It used to be that you could go the the US Drought Monitor website and download a hundred years of drought data. Had you done that you would have seen that US droughts are decreasing in area and intensity. For some inexplicable reason the website no longer allows you to download this long term data. Instead you're limited to something like 15 years of data. I wonder why this inconvenient truth has been suppressed.
Another interesting bit of data, which can be downloaded from NASA, is global temperatures. This data goes back 80 years with monthly figures available. Sure enough it shows increasing temps. However if you look at the standard deviation of temps per year you'll see that as climate scientists were claiming that temp swings were becoming more extreme the standard deviation was actually decreasing.
