It's definitely not the hottest day in history. Even in human history.Ag87H2O said:So this goes back what - 150 or 200 years? There is no way anyone can make a definitive statement like that which implies it's the hottest day in history.fc2112 said:
Monday, July 3, was the hottest day ever recorded globally, according to data from the U.S. National Centers for Environmental Prediction.
The average global temperature reached 17.01 degrees Celsius (62.62 Fahrenheit), surpassing the August 2016 record of 16.92C (62.46F) as heatwaves sizzled around the world.

On top of that, were talking about .16 degrees over the last supposed hottest day. Big deal. Not sure we can reliably measure to that level of precision anyway, especially over the entire planet.
The inflammatory rhetoric is so tired and overblown. I've been hearing that nonsense since the 1970s, yet here we all are doing just fine. Even if you were to buy into the climate change drivel, it's not like people can't adapt and continue right on living.
It's all alarmist crisis mongering geared to scare the weak minded into compliance with the left's goal to control everyone and everything.
Depending on where you are in Texas, Cloudcroft and Alto, New Mexico are not that far away.jja79 said:
As opposed to Texas getting to a cooler mountain climate here in Arizona is a relatively short drive. Mt. Lemon, Prescott, Flagstaff, Show Low, etc are within a couple of hours.

It's funny to see the "Hottest Day Ever" headlines. When you say hottest day ever, you are talking about the hottest day ever recorded. When you are only talking about recorded days, you are talking about, at best, 100 years? If that's the case you are talking about 100 years of a planet that is 4.5 billion years old.

Peru will declare emergency status in the area around the Ubinas volcano in the southern region of Moquegua, the prime minister said on Monday, as the country's most active volcano has been spewing ash for several days.

i had a work trip there a few years back. 50s and 60s in the morning. a late morning shower during "monsoon" season, and then highs in the 80s and cool nights.Brittmoore Car Club said:Flagstaff is great in the summer.eric76 said:Tucson would be better than Phoenix, I think. Plus, you could go up in the mountain (Mt Lemmon or something like that) to escape the heat.jja79 said:The Chicken Ranch said:
Sounds to me like it is easily fixed with higher taxes, equity and masks.
It was 117 degrees here in Phoenix Monday. I don't believe I can afford the higher taxes on that.
Flagstaff would be much nicer in the summer, though.
You are in golf Mecca. I am extremely jealous. All kinds of cool courses within 1-2 hours of you. And obviously tons within 20-30 min.jja79 said:

I doubt it can go back 150 years. Global temperature must necessarily be taken at specific points, either through ground based thermometers or satellite infrared(?) readings. If land based, any roads or large structures built near by will affect the readings, sometimes a lot.Ag87H2O said:So this goes back what - 150 or 200 years?

They don't know anything but their marching orders are to frighten the public and push dire predictions

Exactly. None of the MSM or any of these climate shysters ever notes that though because it would completely nullify any argument they make.cb1919 said:

This is the key question, and no climate change advocate can answer it -- it's just we cannot increase by 1C!halfastros81 said:
I suspect an audit of where the temperatures are recorded and a review of the calculations would not go all that well. I have little doubt the placement of the thermometers and changes made to the placement over the years has been designed to get the desired answer .
Beyond that tho, what is the optimal earth temperature?

Nearly every province in Canada has fires burning. A record 30,000 square miles (80,000 square kilometers) have burned, an area nearly as large as South Carolina, according to the Canadian government.

Someone tell me what year is the "ideal" climate year, so I know whether to be concerned about warming or cooling. Thanks in advance.
