    Just to keep peeps up to speed, August was the 15th month in a row of being the hottest month on record.

    "The average global land and ocean surface temperature in August was 2.29 degrees F (1.27 degrees C) above the 20th-century average of 60.1 degrees F (15.6 degrees C), ranking as the warmest August in the global climate record. This August marks the 15th-consecutive month of record-high global temperatures — which is itself a record streak. "

    Maybe September will snap the streak. It snowed afterall...

    Very cool! Is your dog mixed breed or is it a border collie on PEDs?

    He's a Montana Cat Dog*

    *we thought he was supposed to be 1/2 Blue Heeler + 1/2 Border Collie. He is 37.5% Bluey, 12.5% Pitbull, 12.5% Bulldog, 12.5% Great Pyrenees & 25% other.

    2024 hottest year

    The average global temperature was 1.47 to 1.62 degrees Celsius (2.65 to 2.92 degrees Fahrenheit) hotter than pre-industrial levels. More than 190 countries, including the U.S., which signed the 2015 Paris Agreement, agreed to try to stay below 1.5 degrees Celsius.


    it’s 2024 and we’ve already hit the 1.5 degree target for 2100. Climate alarmists!!!

    I remember when somebody here told me back in 2020 how we would see cooling over the next 4-5 years due to changes in solar intensity. Another good call.
