Fraudsters At Work At NCAR

According to the fraudsters at NCAR:
If temperatures were not warming, the number of record daily highs and lows being set each year would be approximately even. Instead, for the period from January 1, 2000, to September 30, 2009, the continental United States set 291,237 record highs and 142,420 record lows, as the country experienced unusually mild winter weather and intense summer heat waves.
A record daily high means that temperatures were warmer on a given day than on that same date throughout a weather station’s history [ie ties are included]. The authors used a quality control process to ensure the reliability of data from thousands of weather stations across the country, while looking at data over the past six decades to capture longer-term trends.
It is easy to see why they start their chart from 1950!
All across the country we find the same pattern with the majority of record highs set prior to 1950. Remember that ties are included, so the probability of a record high is the same statistically in each decade.
According to the NCAR article:
The study team focused on weather stations that have been operating since 1950. They found that the ratio of record daily high to record daily low temperatures slightly exceeded one to one in the 1950s, dipped below that level in the 1960s and 1970s, and has risen since the 1980s. The results reflect changes in U.S. average temperatures, which rose in the 1950s, stabilized in the 1960s, and then began a warming trend in the late 1970s.
I think we can glean from this that average temperatures were therefore much higher in the 1930’s!

Warmist logic backfires with some simple fact checking.
Somewhat similar patterns in Canada regarding when record highs happened.

However, we should note that with many stations in urban areas that are increasing in size, record lows are become harder to come by. One of the main effects of the UHI is that night time temperatures don’t drop as far as they would without it. Obviously record lows still happen but they would be more common and more extreme without UHI.

Some of us were born before 1950. The temperatures back then are personal.
Kevin E. Trenberth, born Nov. 8, 1944, is almost as old as I am. One might think he would notice. However, he did not leave NZ until 1968 so maybe his brain is still up-side-down.
