Prior to the post 1999 tampering, the GISS US temperature graph looked like this :
NASA GISS: Science Briefs: Whither U.S. Climate?
This exactly mirrors the graph of USHCN record highs.

The old versions of GISS were correct, before the data was altered. The 1930s were much hotter. People who rewrite history are criminals.
All time daily record highs year count 1936 10011 1934 9704 1939 7743 1931 7424 1930 6862 1933 6808 1953 6589 1925 6567 1954 6338 1911 6206
Claims that we are seeing record numbers of record highs are completely false. People making them are either incompetent or dishonest.
The claims being made that they “predicted the US heatwave” based on climate science are complete BS. The models didn’t predict it, and the heatwave only covered about 1% of the planet

How do they attribute the heatwave to global warming, if they don’t even understand what caused it?
Our friends were very excited to declare a 1930s repeat (10 year drought) after a few weeks of dry weather, but they just can’t deliver the human misery which they long for so badly.
And the calculations suggest that the rise could conceivably exceed six feet, which would put thousands of square miles of the American coastline under water and would probably displace tens of millions of people in Asia.

My calculations suggest that scientists are making a ton of money lying about sea level.

Al Gore should also abandon all of his soon to be drowned seashore residences which he has been able to purchase as a result of profits made from his scaremongering.
He would design it to last for 30 years under three different scenarios, but it would fall down when the first car drove over it.
Then he would blame Chinese aerosols and multi-metre sea level rise for the horrific math error he made – and tell everyone that it is worse than it seems, and that Obama has four years to save the planet (starting in 2009.)

This is classic. The reporter has information which should be allow him to understand, but he is conditioned to do nothing but drool.
Heavier than expected ice in Arctic waters off Alaska will likely delay until August Shell’s long-anticipated exploration drilling in the Chukchi and Beaufort Seas, a company spokesman said on Friday. Shell, which wants to search for oil in what are considered remote but promising frontiers, had planned to start the wells this month, said Curtis Smith, a company spokesman in Anchorage.
Sea ice is “the number one reason we won’t be drilling in July,” Smith told Reuters. “At this point, we’re looking at the first week of August.” While sea ice cover is sparse in most of the Arctic, ice off Alaska is thicker than in recent years, and that ice is melting fast, according to the US National Snow and Ice Data Centre.
Obviously the ice is not melting fast. That is why the drilling is delayed until near the end of the melt season. As far as the sparse ice cover in most of the Arctic goes, what is he talking about? The Arctic is covered with ice from one end to the other.
In the private sector, we engineers and scientists have to be right. People’s lives depend on it. I am doing a lot of avionics and defense work these days which has to be perfect – or people will die. Companies will certainly die if the product is flawed.
The problem with academic researchers who have never worked in product R&D, is that they have no grounding in reality. Some believe that they can spew any BS which suits their imagined needs, and imagine that it is good enough. They have never felt the consequences of error, and have no concept of how much damage they are doing with their lies and hallucinations.
These same people depend on others (whom they imagine are evil) to keep the lights on and food coming to the store – yet they do everything they can to undermine them. I feel sorry for people who are so completely useless and self-destructive.
Get a real job, hippies. Grow up. Stop acting like scared pre-teenage girls. If you keep up your lies, your children will suffer the consequences of your actions. At some point you will succeed in destroying the infrastructure which society depends on.
Trying to get beyond the standard scientific disclaimer that no single weather event can be pinned on global warming, government scientists on Tuesday unveiled a new framework: what are the odds of a specific event being impacted by warming?
They tested it on several extreme events in 2011 — a strong La Nina year — and, in the case of the record Texas drought, concluded that such severe dry spells are 20 more times likely during a La Nina year today than a La Nina in the 1960s, before greenhouse gas emissions jumped.
“Conditions leading to droughts such as the one that occurred in Texas in 2011 are, at least in the case of temperature, distinctly more probable than they were 40-50 years ago,” researchers concluded in a new study.
“It’s quite striking,” Peter Stott told reporters Tuesday at a briefing organized by his employer, Britain’s weather service, and the U.S. National Climatic Data Center.

Peter is either wildly incompetent or dishonest. The severity of the droughts in Texas during the 1950s and 1960s was much worse than recent years. He didn’t bother to check the most fundamental facts before going to press.
