Feel The Burn: 100% of US Warming due to FAKE DATA Ouch! Climate Central just ran this piece, which the Washington Post picked up on. They claimed the US was “overwhelmingly hot” in 2016, and temperatures have risen 1,5°F since the 19th century. The first problem with their analysis is that the US had very little hot weather in 2016. The percentage of hot days was below average, and ranked 80th since 1895. Only 4.4% of days were over 95°F, compared with the long term average of 4.9%. Climate Central is conflating mild temperatures with hot ones. They also claim US temperatures rose 1.5°F since the 19th century, which is what NOAA shows. The problem with the NOAA graph is that it is fake data. NOAA creates the warming trend by altering the data. The NOAA raw data shows no average temperature change over the past century ... NOAA is adjusting the data to match global warming theory. This is known as PBEM (Policy Based Evidence Making.) Lots of graphs and analysis and paper thin rationalizations from NOAA. And the link to the 1989 story in the NYT, wherein NOAA released a definitive report saying no change in average temperature or rainfall for the last century, is especially damning. Well done. Perhaps AGW will be as soon forgotten as BHO in another few weeks.
