Climatologist Dr. Roy Spencer on ‘hottest year’ temp adjustments by Feds: ‘Spencer says that urban weather stations have reported higher temps partly because, as a city grows, it becomes a bit hotter’
'But instead of adjusting directly for that, he says that to make the urban and rural weather readings match, NOAA “warmed the rural stations' [temperature readings] to match the urban stations' -- which would make it seem as if all areas were getting a bit warmer' -- 'NOAA has made so many adjustments to the data it's ridiculous'
