USCRN Data Throws a Curveball: Second Biggest Month-to-Month Temperature Drop Since 2009
17 hours ago Anthony Watts
Dec 24 to Jan 25 was the 2nd biggest month-to-month temperature drop in the surface temperature record at 7.13°F in one month.
As many readers know, we follow the U.S. Climate Reference Network (USCRN) closely here, keeping it updated monthly on the right sidebar along with the UAH global satellite record. I choose these metrics because I and others have shown the rest of the surface temperature record to be nothing more than a collection of warm-biased and unreliable statistically maladjusted garbage data. Be as upset as you wish, but that’s the facts, jack.
This fact is something you won’t see splashed across the headlines of the mainstream climate press: the U.S. Climate Reference Network (USCRN) just recorded its second largest month-to-month temperature drop in the entire time series, beaten only by the plunge from November to December 2009. That’s right—despite the endless drumbeat of “hottest ever” claims, the pristine, state-of-the-art USCRN network is telling a different story for February 2025.
