California breaks heat record since measurements began in 1895 But..................but..................but.............. According to your graph, the last 13 or 14 years have been cooler than 3 or 4 times in the 90's and cooler than most of the 1930's and1940's. So what is your point? That the high temperature right now is an abnormality and not a trend? Any educated person would agree with that, unless the person is a rabid partisan HYPOCRITE. (you do know how to decipher the chart that you posted, don't you?)

Ken is cherry picking again. If you drill down to the NOAA site you get this ncdc.noaa.gov The average temperature for the contiguous U.S. during summer (June-August) was 71.7°F, 0.3°F above the 20th century average. This was the coolest summer for the Lower-48 since 2009 and it ranked near the middle value in the 120-year period of record. The August national temperature was 72.2°F, 0.1°F above average. Read that again Ken, near the middle value in the 120 year period. Geesh, do we have to do all your reading for you? I couldn't find how they measure "California's" temperature, where are the measuring stations? Between the 101 and 405 freeways, or do they take measurements in Death Valley too?
