The world is still falling short on limiting climate change, according to U.N. report


Matt Salerno, a National Weather Service meteorologist, said the hot streak could reach 55 days.
"We do have one more day," he said.
An extreme heat warning remained in effect, with temperatures forecast at 111 F (43.9 C) on Sunday and 106 F (41.1 C) on Monday.

Up here in cool damp Seattle we are looking at clear days near 80 for the rest of September? Deep sediment core samples taken from the Mississippi river indicates we have had these thermal "surges" before. Despite what we are able to do (or not?) we may just be "along for the ride".

Some fools actually believe this "climate change" crap.

Mostly because of the massive increase in asphalt paved street in and around Phoenix in the past few decades.

It has been discovered that dark impervious surfaces, rather than buildings in the city, are primarily responsible for extreme heat in Phoenix [16]. This finding has also been confirmed by Imhoff et al. [17]. Zheng et al. examined the effects of spatial configuration of paved surfaces on LST in Phoenix urban area using local Moran’s I and suggested that aggregate warming effects were mainly contributed by clustered paved surfaces
