This is just a fluke or statistical noise. I posted the September 2017 temperatures because nothing climate change related as you're trying to imply would happen in TWO YEARS to make Baton Rouge go from plenty of 50s and 60s to all 70s. It's a fluke pattern we're stuck in that has no impact on how cold it will be this winter.

I enjoy statistical anomalies, especially when they concern weather.

I'm just pointing out what is one hell of a statistically anomaly.
I think last year was the first time since 1930 where we didn't reach the 60s in September, and now it's likely to happen again.

Glad you went with such a neutral respected source like the Competitive Enterprise Institute

Also, who in there right mind thinks that their personal observations on the temperature for one particular month is indicative of a shift in the global climate.

Global warming is real


Well, the climate does change, year-over-year, decade-over-decade, century-over-century, so that's true. Sometimes it warms. Sometimes it cools. However, for most of the time since the Little Ice Age, the planet's climate has been staggeringly stable, thus allowing for a significant flourishing of mankind and a huge population explosion (also helped by advances in agriculture, transportation and medicine, among other technologies).

Ouch. That one hurts. In all honesty, it is the low IQ people who believe human activity can significantly alter the "climate" negligently when we don't even have the capacity to do it intentionally.

Now, can we/are we polluting the planet? Certainly. Heavy metals, radioactive material, just garbage everywhere (particularly the developing world, most of Asia, Africa, South America, etc.)

But, carbon dioxide is NOT a pollutant. It is a trace atmospheric gas REQUIRED for life as we know it to exist on this planet. If anything, a little too little CO2 would be a much bigger problem than a little too much.

OP is dumb.

Halloween is always the breaking point for good weather. You can expect October to be decently hot until towards the end of the month. And even then, you can still have a hot spell.

You’re talking about a city that’s in the mid 70s during Christmas Day.

Good god.... why....

Cold is miserable. There’s a reason why seasonal depression tends to come about in the winter and not summer.

It's been hot as a whore in church in Louisville. Not a drop of rain in @ 3.5 weeks or more, and even though it looks to be easing up a few days next week it jumps up again, so this is definitely an a-typical September.

You go on to talk about nothing I've mentioned. I never said anything about expecting good weather. I've simply stated that to be this hot for this long is very rare, but has now happened two years in a row.

If about 13 degrees above average, yes.
