The Huntsville Times (Huntsville, Alabama) – 21 Jul 1936,

“Record Heat

There has been no heat wave in the history of this country that has been comparable, in the number of fatalities, to that which has burned and blistered more than a scores of states since July 1.

Yesterday, the number of those who has perished as a result of it passed the 4,500 mark.

Some of these include drownings.  But the very large majority of the deaths were due directly to    the insufferable heat, mostly in a period of 15 days, when temperatures of 110 and more were very common.”

During the summer of 2010 global warming was located in Moscow, but for a few hours today it is located in London.

Biden considers issuing climate emergency declaration, sources say – The Washington Post

Apparently Joe Biden isn’t satisfied with the record inflation he has created, and plans to declare a “climate emergency” so that he can further restrict the energy and food supply.

YouTube staff are still searching through videos from last year, apparently looking for excuses to ban me.

“YouTube does not allow content that …. contradicts local health authorities’ or the World Health Organization’s (WHO) medical information about COVID-19, including on methods to prevent, treat, or diagnose COVID-19 and means of transmission of COVID-19.”

The 1911 Heat Wave Was So Deadly It Drove People Insane – New England Historical Society

This date in 1934 was much hotter.

“The unprecedented heat wave which has brought temperatures in America’s granary to the level of Death Valley heat continued unabated in the southwest today,

Government weather observers found no change in atmospheric conditions indicating a break in heat and drouth which has turned vast areas of normally fertile fields into desert- like stretches.

The death toll from the temperatures, which reached 117 degrees in some areas, has exceeded 20 in Nebraska, Missouri, Kansas, Texas and Oklahoma the last few days. Nine succumbed within the last 24 hours, five in Nebraska, two in Missouri and one each in Texas and Oklahoma”

Temperatures over 110F used to be quite common in Oklahoma, but rarely happen any more.

According to the National Climate Assessment, heatwaves used to be much more severe in the US prior to 60 years ago.

If the Washington Post editorial staff had of bothered to go the National Park Service web site, they would have known that fire is normal and essential for Sequoias.

“The importance of fire to giant sequoias cannot be overstated. Other than the change of seasons, fire is the most recurrent and critical process in determining the life his­tory of this species. Tree-ring records from giant sequoias show that frequent surface fires were the typical pattern of fire occurrence over the past 2,000 years. But this pattern changed after about 1860, when fire frequency declined sharply. This decline in regional fire was probably a result of intensive sheep grazing that began about this time (reducing live and dead vegetation that carries ground fire beneath the trees) and a decrease in fires set by Native Americans, followed by fire suppression by government agencies.”
