So far in 2014, record low temperatures outpace record highs nearly 2-1 in the USA

Numbers released today by NOAA’s National Climatic Data Center show that not only has July been abnormally cool in the USA, but so has 2014 in general. For the last 30 days, there have been 574 record highest temperatures in the USA, and 1,726 record lowest. A ratio of 3 to 1, indicating that July was very cool. But, the year so far has also been cool.

So far for the USA year to date, the numbers of record lows outpace the highs two to one.

This year, here have been been 12,644 daily record lowest temperatures versus 6,615 record highest temperatures in the USA, a ratio of 1.91 to 1.0.

For all types of high and low daily records for the year to date, there were 29,372 cold records versus  16,761 warm records, a ratio of 1.75 to 1.0

If all high and low daily record types are considered for the last 365 days, cold still outpaces warm. There are 46,712 cold records versus 36,650 warm records.

The ratios for monthly all time records also see cold records outpacing warm ones.

From the National Climatic Data Center:

The summaries below list the number of records broken for several recent periods is summarized in this table and updated daily. Due to late-arriving data, the number of recent records is likely underrepresented in all categories, but the ratio of records (warm to cold, for example) should be a fairly strong estimate of a final outcome. There are many more precipitation stations than temperature stations, so the raw number of precipitation records will likely exceed the number of temperature records in most climatic situations.

NCDC record high-low table

For all time records, cold and warm records are about evenly balanced for 2014, with 28 warm records year-to-date versus 32 cold records.

As mentioned earlier by NCDC recent records (30 days or less) are probably underrepresented.

Wow, Ren is in Poland, a peaceful and beautiful place I would love to visit. Lots of forests, parks, national parks, nature reserves, protected areas and biodiversity. You guys have it pretty good, place has made a lot of progress. People there are hard working, tolerant, peaceful, good food and enjoy a lot of freedom.
It also explains why you’re so into weather. Ice sheets shaped almost all the geographical structure. The cold fronts that come from out of Siberia and Scandinavia. Awesome place though!

I have to ask what an urban shaman is, I’ve never lived in a big city. Like spiritual healing or a medicine man living in a concrete jungle?

Low solar activity is an increase of ionizing radiation at the Earth’s surface. Remember the black fruit.
My city Lodz is not as big. You can live peacefully.

Yeah, you are talking about cosmic rays getting in. But what black fruit? Black plumbs, figs? I always try to eat black berries and grapes over light colored.
Kiwi fruit contain a rich supply of phytochemicals, substances known to prevent or sometimes cure many chronic diseases. Strong antioxidant with a high concentration of magnesium and other useful minerals plus vitamins C & E. KIWI

Ed Martin You are also a shaman. You have an eagle feather.

Harrier feather, they leave me feathers, harriers absolutely love it here. We must be distant cousins. Family came over from Germany & Poland area back in the early 1900’s.
Cousin Ren, so Sunspot, New Mexico… conversation goes like this…
Richard Altrock, “Leif, we sure set some low temperature records down here at SP, brrr!” LS, “Was there a massive volcano eruption?” RA, “No, just a small one or two in the last year. Sun has been pretty much been sleeping on the job as you know.” LS, “Nonsense, it just can’t be.” Solar physicist visiting from Sunman, Indiana, “Golly, you guys sure do live in a bubble.”

Ed Martin probably due to a decrease of ozone increases UVB at the surface. In Poland, significantly increased the number of malignant melanoma.

Ed Martin here’s live map of ozone anomalies. You can see a clear excess over the Antarctic.

See you a Siberia and raise you an Oz Bob Barker-

“When Charlotte Pass locals say it’s cold, you know it’s cold. The small community with five ski lifts holds the record for Australia’s lowest temperature (not including Antarctic territories).
That record was set on the evening of June 29, 1994, when the mercury plummeted to minus 23 degrees. Yes, minus 23. Interestingly, that’s a colder official temperature than has ever been recorded in New Zealand, although that’s only because New Zealand has fewer weather stations than Australia.”
And that’s the problem Bob. There aren’t enough thermometers and what there are haven’t been around for any worthwhile time series and that’s before the usual suspects get to fiddle with them or disappear them. And don’t let anyone kid you Noo Zulland is a warmer country than Oz.

Ed Martin I would recommend, especially during hot weather.
GrepoSept contains pure concentrate of bioflavonoids and vitamin C.
Is extracted from the seeds, pulp and membranes of grapefruit.

AGW is an excuse for depopulation, unfortunately, The depopulation agenda preceded the AGW theory. David Rockefeller referred to the NWO depopulation agenda in 1969, a year after The Club of Rome was founded at his estate in Bellagio, Italy to create an environmental scenario to rationalize the Committee of 300’s depopulation agenda. (they really use these terms; I’ve heard Edmund de Rothschild refer to the Group of 7 and the Group of 20, and there are probably nearly as many secret organizations with >90% membership redundancy as the total number of their members).
The AGW-scam is an incredible opportunity for those of us with basic knowledge of climate science to expand our knowledge

Got it, Ren, thank you very much. I’ll check out your posts as soon as possible. Been very, very busy working, pretty wore out. All appears like very plausible at a glance. Thanks again.
May take a little while but will catch up with you. 🙂
