Default I can't find a local hot spell in 1961 here at Southend-on-Seathat fits this?

I was awaiting the barrage of Global Warming deniers flooding my inbox and telling me it was a warmer climate in the 60's.

It could be worse, your inbox could have been flooded with messages from
Global Warming alarmists. The only real surprise of this current spell
of weather is that some maladjusted thermometer badly located in an
urban heat island and subject to the wind being in from Africa might
have led to another spate of sensationalist but irrelevant outpourings.

You wouldn't beleive the rubbish I have to endure!

It is all our misfortunes the we have to endure the rubbish of the
Unprecedented Catastrophic Anthropogenic Climate Change Global Heating
Emergency Alarm system.

Bruce shows on his blog the 'heatwave' of 1976 was worse than the present one we have been experiencing.
I tend to agree with him, the present definition of a heatwave is ridiculous.
Anything more unscientific I can't think of.
No wonder the media say we are getting 'heatwaves' more frequently.
We should just be looking at daily maxes and their distribution.

Doesn't matter what way we look at this, the number and frequency of record daily, monthly, yearly and decadal maxes are increasing all over the world and will continue to do that. It's now inevitable.

Denial died a decade ago.

The crazy definition of heatwaves does not do the science any favours.
Who is denying warming amongst the general public?
It is not deniers that are the problem it is the ignorers and that is due to global economics. Something that atm is slowing down, forced by other reasons.
No more jetting off for holidays in the Canaries Paul.
