- orionion 4y agoIt doesn't apply south of the border??? Every day at lunch I Google: "Mexico City temp" Always in the 70s... August 15, 2022 71°F°C Precipitation: 14% Humidity: 51% Wind: 6 mph Mexico City, CDMX, Mexico Monday 12:00 PM Mostly cloudy
- jacobsievers 4y agoMexico City is at 2200 meters. High altitude is going to be cooler.
- mh- 4y agoJuly also isn't the hottest part of the year there. April or May is.
- soared 4y agoThen you should know that Mexico City is similar to SF in that there are not extreme temperatures. Mexico City average high temperature monthly.. the low is 72 and the high is 81.
- ajross 4y agoAre you seriously trying to cherry-pick a single outlier to refute a planet-wide data set? FWIW: if your point was that you were expecting Mexico City to be hot like Cancun, you need to check a map. The city is in the middle of a mountain plateau at 7000' MSL!
- patrick451 4y agoCherry picking a single event is exactly what happens all the time trying to convince me climate is change is real. Every news article I read about basically any weather "anomaly", whether a flood, drought, hurricane, fire, heatwave coldsnap or tornado, blames the event on climate change. If you're against argument from anecdotes, the pro climate change side of the isle has a huge mote to remove from their own eye.
- SoftTalker 4y agoI don't think you can pick one locale and argue anything based on that. I've lived in the Midwest USA my whole life (over 50 years). The weather seems about the same as always. I remember 100 degree days when I was a kid in the 1970s. They are rare but they happen occasionally then as now (we haven't been above mid-90s here yet this year). July and August are hot and humid, as always. I can't say that I've noticed any trends up or down, but that doesn't mean that the data on global averages are wrong.
