FWIW, a 30 year gap between record highs is not supportive of global warming. Global warming should be making record weather events more common, which would imply records being broken in rapid succession.
- martinpw 9y ago> Global warming should be making record weather events more common Not necessarily. If there was no long term warming trend, records would become less common over time, since they would be weather-related random values and there are more previous year data points to compare against. A warming trend would act counter to that effect, but not necessarily overcome it.
- toasterlovin 9y agoYeah, but we haven’t been measuring temperatures for that long.
