Arctic sea ice volume is fourth highest for the date since 2003, and is about to pass 2003. There are only a few weeks left until the end of the melt season.

Melt rates have been very slow in recent years.

Meanwhile, the usual batch of criminals and liars in the press and scientific community report the exact opposite.

July 4th afternoon temperatures have been declining in the US since the 19th century.  The hottest July 4th occurred in 1911, and the coolest occurred in 1915, back when James Hansen said the climate was stable.

On July 4th, 1911 there were 100 degree temperatures from California to Maine.

On July 4th, 1936 the heat wasn’t as widespread, but there was a large area of 110 degree temperatures in the Great Plains.

With only 30 days left to the Greenland melt season, it hasn’t started yet. Yet another catastrophe for climate alarmists.

Greenland Ice Sheet Surface Mass Budget: DMI

This is the second year in a row which there has been a large increase in ice.

Last year, DMI scientists tried blaming it on Hurricane Nicole, but there wasn’t any hurricane this year. Sea surface temperatures around Greenland are running very cold.

This is the hottest week of the year on the ice sheet, and temperatures are well below freezing.

As Greenland gains mass, climate scientists and the press ramp up their lies to rather spectacular levels – claiming the exact opposite of what is occurring.

Finally, an illustration which accurately depicts the state of climate science.

With the arrival of summer, climate snake oil salesmen are up to their usual tactics of lying about the weather. Summer maximum temperatures and the frequency of hot days have plummeted in the US over the past century.

After accepting this, climate fraudsters complain that the US is only 2% of the planet – but it is the only large region of earth where you can do this sort of analysis. Data from the rest of the world is generally close to useless.

During the week of July 3 to July 10, 1936 – afternoon temperatures at Cottonwood, South Dakota averaged a mind boggling 111 degrees, topping out at 117 degrees on July 5, 1936.

July 3rd afternoon temperatures have been declining in the US since the 19th century, and likelihood of hot weather has declined.

On this date in 1911, almost 30% of the US was over 100F – with one hundred degree temperatures stretching from California to Maine. Missouri had temperatures over 110 degrees, Iowa 109 degrees, and New York 104 degrees.

Drudge is reporting “record hot temperatures” in June, when in fact there were almost none. Almost all US record June daily maximum temperatures were set prior to 1989, with CO2 below 350 PPM.  The peak years were 1933, 1911, 1988 and 1936, with 2018 near the bottom.

June was not a hot month in the US, with maximum temperatures and the frequency and areal coverage of hot weather all  declining over the past 100 years.

The amazing thing about climate science, is that most climate scientists don’t know anything about the past climate, the present climate, or the future climate of the US.  And then Drudge parrots their BS.
