July was the hottest month ever recorded on Earth, NOAA says

Meh, I've felt hotter.

 

20 years ago?

 

And 30.

 

I bet it was pretty hot when the ice from the ice age melted.

 

Im pretty sure the Dinosaurs experienced several hotter July's in their 165 million year existence......

 

I didn't click the link, but I'll bet they're talking about how hot the freight rates were in July!

Was I right?

 

Well considering the small time we've been recording. I think we'll be breaking hot/cold records for a VERY long time.

 

The global temperature record shows the fluctuations of the temperature of the atmosphere and the oceans through various spans of time. The most detailed information exists since 1850, when methodical thermometer-based records began.

 

Right. But rounding up. That's 200 out of 2k years. Plus the planet is millions of years old. So our records are seconds vs years. In comparison.
