And why would anyone infer the Dust Bowl era was acceptable anyway? Even if the argument was true it’s a dumb one to make, indeed it supports the climate change fears.
May I ask what tools you used to make those world maps? This bogus argument is universal and I’d love to produce a map for memorable heat waves in my corner of the woods, Western Europe.
Yep, I've used basemap in the past but its no longer supported, so I switched to cartopy for this. Ended up using GPT4 to help me with the code (e.g. designing the colorbar and its location).
I'm struggling to see how the comparison of summer max temperatures averaged over some number of summer months over a decade (although only one image indicates the time period 2013-2022 and the other just 1930s) invalidates the clear 1930s dust bowl spike in the Heat Wave Index. Perhaps the HWI plot was based on an average of just the warmest parts of the US? Is there something inherent in the calculation of the HWI that is flawed? Sorry, but this seems like apples and oranges to some extent...or cherry picking one approach over another. Just asking for a friend.
I don't know if it's "interesting", "funny", or none of that, but the linked article about the "warming pause" literally reads "the data are not cherry picked". Go figure.

Zeke made the plots and I think he made them himself w/ python (cartopy) based on the Berkeley Earth data

ChatGPT gives a very good starting point usually indeed!
Thanks! I am proficient in Python and you are saving me time by giving the name of the package.

We've also done the daily analysis. See page 182 of this document: https://essopenarchive.org/users/260056/articles/1330312-climate-experts-review-of-the-doe-climate-working-group-report?commit=f2b7646f3573ccc4bd74fcc2e9a1111dfbf078c2

Is this an "homage" or, are we on the same wavelength?

Anthropogenic Particulate is a form of Geoengineering. We have been geoengineering the Earth's Climate for awhile.
I discuss the same chart, in detail.
