According to the NOAA, October 2016 Tmax in the USA was 117th warmest out of 122. 122 wast warmest.

1963 was warmest. 1947, 1950, 1953 and 1938 were also warmer than 2016.

(I publish Tmax instead of Tavg because I believe much of the US warming is UHI making the evenings warmer which shows up in the Tmin)

Illinois/Indiana Jun-Sep Max Temp

I did a post comparing CO2 to Jun-Sep Maximum temperatures using NOAA data here.

I picked maximum because the AGW cult predicts killer heat waves in the summer.

Then I randomly looked at Iowa.

How about Indiana and Illinois?

Despite a tripling of manmade CO2 since 1965, “summer” max temps in USA still are lower than 1936.

According to the NOAA, September 2016 Tmax in the USA was only 100th warmest out of 122.

1998 was warmest. But 1922 was 2nd and 1953 3rd.

I think CO2 has forsaken September.

1was warmest with 1936 and 1937 a very close 2nd and 3rd.
