AP's Seth Borenstein noted recent "cool — even record cool — temperatures in Texas:"
7/1/13, “Why this heat wave’s so scary and what’s behind it,” AP, Seth Borenstein
“Q: So what’s causing all this?
A: Part of it is normal summer heat spurts, said meteorologist Kenneth James of the Weather Prediction Center in College Park, Md. But there’s another factor and that’s the jet stream. Normally the jet stream moves generally west-to-east, but when it slows and swings dramatically to the north or south, extreme weather can happen.
What’s happening now is “a really big kink in the jet stream, about as big as you can see anytime, covering the whole western U.S.,” said heat wave expert Ken Kunkel, a professor of atmospheric sciences at North Carolina State University.
To the west of the kink, in Arizona and Nevada, there’s a high pressure system just parked there with stagnant heat, Kunkel said. And to its east are cool — even record cool — temperatures in Texas, he said."...

Comment: Persons who believe CO2 causes bad weather in the US southwest are free to chat with the Zetas who run Northern Mexico's lucrative coal mining business which sends CO2 to the US Southwest:
1/4/13, Coal mining is "more lucrative for Zetas than selling drugs."
==============================
11/17/12, "Mexican druglords strike gold in coal," AFP via Gloucester City News"Since the Zetas discovered coal, violence has been on the rise, especially in a town of 150,000 called Piedras Negras, or black stones....Legitimate businesses help cartels launder money and bring in extra revenue....Such business activities allow them not just to bring in more money "but above all gain social and political legitimacy."...Traffickers sometimes kidnap, mug or even kill miners and their bosses, or force them into business-sharing agreements."...
-----------------------------------------------
Coal mined by the Zetas is "sold to state-owned electric company CFE."

"Mexico's federal human rights agency has said that criminal involvement in the mines poses a threat to miners' lives, by stripping them of basic safety protocols."...

5/4/11, "Mexican Mine Explosion Leaves Five Dead; “No Chance” For Other Miners, Labor Secretary Says," latindispatch.com
"The gas explosion that trapped 14 miners underground Tuesday in the northern Mexican state of Coahuila has now claimed the lives of five of those workers.
Rescue crews at the mine near the town of Sabinas worked overnight to rescue the trapped miners, but have so far only recovered five bodies.... Mining near-surface coal in the region is a way of life for thousands of miners who sell the coal to the Mexican state for power generation and often work with little more than basic tools."...
===========================
If CO2 alarmists (such as Mayor Bloomberg) haven't spoken to the Zetas or petitioned the UN to close Zeta coal mines, then they don't really think CO2 is killing the planet after all. They want something, and they're falsely using CO2 to get what it is they want.
