40% Of U.S. All-Time Record Maximums Were Set During The 1930s
'40% of those stations set their all-time record maximum temps during the 1930s. 21% set their all-time record maximum temps in the year 1936 alone. By contrast, only 1% of those stations set their all-time record max temp in the current decade. 89% of those stations set their all-time record with CO2 below 350 ppm...There were 8 times as many all-time record maximums set in 1901 as there were in 'the hottest year ever' 2012'
NOAA says that 2012 was the hottest year ever in the United States. Only three stations (0.3%) set their all time record maximum during NOAA’s hottest year ever, compared to one hundred seventy two stations (21%) in 1936.
