ABC News Radio has been running with this Stanford Study as their lead story every hour since earlier today. Just as soon as we have our first heatwave of the summer, Global Warming must be the cause. Did we not have heatwaves 20 years ago??
It's obvious to me that every election cycle for the foreseeable future, we're going to have these Global Warming (end of the world) studies. That is, unless they get their way and implement Cap and Tax. Then, it will all magically go away.
Al Gore and his buddies, Mitt Romney and Chris Christie, must be smiling tonight.

The hottest summer in my lifetime was the summer of ‘88. 23 years ago.
I suppose global warming was the cause then, too?

They can’t let go of this. There is simply too much power and money to be made from it.

We had plenty of heat 50 years ago but nobody had air conditioning so you got used to it and it didn’t feel as hot.

Warm is good. Food prices go down when it warms.
Prediction of weather/climate over long term is impossible. The Navier Stokes equations are non-linear and chaotic. Small differences (like the difference between your thermometer and the one next to you) double every 7 days or so.
Average temperature is an artifact of how the average was obtained. It has no ability to predict the future. The california deserts have temperature swings of 40 degrees every day. A few degrees one way or the other would not even be noticable.

colleges will only stop doing this when their funds start going away, enrollments go down, etc., due to competition from other more conservative and Christian colleges.

From Stanford instead of a secondary source...
Stanford climate scientists forecast permanently hotter summers beginning in 20 years"We also analyzed historical data from weather stations around the world to see if the projected emergence of unprecedented heat had already begun," Diffenbaugh said. "It turns out that when we look back in time using temperature records, we find that this extreme heat emergence is occurring now, and that climate models represent the historical patterns remarkably well."
Noah Diffenbaugh, assistant professor of environmental Earth system science
And here you have one of the biggest problems facing this analysis.
Weather Stations Giving Bad Global Warming Data -- MSM MIA October 01, 2007
And it seems Noah has been down this road before...
Climate model predicts dramatic changes for US over next 100 years; NASA says warmer world may not be a wetter one Oct 22, 2005
The climate model, run on supercomputers at Purdue University, takes into account a large number of factors that have been incompletely incorporated in past studies, such as the effects of snow reflecting solar energy back into space and of high mountain ranges blocking weather fronts from traveling across them, said Noah S. Diffenbaugh, the team's lead scientist.

Yep, northern and central CA have been having a very cool, wet spring. It should be 10 to 20 degrees warmer on average, but these idiots are still screaming global warming.

Meanwhile, the largest tidewater glacier in North America is advancing at
10 feet per day. And what about this winter's
massive, record-breaking snowfall in the Rockies?
It's easy to make the weather look warm when you ignore all the cold data points.

Folks in the Mojave Desert have yet to run their home AC’s!
Usually by May 15th the AC’s run every day.
SoCal Edison is sad!
