^Cherry picks one day weather in one month in individual US states. Disregards national and worldwide trends.On today's edition of what you won't read in the press, 36 states set their βall-timeβ πππ΄πππ high temperature records prior to 1965. Of those, 34 were logged before 1955.
Eight states set their August high temperature records in 1936 alone, the most for a single year. This is closely followed by seven in 1918 and then four each in 1930 and 1983.
No terrifying βclimate crisisβ in this dataset.
Even though I put it in π―πΌπΉπ± πΉπ²πππ²πΏπ that this map only shows πππ΄πππ statewide high temperature records, I'm sure some poor soul with no reading comprehension skills will tell me I'm wrong, pointing out the βall-timeβ record for all months for π₯ state; βErrm, akchually.β
So, for the people in the back, this map shows πΌπ»πΉπ πππ΄πππ πΏπ²π°πΌπΏπ±π.
For more information on date(s) and location(s) that these records were set, you can find that posted on my blog here:
