I just want to know how has a camera ready and sitting on the end-table in order to snap a quick photo of their TV…. That’s a great combination of planning AND skill for sure.
…And also a great strategy in case the dawning of the next ice-age happens to be televised 😉

Feelin’ hot, hot, hot!
I have been to NM and it is not THAT hot….lol
They just have to go into the Carlsbad caverns for relief from the heat. They might meet a cabal of CAGW advocates plotting another “event”, you never know. 😉

Ok, hottest 6 months ever, the warmists have won, i give in.

Looks like cooler July temperatures then when I lived there over 50 years ago. With the exception of Friday.

Well, on the bright side –
delivered pizza will be hot.

The temperature here (Southern NM) just dropped from 85 to 60 in a few minutes in our local thunderstorm. It rained 0.45 inches in about an hour.

There will be a forest fire Special Report on Saturday.

Not to worry; it will be counted and added to the temp record just like all the other erroneous numbers. NAP! (Nothing boosts an average more than an added digit!)

Albuquerque is just going the test their new geothermal electrical power plant next Friday. It’s going to heat things up a bit locally, but being sustainable and emitting zero C02, it has EPA’s stamp of approval! 🙂

Thank Lucifer it’s Friday.

Quick – get those numbers to NCDC, NOAA, so they can give a boost to other station temps and keep showing how hot it is this year.

We laugh, yet that number will make its way into the dataset and get extrapolated 1200 miles in every direction. Expect a 2400 mile wide deep red dot on the next anomaly chart from NOAA.

I guess this is on topic (I saw this Friday morning and thought it funny (in a macabre way)).
On NH’s main commercial TV station, the AM news reported “Victim in fatal car crash improves.” There were two “victims”, they weren’t talking about the dead one.
(Both passengers, both hanging out of windows while 21 year old driver who never had a license crashes into utility pole.)

As this forecast comes from a model, you can BET that this record will be in the climate data base. After all, models DO provide data now.
Climate science reminds me so much of the politician that promised above average income for every citizen if they vote for him.

News at 10:00 Albequerque hits 890 degrees. Vulcans land at nearby airport, bringing Warp Drive technology to man.

Albuquerque is exquisite, but WAY too cold for me. The mountain views are astounding.
