1/9/13, “2012 was warmest year ever recorded in USA,” UK Register, by Simon Sharwood
“Earth’s surface area is 510 million km2, but the State of the Climate report from the USA’s National Climatic Data Center at the nation’s National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration says the
contiguous USA’s 7.664 million km2
experienced its hottest year ever recorded during 2012, which it also ranked the second most “extreme” for weather events. The report, available here, is a dispassionate document that adumbrates plenty of data but doesn’t offer deep links to more detailed information.
Nor does the report contain
the phrase “climate change”, any
mention of anthropogenic emissions or
carbon dioxide….
The report is silent on why 2012 produced the weather it records.
The few mentions of large-scale climate phenomena
dispassionately report observations about them during 2012 and
but don’t go any further.“…via Free Republic
