Yes, if you have a sequence of comparable values that are not all identical, one of those values is the maximum.
If you keep hitting maxima at a rate that's not decreasing, then the sequence is trending upward. In this case not only is the rate of record-breaking not decreasing, it's increasing.
- horrified 5y agoWhat about the other months, they should also all be hitting records? In any case, I give them their record. My main issue was with the comparison to averages. Often they even call it "anomaly" which may technically be correct, but sounds much more scary than necessary.
