What’s next? A weather report from Nizhneyansk, Siberia?

Exactly. N=1 does not equate to a statistically valid observation.

I wonder if 310 believes racism is real, he should because a black man got shot somewhere
I wonder if he thinks the economy is bad under trump? He should, the dow was down 300 yesterday
I wonder if he thinks America under Trump is hated around the world? He should, because a British Politician said so.


I'm not saying racism is not real, that the economy does not have problems, or that the US reputation is not being damaged under Trump (I'm not saying anything about those). I am saying you can't draw conclusions about trends based on a single data point. It's silly.

I gave the examples above because he defended his observation due to "double standards", to illustrate how silly it is.

More heat sinks (concrete, buildings, etc.) means warmer temperatures in the surrounding areas.

Oddly enough, that's where most weather stations are located (universities, airports, and the like).

I don't know your source for this, but most that I am personally familiar with are located away from cities at research facilities and airports and such.

Could you source it, please?

But, I have a question. What happens if we get one hotter than normal day ? Does that offset this theory ? Which one do I believe ?

Fair question, but does a heat wave in Western Europe (offset by cold in Russia) and in Alaska prove anything either?

But a single data point can operate as a reality check.

"First order stations are those maintained professional by the NWS or the Federal Aviation Administration. In Alaska, there are 21 first order sites,
......all of which are located at airports..... except for the station in Valdez"



Observing Stations - NOAA / NWS

90 degrees in Alaska is the new normal, temperatures are expected to increase....it's Armageddon we're all going to die global warming...even though it's centered on a high pressure dome...that's just weather

105 years ago...when the temperature was 10 degrees hotter....a month sooner......was just weather

"Alaska's highest temp was 100F....June 27, 1915...a month sooner....and over 100 years ago"

It's a ridiculous concept and it's a political one. The Earth is cooling, not warming. That is a fact. What is happening is temporary. It's cooling, always cooling.

2 million years ago it was warmer even with the ice ages that happened in the northern hemisphere.

Actually we are coming out of a little ice age. But on an the time frame of a qazillion years? Yeah, the earth is cooling, the sun is cooling....

But that is not the issue, and not a point in the the discussion.

Little more concerned with the near terms changes.

But that’s just weather according to warmers.

Your use of inductive reasoning here does not lead to a logical scientific conclusion.
