We normally have 3 to 5 days of 100+ temperature before August, none this year. I know, that is weather not climate.

I wish I had the cave.
So do I; troglodytes such as yourself belong in caves.

Funny, how many "Ice Ages" have we had?

Post like this just show how much a position can be pushed. Lets see if the OP will answer my question...

Your friends aren't paying attention then....

The Alaska April temperature was record high at 33.3°F, 10.0°F above the 1925-2000 average and 0.4°F warmer than the previous record set in 1940. Record warmth was observed across the southern parts of the state with much-above-average temperatures for central and northern Alaska. Temperatures more than 12°F above average were observed across western parts of the state. Anchorage had its warmest April on record with a temperature of 43.5°F, 2.8°F warmer than the previous record set just last year. Parts of the Yukon River observed the earliest ice break up on record and Fairbanks observed a record-early 'green up', or start of the vegetation growing season. https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/sotc/national/201604

This has nothing to do with the current warming.

Those changes took place over millions and billions of years due to changes in the earths orbit, no one is arguing that it hasn't been both warmer and colder in the past. Do you think the earths orbit caused this increase in the last 100 years?


I don't understand how anyone can ignore the record setting temperatures posted by the OP but here we are with the usual answers.
