Which is just one more way to lie about this lie called climate change...I mean global warming...I mean global cooling...oh, nevermind.
“ 96 percent of the facilities used to measure heat failed to meet the agency’s own “uncorrupted placement” standards.”
Corrupted by libtards as usual No wonder they think it’s the end of the world
When the thermometer doesn’t read what the agenda calls for, you just say they are all bad in need of replacement. Then you buy the thermometers that read what you want/need them too.
I knew it!
Just another thing to add to the ever-growing garbage in, garbage out Climate Change/Global Warming list...
> 96 percent of the facilities used to measure heat failed to meet the agency’s own “uncorrupted placement” standards <
I’m guessing they’ll just relax the standards. After all, Climate Change is “settled science”. We can’t let pesky little things like measurement failures unsettle the science.
There's a USCRN (Climate Reference Network) of stations without all the problems mentioned in the Heartland report. You will never see the government (e.g. EPA) display those temperatures even though they collect then. Here's one snap a couple of years old: 
It has not gotten warmer, no trend, no warming 2005 to date.
I still remember an article that had photos of these in bad places for readings. Ome was on a rooftop next to a heating vent.
One thing that has happened is that when a lot of the weather monitoring stations were built, they were placed correctly, out in the open, the correct distance from other objects, etc.
As urban sprawl happened, that changed the environmental conditions and created heat islands with more buildings and that interferes with accurate temperature and precipitation measurements.
It is not necessarily faulty equipment or incorrect placement by the NWS. It’s urbanization.
These manipulated temperature records are the entire “Data Proof” basis for the “Climate Change” communist take over, including Green Energy, no oil drilling, solar, windmills, etc.
All they have besides that is their own computer models.
Kick down the temperature data set and the entire house of communist cards collapses.
They have nothing else. There entire “Carbon Bad!!!” justification is based on manipulated temperature records.
Klaus, Gates, WEF, all of them must be stopped!
Ohhh, I see now.
So the heat island effect I have been yelling for years about just might be real ?
And the common sense thing that I notice a 1-2 temperature rise every time I drive back into the metro area I live from the country might mean something ?

Look at where a tone of these things are: airports. Major ones. Between vast uninterrupted swaths of concrete and tarmac, constant jet exhaust, and zero cover they're the hottest places you can imagine in any given region.

“NOAA’s ‘Requirements and Standards for [National Weather Service] Climate Observations‘ instructs that temperature data instruments must be “over level terrain (earth or sod) typical of the area around the station and at least 100 feet from any extensive concrete or paved surface,’”“
This is so much worse than I thought .
Only 100 feet from concrete or paving?
One only needs a second grade education to know that’s laughable.
A station should probably be 5 miles away from a urban area to not be affected by large amounts of buildings with asphalt roofs and roads, etc.
OF COURSE increased urbanization happening around temperature measuring stations will make higher temperatures be measured .
Roofs and highways collect heat.
A second grader could figure this out
That can't be accidental.
NOAA Temperature Adjustments Correlate Exactly with the Rise in CO2 - Big Surprise
Thermometers show the US cooling since about 1920, but NOAA massively cools the past to create the appearance of a warming trend. These adjustments make a spectacular hockey stick of data tampering. When plotted against atmospheric CO2, the correlation is almost perfect. NOAA is tampering with the data exactly to match their theory.
NOAA Radiosonde Data Shows No Warming For 58 Years March 7, 2016
NOAA Fiddles With Climate Data To Erase The 15-Year Global Warming ‘Hiatus’ 6/4/2015
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration scientists have found a solution to the 15-year “pause” in global warming: They “adjusted” the hiatus in warming out of the temperature record. New climate data by NOAA scientists doubles the warming trend since the late 1990s by adjusting pre-hiatus temperatures downward and inflating temperatures in more recent years.
GISS US tampering.NOAA = Fake Science!
Shades of CoupFlu data...
Who was the freeper, who documented how these station were relocated from standard areas to places like roofs over bakeries or a treeless stand in an airport by the tarmac?
