Geography and time periods cherry-picking. The US is not the world so this is irrelevant to a discussion re global warming. Pre-1960 in the US includes the Dust Bowl droughts, a multi-year drought with a vicious positive reinforcement loop, exactly the kind of thing we want to avoid by addressing global warming.
Why was the period 1961-2020 chosen? Why omit the years 2021 to 2025? The X user appears to be a climate denier and is cherry-picking data to support their agenda.
In 2020 the average US temperature was 55.7 F. In 2025 it was 57.8 F, an increase of 2.1 F in only five years. The cherry-picking conveniently excludes 2022 when the US set an all-time record of 34 days where the max temp exceeded 100 F.
Yes, but the bars shown don't match the NOAA data source I found. Also, if the chart goes to 2025 then why was the 1961 to 2020 period chosen for the average? Doesn't make sense.
