No Temperature Record Broke In Phoenix Past 12,085 Days And Counting.

[elektra]

Hottest day on record in Phoenix: 122 degrees (June 26, 1990).

Wow, that was very long ago. 12,085 days ago. Reading the news today, I thought something unheard of was happening in the SouthWest deserts. There is not. Thus far, a record has not been broken.

Yes, we can make up all kinds of headlines, that tell the truth much better.

Phoenix temperatures fail, repeatedly, to break record high temperature set in the USA

Phoenix temperatures fail, repeatedly, to break record high temperature set in the USA

Under the influence of a tenacious heat dome, Phoenix has blown past a record for the longest stretch of days with high temperatures at or above 110 degrees Fahrenheit (43.3 degrees Celsius). As of July 26, that record stood at 27 days. (The previous record, set in 1974, was 18 days.)

Phoenix also tied the record (previously set in 2021) for the most days in a row—six—with a high of at least 115 degrees F (46.1 degrees C). Additionally, the city has tied the record for the most days at or above 115 degrees F within a single year, with 14 days so far in 2023.

And Phoenix hasn’t only sweltered during the day. Nighttime lows hit an all-time high record of 97 degrees F (36.1 degrees C), breaking an earlier peak on July 19. The city has seen a record 17 consecutive days with a low of 90 degrees F (32.2 degrees C) or higher. The previous record of seven days was set twice in 2020.

I remember that day!

It really didn’t feel any hotter than the normal 118 day.

 

[Innocynioc]

Good point.

 

[Harry Dresden]

vegas hasnt set any yet either....the hottest was in 1931....118 degrees....117 so far this year....but every year since i have been here there has always been a stretch of 113 to 116 degree temps for a week or so.....

The low temperatures are really what makes it feel hotter. Pool water temperatures are above 95 in the day.

We certainly are having a hot summer this year. The last few years have been pretty easy. But it is an El Niño year so while most of the rest of the country gets extra moisture, we are left high and dry.

New Phoenix Record Set, 73,000 days below the record high temperature for the USA

LOL I just saw this on PDW

Temperature record highs over a number of days have broken previous records.
There seems to be nobody left on the denialist side that understands their talking points!

In 12,085 days no temperature record was broke. No single day record broke.

That is a fact. The Faithful of AGW are irrelevant.

There is nothing wrong or abnormal about slightly increasing temperatures. Our planet has been on a warming cycle for the last 15,000 years. Plus we keep building concrete urban sprawl all over the place, in large part because we welcome millions of new people in our country. If people cared so much about it they would stop all the rampant immigration and new urban building.

Dealing with AGW can't be a tradeoff with immigrants needs.

Defeat of Russia would be accomplishing a long term solution for America.

Russia faces increased immigration too but has no excuse to oppose it. Neither does Canada with our low population density and our immense resources.

So “immigration needs”, aka destroying America’s identity is more important that “climate change”.

It’s almost as if destroying America and the West is the TOP priority above all.

Almost? I say it is. The Democrats are purposely destroying as much as they can.

New Phoenix Record Set, 73,000 days below the record high temperature for the USA

Phoenix did not set a new record for its own highest temperature, how would it have set a record for the USA (which I'm fairly certain belongs to Furnace Creek, Death Valley, California.

For those interested, 73,000 days is precisely 200 years.

The highest temperature recorded on Earth has been measured in three major ways: air, ground, and via satellite observation. Air measurements are used as the standard measurement due to persistent issues with unreliable ground and satellite readings. Air measurements are noted by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) and Guinness World Records among others as the standard to be used for determining the official record. The current official highest registered air temperature on Earth is 56.7 °C (134.1 °F), recorded on 10 July 1913 at Furnace Creek Ranch, in Death Valley in the United States.[1] For ninety years, a former record that was measured in Libya had been in place, until it was decertified in 2012 based on evidence that it was an erroneous reading. This finding has since raised questions about the legitimacy of the 1913 record measured in Death Valley, with several meteorological experts asserting that there were similar irregularities. The WMO has stood by the record as official pending any future investigative results. If the current record were to be decertified then the holder would be a tie at 54.0 °C (129.2 °F), recorded both at Furnace Creek and in Kuwait.[a]

Several unverified temperatures that exceed the current record have also been recorded. These include historical claims that were never authenticated due to the equipment available at the time and unverified scientific claims. There are also disproven amateur readings that have been posted on social media showing evidence of extreme temperature.

No record set in Phoenix, The USA's high temperature looks like it will never be set in Phoenix.

No record set in Phoenix, The USA's high temperature looks like it will never be set in Phoenix.

Cooler this morning as it is a bit overcast.

Not heating up as fast (as it has).

Still a lot of 110+ in the forecast, but not contiguous.

And what relevance do you believe that holds for this converstation?
