The data is in: ‘2012 Was Not Hottest Year In U.S.’ — ‘NOAA has finally gotten 2012 data set (almost) complete, & 2012 was 2nd warmest year in US after 1921 & slightly warmer than 1931 & 1934’
Analysis by Real Science: 'They claim that 2012 was the warmest (by a large margin) because they tamper with the data before releasing it to the public. NOAA subtracted almost 1.5 degrees from the measured 1921 temperature. Most of the anomalous warmth in the US occurred during colder seasons, and was manifested by mild winter and springtime temperatures'
