I am going to post dates and records highs for three scattered US cities, lets keep track for the next few weeks and see whats up!!! The way I see it, if Global warming exists the earth is gradualy getting hotter, so 2008 for example should set more record highs on the average than 2007....but just to give global warming a chance, lets see how many record highs have been set since 2000....
