In past messages I have related dozens of long-term trends indicating global

warming. Iowa has not seen such high temperatures ever. Normally it is

comfortable during the summer.

And when some place gets cold next winter, someone else will claim that

global warming is a hoax.

Momentary highs and lows are expected with or without climate change. The

only thing that shows or disproves *global* warming is long-term statistical

patterns averaging the entire planet. Anecdotes about particular weather

events, whether heat waves, blizzards, hurricanes, droughts, etc., might be

interesting, but they don't have anything to say about climate change due to

global warming.
