Watts Up With That<\/em> provides a humorous, but accurate, summation in Friday Funny: Josh on Mann-Made Warming<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

In the last couple of weeks, record highs have been set around the U.S., particularly in the Los Angeles area, which I did a lengthy debunking of<\/a>. Records were also set in Scotland, then denied by an errant Ice Cream truck<\/a>, and also questioned in Africa<\/a>. Josh is on the case to illustrate the one common denominator to all these high temperature records we\u2019ve discussed here on WUWT.<\/p>\n

For people who don\u2019t believe this, or think we are just \u201cmaking stuff up\u201d\u2026Here\u2019s the official weather station at the airport in Rome, Italy. I wonder if the Pope has seen this?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

WUWT provides more examples including some in the US including LA and Burbank. Here’s Burbank.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Yes, the weather station is virtually surrounded by asphalt runways, taxiways, and aircraft parking ramps. The likelihood for the station to get in the middle of a 400F jetwash is almost a certainty, being so close to taxiways with turns. This is a ridiculous place to measure for high temperatures.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Cities such as New York, Philadelphia, and Boston are prominent centers of political power. Less known: Their size, background ecology, and development patterns also combine to make them unusually warm, according to NASA scientists who presented new research recently at an American Geophysical Union (AGU) meeting in San Francisco, Calif.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
