No Global Warming?

[TheMastersNemesis]

If you look at the temp map of the Us it is amazing to see all the 90+ and 100+ temps. One small town in Kansas got to 115. That is hotter than Phoenix. It looks like a record summer just about everywhere and it is not even July yet.

Any bets that it will get to 120 somewhere in the US. What about 125? The results of global warming may come much quicker than anyone thinks.

I remember the Bell telephone science series in the 1950's and they had a special on weather where they talked about the prospect of global warming even then.

1. Pardon my selfishness but all I want is this summer and next without...

...a monster heat wave in Las Vegas. After that I'm hoping my wife and I will be in Portland, OR or similar, where it rarely hits triple digits and there's actual snow in the winter.

2. Have you seen this OP?

Exxon Mobil CEO: "Global warming's real but you'll learn to live with it."

I ran into it earlier and found it shocking, unless someone is pulling my leg. If it's true it should be all over front pages. But I'm the only one who has posted in the thread so far. It is well worth reading, imo.
