Global Warming? Say What?

The AP is reporting the coldest temperature ever recorded on earth:

Feeling chilly? Here's cold comfort: You could be in East Antarctica which new data says set a record for "soul-crushing" cold.

Try 135.8 degrees Fahrenheit below zero; that's 93.2 degrees below zero Celsius, which sounds only slightly toastier. Better yet, don't try it. That's so cold scientists say it hurts to breathe.

A new look at NASA satellite data revealed that Earth set a new record for coldest temperature recorded. It happened in August 2010 when it hit -135.8 degrees. Then on July 31 of this year, it came close again: -135.3 degrees.

The old record had been -128.6 degrees, which is -89.2 degrees Celsius.

This is another data point that did not/will not show up in Algore's PowerPoint presentation.

An inconvenient truth. 

The new record was not a slight difference. It blew away the previous record. The old record: -129; the new record: -136. Almost 7 degrees. When records like these are set, it's generally a tenth of a degree or maybe a full degree at best. This is not trivial. And that was back in 2010 when things were said to be warming up. Hmmmm.....

And to think the my granddaughters and I were around to read about this.
