Joe D’Aleo posted, on his website Ice Cap, “Heat has been declining for decades despite government reports”. D’Aleo uses temperature data collected in the USA from 1895 to 2017 to show that the US has cooled. Yes, the data is just for the US and not the globe. But the US has no rival for the most measuring stations, and quality of the raw data and except for the UK, the longest record. One has to wonder why the rest of the globe would be warming if the US is not.
From D’Aleo’s posting:
“The trend towards heat in the real world is clearly DOWN not up. The number of state all time record highs peaked in the 1930s (23 states), 38 occurred before 1960. The number of days exceeding 100, 95 and 90 degrees in 1200 US stations have declined since the 1930s”
“The headlines from the mainstream media and Soros funded alarmist science organizations want you to believe heat is increasing and has become or will soon become deadly”.
“I asked Tony Heller to plot the number of 90, 95 and 100F days for the nation’s USHCN stations year to date. He did it for January through July.”
Tony Heller provided three charts for D’Aleo, all labeled
January-July Percent of Days Above (90; 95; 100F) VS year 1895 -2017 At All US Historical Climatology Monitoring Station
The chart below is for days ABOVE 90°F
The chart below is for days above 95°F
The Chart below is for days above 100°F
“We may not be able to beat out 1904 but it appears we will rank among the least hot summers. The claims of increasing heat is shown to be not supportable by real world data. These data plots support the GAST research report findings recently published”.
“Appallingly in the NCA report, they can’t find evidence that all the claims they have made about the future are really happening so they invent a pathway to claim success. This problem is solved by a technique they call ”attribution without detection”. In other words “don’t believe your lying eyes, trust us”. An example would be saying that an increase in the probability or magnitude of a heat wave in the southeastern U.S. or Texas or drought in Texas or California was caused by GHG emissions when there’s been no upward trend in temperatures or droughts detected in those regions”.

The graphs were so blurry that I could not read the titles. We know that the 30s were hot in the US and we know that the ratio of record highs to record lows has been high for decades.
BillD I just reposted the blog with improved charts. Hope these work better for you.
