2011 Nearly a degree cooler than 1999 in the US « Reasonable Doubt on Climate Change

Despite claims that it continues to get warmer and warmer, this table from NOAA/NCDC indicates that 2011 was in the middle of the pack, going all the way back to 1980 (the start of the “global warming era”). Such remote years as 1981, 1986, 1987, and 1990 were hotter.

Southern US was hotter in 1921 Than 2011 « Reasonable Doubt on Climate Change

All summer long global warming alarmists kept harping on the hot, dry Texas summer as evidence that climate change is happening now.
