Hottest June Ever (due to Global Warming Climate Change, of course)
[KDAF/AP hat tip to the Dallas Morning News] The summer of 2023 is behaving like a broken record about broken records.Nearly every major climate-tracking organization proclaimed June the hottest June ever. Then July 4 became the globe’s hottest day, albeit unofficially, according to the University of Maine’s Climate Reanalyzer. It was quickly overtaken by July 5 and July 6. Next came the hottest week, a tad more official, stamped into the books by the World Meteorological Organization and the Japanese Meteorological Agency. In the DFW are, the record for 42 hundred-degree days in a row was set in ... 1980. With a summer of extreme weather records dominating the news, meteorologists and scientists say records like these give a glimpse of the big picture: a warming planet caused by climate change. It’s a picture that comes in the vibrant reds and purples representing heat on daily weather maps online, in newspapers and on television.  In the past 30 days, nearly 5,000 heat and rainfall records have been broken or tied in the U.S. and more than 10,000 records set globally, according to NOAA. Texas cities and towns alone have set 369 daily high temperature records since June 1. Since 2000, the U.S. has set about twice as many records for heat as those for cold.There ya go! Proof of climate change. Unless the records before 2000 might indicate otherwise. The larger the geographic area and the longer stretch of time during which records are set, the more likely the conditions represent climate change rather than daily weather. So the hottest global June is "extremely unlikely" to happen without climate change, as opposed to one city’s daily record, Texas state climatologist John Nielsen-Gammon said. Yeah, and don't forget about Greenland's ice melting 400,000 years before (man-made) climate change! Posted by: Bobby 2023-07-23 |
