.

I had been under the mistaken impression that July, 1936 was the hottest month in US history, but the raw temperature data shows that July 1901 was hotter.

The three hottest July’s were 1901, 1936 and 1934

26 Jul 1901 – AMERICAN HEAT WAVE CONTINUES.

It wasn’t just the US.

22 Jul 1901 – THE EUROPEAN HEAT WAVE.

January temperatures plummeted by five degrees in the US between 1931 and 1979.

In order to make that inconvenient “ice age scare” of the 1970s go away, they had to make the 1930s disappear. Also note that satellite data is reported starting in 1979 – which was the second coldest January in US history, after 1977.

NCDC shows a warming trend for June in the US, which does not exist in the thermometer data. Prior to being tampered with, the four warmest Junes (by far) were 1933, 1934, 1911 and 1952.

CONTIGUOUS UNITED STATES Climate Summary

NCDC shows June, 2012 as the 15th warmest June – but the raw data will show it closer to 22nd warmest (I am estimating that because the raw data isn’t available yet.)

On July 13, 1936 – Mio, Michigan hit 112F, the hottest temperature ever recorded in Michigan. One person was dying nearly every minute from the heat.

Leading experts tell us that this could not have happened with CO2 below 350 ppm. CO2 was 310 ppm at the time, proving once again that many climate experts are incompetent buffoons.

15 Jul 1936 – Huge Toll of American Heat Wave RELIEF HOPES SHA…

Rep. Henry Waxman (D-Calif.), a top House Democrat, is urging the Energy and Commerce Committee’s Republican majority to hold a hearing that explores links between climate change and extreme weather.

The request, spelled out in a letter Friday, is a sign that Democrats and environmentalists hope to translate the recent record-setting heatwaves into political momentum for efforts to battle global warming.

It asks Committee Chairman Fred Upton (R-Mich.) to convene a hearing “on the recent wildfires and extreme weather events the United States has experienced and the role global climate change played in these events.”

Michelle Malkin » Democrat global warming blame-ologists demand Capitol Hill hearing

A heat wave over 1% of the planet must be due to global climate change. As far as the Colorado fires go, the graphic below shows what happened. Most of the Colorado Front Range received heavy rain during the first week of June. Two places didn’t (red circles below) and they got hit by fires later in the month.

No doubt those red circles were caused by global climate change.
