Even back in 1894 they had at least 1 day at or above 100F. So much for global warming.

Unless I’m missing something, you just posted 134 years of weather history.. and 94 of them (over 70%) also had 0 days at or above 100F.

NOAA’s outlook for the 2025 Atlantic hurricane season, which goes from June 1 to November 30, predicts a 30% chance of a near-normal season, a 60% chance of an above-normal season, and a 10% chance of a below-normal season.

The agency is forecasting a range of 13 to 19 total named storms (winds of 39 mph or higher). Of those, 6-10 are forecast to become hurricanes (winds of 74 mph or higher), including 3-5 major hurricanes (category 3, 4 or 5; with winds of 111 mph or higher). NOAA has a 70% confidence in these ranges.

“NOAA and the National Weather Service are using the most advanced weather models and cutting-edge hurricane tracking systems to provide Americans with real-time storm forecasts and warnings,” said Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick. “With these models and forecasting tools, we have never been more prepared for hurricane season.”


Seriously though, have they EVER not predicted a higher than normal season?

Yeah but as of right now there isn’t a true cold front in sight. It might be Halloween before we see 59 degrees in the morning even

Exactly my point. We are at more average than above. Even 1921 had 28 days of at 100 or above.

Summer 2023 was miserable. I genuinely hope we never see heat like that again.

This summer has been great (relatively speaking). Yes, we had some blazing hot afternoons, as we should; but for the most part, the mornings and evenings have not been miserable.

Remember all the assholes on here a couple of years ago trying to claim that everyone was just being a bunch of bitches and the summer was “normal”?

Moved out of a house on July 10, 2023 and into a new one on July 17. Hole. E. Chit. It was hot.



Also moved in July of 2023. Had to move stuff into a non-air conditioned metal storage unit in July, then move everything again because the next house wasn’t available until early August. Had to be 150 in the storage unit, stepping outside in 120 degrees felt cool. Absolutely miserable.

The average global temperature has gone up at an increased rate starting around the late 19th century. Average means that not every year will be hotter than the last, just that things are trending one way. When working with big data sets, it’s always simple to skew things how you want them to look.

But you don’t need to go out of your way to prove me wrong, it’ll bear out if I am or it won’t.

ETA: Also, I’m no expert, but I thought our damp climate tended to keep things below 100 degrees. 2023’s dryness was a big reason so many days were above.

Interesting analysis…..makes you realize just how bad 2023 was. Still cutting trees in my area from 2023.

Son runs cross country and was running about 40 miles a week in that summer heat. I was so worried about him.
