We are pleased to introduce the new WUWT US Climatic History Reference Page
The graphs within offer a reasonable overview of climatic conditions in the United States during our brief historical record. I don’t see any indications of catastrophically rapid and dangerously accelerating climatic indicators. Does any one else?
For those who may argue that the United States is small portion of the world’s total landmass and thus not necessarily representative of world-wide trends, you are correct. Please be assured that the WUWT Global Climatic History Page is under development and will go live in the next couple weeks.
The US and Global Climatic History Reference Pages, will join the recently introduced WUWT US Weather History Reference Page;
and a growing number of valuable WUWT Reference Pages;
including the Sea Ice, Solar, Ocean, ENSO, Geomagnetism and Atmosphere pages.
If you have have any suggested additions or improvements to any of the Reference Pages, or recommendations for new reference pages, please let us know in comments below.

I’m probably too late to respond now but – Nope – sorry.
Are you using Internet Explorer? If so, do you know which version?

? Read the words “not necessarily representative of world-wide trends”. Might be, might not be, but it’s irrelevant, because, as I said, “WUWT Global Climatic History Page is under development and will go live in the next couple weeks”…

“The graph in question turns out to be the January average temperatures. WUWT’s Climatic History Reference Page would be much clearer if that were indicated in the caption.”
I assume you mean the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) – National Climatic Data Center (NCDC) Surface Temperature – 1895 to Present graph, which is a monthly graph, thus I’ve added “Monthy” to its title. However, it should be updating automatically, i.e. it should be March, not January. Why do you say January?

“Why do you say January?”
Because the first chart that came up on WUWT’s reference page a few days ago proved to be identical to that generated for January by: http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/oa/climate/research/cag3/na.html
Just now, however, the reference page failed to produce any chart.
