A Cool Summer in North America

The website Real Science shares with us the following fun factoid. Hat tip to Steven Hayward at Power Line for the link.

This summer, the US has experienced the fewest number of 100 degree readings in a century. The five hottest summers (1936, 1934, 1954, 1980 and 1930) all occurred with CO2 below 350 PPM.

CO2 went over 400 PPM this year, indicating that heatwaves and CO2 have nothing to do with each other. Scientists who claim otherwise are either incompetent, criminal, or both.

The fewest in a century! Al Gore has the worst luck. I have noted that the location of my winter home has had substantially fewer 100 degree days than is normal. Anybody for "global cooling?"
