Record Breaking 1931

“MINNEAPOLIS—(AP)—Minnesota in 1931 broke all yearly records for heat, producing the warmest weather in the records of the federal weather bureau here, which has been keeping yearly data for the state since 1886.

The mean temperature was 46.94 degrees as compared to the previous high of 44.4 degrees in 1921. The 1931 figure was 6.25 degrees above the normal. The lowest mean in the records was set in 1917 with a mean of 37.7 degrees.

January started the year off with the warmest first month in state history, the temperature being 20.8 degrees or 13 degrees warmer than the normal, while December topped the year off with the hottest month, with but a few exceptions. A mean of 24.9 degrees was set in December, or 10.4 degrees greater than the average.

Whereas temperatures were far above normal, moisture fell below average considerably, the fall for the year being 22.53 inches or 2.31 inches less than the average established by figuring yearly rainfalls since 1886.”

“1931 Warmest Year On Record Lincoln—Nebraska experienced, the warmest year in the history of weather records in 1931, the annual report of the government weather station issued recently showed.

And that means that Nebraska was warmest in 1931 of any year since 1876. The temperature for the year averaged 52.8 degrees, which was 4.0 degrees above the normal mark, The nearest approach to this’ record was just ten years ago, in 1921, when the temperature was 52.5 degrees.

January was the warmest first month-of-the-year in history. February was the second warmest February since 1876. March was cooler than normal, April above normal and May cooler than normal.

The last seven months of the year were warmer than normal, the report said. June and September were the hottest in history of the state. October was the fifth warmest October since 1876 and December was the eighth warmest December in the same period.”

Peer-Reviewed Science On Twitter

While academia is spending billions of dollars of taxpayer money doing worthless science based on superstitions about CO2 and fake government temperature graphs, there is some actual science being done on Twitter.

“In 2023, the 3-year frequency of global major hurricanes [simple counts] was the lowest on record!”

1980 – The Dawn Of Time

NOAA cleverly started their trend during the 1980’s pluvial, which was the wettest and snowiest decade for 500 years in much of the country.

“On this day in 1983, Review-Journal readers were treated to front-page news (with a large photo!) about the lake nearing capacity. In fact, the lake was so full that the Hoover Dam’s spillways were opened weeks earlier on July 3, creating a show for tourists. It was the first time the spillways had been opened since 1941. The dam opened in 1936.

The Bureau of Reclamation said the lake reached its highest elevation of 1,225.85 feet on July 24, 1983.”

Imaginary Record Heat

Imaginary Record Heat

The Democratic Republic of the Congo is the 11th largest country in the world.

NOAA frequently shows record heat there, despite not having any data.

The only station in the DRC which reported temperatures during November, 2023 was the airport at Kinshasha.

Data.GISS: GISS Surface Temperature Analysis (v4): Station Data

The other station which GISS shows on their map is incorrectly placed.  It is not in the DRC.

The one reporting station is located next to an airport runway in one of the world’s largest heat islands.

The GHCN V4 database has almost no data for the DRC outside of the Kinshasha airport, which is warming at a rate of almost 9F per century.

New York Times Recycling Old Glacier Stories

“As Switzerland’s Glaciers Shrink, a Way of Life May Melt Away
Rising temperatures and retreating glaciers threaten Europe’s water tower, forcing local farmers to adapt and presaging larger troubles downstream.”

As Switzerland’s Glaciers Shrink, a Way of Life May Melt Away – The New York Times

Here is the same story from 1930

“WORD comes from Switzerland that the Alpine glaciers are in full retreat. Out of 102 glaciers observed by Professor P. L. Mercanton of the University of Lausanne and his associates more than two- thirds have been found to be shrinking. Does this mean the approach of a warmer climate, such as swept over our globe thousands of years ago? Will palms, cypresses, magnolias, myrtles and olive trees thrive at the feet of the Adirondacks,  as they did in those distant days?”

TimesMachine: December 21, 1930 – NYTimes.com

Same story from 1907

“Remarkable shrinkages have been going on among the Swiss glaciers, especially in the last two or three years. According to measurements, the great Rhone glacier, one of the sights of Switzerland—at least, it used to be— has lost in the last two years no less than 88,250 square feet, and others have been shortened by anywhere from 20ft. to 40ft. Among 63 instances 53 recessions were discovered, one glacier remained stationary, and nine had slightly increased.”

GRAVE NEWS ABOUT GLACIERS.

Glaciers are part of the romance of mountains; the very name gives the thrill of the lonely and high and awful even to those who are not quite sure what a glacier may be. There is grave news about glaciers; they are disappearing, it would seem. Swiss peasants who are not yet quite all modernised enough to think toy railways in harmony with the eternal hills, declare that the tourists who go to see the glaciers are the cause of the ruin. Wherever the mountain cars run the glaciers flee. A Kandersteg correspondent of the “Morning Post” gives some dreary particulars. For many years past exact observations have been taken of the movements of glaciers in the Alps. The results of last year’s records have just been published, and show that all the glaciers in the Rhone district of Switzerland are in retreat, some of them to an extent which may almost be described as alarming. For example, the Arolla glacier has receded 85ft. in the past 12 months; the Aletsch, the longest in the Alps, 65 feet; the Gorner glacier, 58 feet; the Zinal, 51 feet; while the Turtmann glacier, in the Zermatt range, and the Zanfleuren or Sanetsch glacier have retreated nearly 46 feet each. Within the last ten years the Zigiornuovo glacier has shrunk by as much as 904 feet, the Zanfleuren by 718 feet, the Aletsch by 459 feet, the Zinal by 378 feet, and the Gorner by 190 feet. Others all showed more or less shrinkage. In the short space of four years, moreover, the small Mont Bonvin glacier, in the Wildstrubel range, Bernese Oberland, has entirely disappeared from sight. Another glacier, the Plaine Morte, in the same region of the Alps, has revented a little lake in the course of its receding. It is clear that if any Australian hasn’t seen a glacier yet, he had better take the next boat.”
