Another 'the dog eat my homework' excuse by government personnel caught cooking information. Time to repeal the Tenured Patronage Civil Service Act.

Actually this has been known for a while but it's finally making it to more mainstream notice. I'm not sure HOW they thought they could go back and change the historical data and not have people notice.
I must admit, I have a bad attitude toward Warmers and their Religion.

I've gotten into the habit of saving articles like this as PDF. In a month or two you won't be able to find it using Google or Bing -- unless you know the exact title, date and website. If you get your search perfect then suddenly these pop back up. Otherwise, it never happened.

As SB pointed out, this has been known for a while. To "account" for urban heat sinks NOAA averaged the clearly hot stations with the cooler stations.
The result? Warmer temperatures!
Think about it; the systematic errors are all towards higher temperatures (e.g. weather stations on top of a tar roof; none have been put in freezers). Instead of discounting clearly invalid stations, by instead averaging them in you are "adjusting" good stations upwards. This was done with malice of forethought.
Scientist have known about this maladjustment for sometime and very few have stood-up to say that the king has no clothes.
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
