US temperature measurements show 1934 as the hottest year and 1931, 1934, 1938, and 1939 as among the ten hottest years of the past century. Yet according to the University of East Anglia's temperatures, 1934 and the 1930's were not very warm at all for the world as a whole. Something is clearly amiss. You can claim the 1930's warming only happened in the US and was offset by cooling elsewhere in the world. Or one can suspect that something is wrong with temperature measurements elsewhere. It is a fact that the US has the longest and most extensive record of temperature measurements. Even in the US there is a suspected problem involving the urban heat island effect. Considering that many temperature stations in the thirld world are recent and most are in urban areas, its most likely the urban heat island effect is a much bigger problem with non-US temperature measurements.

Do you think there is a problem with world temperature measurments?
