It took a lot of time to dig up data (two of my biggest hobbies are mountains and weather), but I revised and expanded the Fact Sheet Interesting Weather Statistics for US Mountain Summits:


http://www.summitpost.org/interesting-weather-statistics-for-us-mountain-summits/171585


In addition to previous weather data on several US Mountaintops (including Pikes Peak and some wind stats for Longs Peak, Mt Washington, Denali, White Mountain 2, etc.), added were a Mt Spokane in eastern Washington; Mount Fanny in the Blue Mountains of Oregon; White Mountain Peak in the White Mountains of California; Mount Baldy in the Wasatch Range in Utah; Blowhard Mountain in southwest Utah, not far from Zion National Park; Berthoud and Fremont passes as well as Mount Evans, all in Colorado; Grandfather Mountain and Mount La Conte in the Southern Appalachians; Haleakala on Maui in Hawaii; and Mount Locke in Texas.


I hope that you find it interesting.

records from the 50's and 60's to current are hardly material in the grand scheme.

show us temperature data from 1,000,000 years ago to present and lets talk.

you apparently don't recall the global cooling disaster of the 70's.

many chicken littles looking for free government money.

I'm gonna go waaaay out on a limb and suggest we see a cooling within the next 100 years....

I'll even go further out on a limb and say the amount of agw is directly related to administrations and which "scientist" they prefer to use/pay.

should be seeing reduced #'s soon:roflol:

What are you talking about? :ne_nau:

The post had nothing to do with climate change or global warming. In fact none of the information in the charts could even be used for discussing climate change since the periods of records are so different for each chart and there is no separation of temperatures from year to year

This post had absolutely nothing to do with climate change.

Did you even look at it or were you just assuming it had to do with climate change?

gotta admit--I went to the period of record and missed the charts intent:cool2:
