    Even without global warming, 100°f days or not exactly uncommon in large chunk of the US.

      Not anymore, no. They used to be quite uncommon. Just as a reminder, we have been dumping CO2 in the atmosphere since before anyone living was ever born.

        Even the generous estimates only put us at about 1°c increase by human activity. While the large scale effects of this are causing problems, it doesn’t really change the fact that there are plenty of 100°F days even discounting that increase.
