Continuing the pattern established in the spring, extending through the summer and into September, new record high temperatures are outpacing record low temperatures in the U.S. for the 10th consecutive month. Preliminary data from the National Climatic Data Center (NCDC) for October show over 1500 new record highs, vs. slightly more than 300 lows, giving a ratio of 4.75 to 1. For the year to date, new highs are exceeding new lows by a ratio of 2.8 to 1. Reversing the trend in September, new record warm minimum temperatures also exceeded record high maximums as they have in nearly every month so far in 2010. The excess of high minimum records was particularly strong in the summer, when as many as 3761 were reported in August alone. With the exception of a cold spell from October 5th through 7th, record highs equaled or exceeded record lows every day of the month. The large monthly excess of heat records vs. cold records was driven by two very warm spells, one in each half of the month. The first one, around Columbus Day, peaked on the 11th, when 194 record highs were set, vs. only 1 record low. In a 3-day period, 530 heat records were set, over 50% more than the cold records for the entire month. In connection with the Minnesota Maxi-cyclone late in the month, many more records were set in the eastern half of the country. There were 325 individual record high temperatures from the 26th through the 28th, more than the total lows for the whole month. During the same 3 days, there were only 18 record lows.

2010 the Hottest Ever. To be one of the Coolest years of the decade. It's All over. Especially as one of the Main Planks of the GOP will be to turn back ANY and ALL progress toward stopping 450 ppm. Actually a vote for the GOP would be a vote to get this charade over ASAP.
And I really love this. The AGW deniers citing snow as evidence that the Planet is NOT heating up: # # Tom Nelson: Hottest year ever update: European ski resorts opening ... Oct 30, 2010 ...

They don't realize that warmer air holds more moisture than colder air?

They don't realize that warmer air holds more moisture than colder air? They don't realiza alot of things. And note how the MSM never seems to be able to find the time to tell them. 8D This is gonna hit like a Louisville Slugger. ;}
But of course we've got time to put out US AgitProp: "UPDATE II: Here's what NPR listeners heard on Friday (h/t Pedinska): MELISSA BLOCK: Now, Dina, the fact that these packages were coming from Yemen targeting apparently Jewish synagogues in Chicago, that triggers all sorts of connections, doesn't it? DINA TEMPLE-RASTON: Indeed. I mean, they think that al-Qaida in Yemen is somehow behind this. And the sources I spoke to said that they believe that they saw the fingerprints of the American-born imam that we've talked a lot about, Anwar al-Awlaki, and perhaps he's behind this. Why not just turn over these media outlets to government officials directly and cut out the middlemen? I suppose the answer is that doing so would destroy the illusion of independence, which is vital to the effective dissemination of propaganda. "
