More heat records were set around the globe last month, including Earth's hottest August.

May, June and August all set global heat records this year, according to meteorologists from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). Meteorologists said Thursday that the average world temperature in August was 61.36 degrees Fahrenheit (16.35 degrees Celsius), breaking a record set in 1998.

August was especially hot in the Pacific and Indian oceans and Africa, but cooler in parts of the United States, Europe and Australia. NOAA records go back to 1880. The first three-quarters of 2014 are the third warmest on record. NOAA climate scientist Jake Crouch said there's a good chance that 2014 will end up as the hottest year ever. Nine of the 10 warmest Augusts on record have occurred since the year 2000. The world's oceans also set an all-time heat record for surface temperature last month, with August narrowly edging out the previous record set in June.

So it was hotter on the water where humans don't live and colder on land where they do live...

thats because due to global warming the trade winds are blowing harder and carrying the heat to the oceans at a higher level

2 questions... Honest questions

quote:

1) What about the other months? Were the other months consistently higher or were they lower than average? Just wondering if it was consistent amongst all months or just Aug


2) If this is all record breaking heat, why is there more arctic ice than ever? Is it the "hot" places are getting hotter and the "cold" places are getting colder

I shouldn't ASSuME !

I figured it was one of the usual suspects whose answer was to tax the shite out of the common man in the name of the cause.

My seranno peppers are doing great because our summer has been so cool. Normally, they would be dried out by Sept. Got a lot of pine straw falling down. The trees are expecting a cold winter...got about 200 on my property. Gonna try to put as much as I can into the compost pile for next Spring's garden.

The only thing I hate about Fall is that Zach cannot lay out and sunbathe.

It was cooler in every place where there is a majority of white people. Global warming is obviously racist

The messaging from the deniers is moving away from outright denial to bitching about taxes and asking inane questions.

The juxtaposition of these two questions is really funny.

Hint: Exactly one (1) month this year has featured more arctic ice than last year. Guess which one.

I am not a denier. I believe we do have an impact on the planet and should do everything reasonable and effective to limit our impact, but the left's solutions are not reasonable and as I have pointed out NOT EFFECTIVE!

I am also skeptical of "scientist" that keep reviving their numbers because observed results do not meet predicted and we are suppose to believe them this time.
