HomePoliticsLAS VEGAS’ HOTTEST TEMPS SINCE 1931 DON’T LIE, POLITICIANS DO! Politics LAS VEGAS’ HOTTEST TEMPS SINCE 1931 DON’T LIE, POLITICIANS DO! July 27, 2023 Over the past couple of weeks, Las Vegas has experienced its hottest days of the year, with 116 being the hottest set on July 16th and 17th, 2023. With all the hype about Global Warming (I mean climate change), we thought we would take an objective look at the temperatures here in Las Vegas over the past century. We found temperature records for the hottest day each year going back to 1931. And this year was not the hottest on record. In fact, the hottest day of the year was set on July 26, 1931, at 118 degrees. But the bulk of the highest annual daily temperature average range was between 111 and 116, with a few temperatures below and a few above, with the highest bulk at 113. In 1931, Las Vegas was virtually uninhabited, except for a small number of folks. In 1931, gambling became legal, and they started construction on the Hoover Dam. The population spiked from around 2,000 people up to 5,165 that year. Today, well over 2.5 million people call Las Vegas home. And yet there were no record temperatures this year or last. If human development causes global warming, then Las Vegas should be example number one for global warming. But the highest daily temperature this year (so far) was 113, well within the normal range. Las Vegas is a valley, so our weather is extremely stable and consistent. So temperatures in Las Vegas should be in the 120s after millions of people built homes, businesses, drive cars daily, and operated air conditioners in Las Vegas, up from 2,000 folks in 1931. BTW Las Vegas was once under an ocean until the climate changed. So climate changing on Earth has sometimes helped humans, and other times it has challenged us. But one fact is clear: the Earth’s weather has changed constantly over 4 Billion years and will always change in the future. Humans must do what we have always done: adapt by leveraging our technology. 360 News Las Vegas has published this fact over and over: The climate has been changing forever, not just in the last 100 years. The temperature on Earth was much warmer 900 years ago than it is today, when the Vikings had farms. Yes, Greenland used to be green. Our own government admits it in a 2017 article in the Smithsonian magazine, titled Why Did Greenland’s Vikings Vanish? “They (the Vikings) discovered Greenland during a time known as the Medieval Warm Period, which lasted from about 900 to 1300 AD. Sea ice decreased during those centuries, so sailing from Scandinavia to Greenland became less hazardous. Longer growing seasons made it feasible to graze cattle, sheep and goats in the meadows along sheltered fjords on Greenland’s southwest coast. In short, the Vikings simply transplanted their medieval European lifestyle to an uninhabited new land, theirs for the taking.” In 1400 AD, the greatest challenge (for the Vikings) —and the coup de grâce—came when the climate began to cool, triggered by an event on the far side of the world.” This demonstrates Dems’ climate change is a fraud. The temperatures on Earth have radically warmed and cooled over the last 2,000 years without gas-powered cars.
