July through September of 1881 saw the hottest temperature on record in Europe and in parts of the US, including Washington DC (h/t to AndyDC.) HadCRUT shows those three months as being among the coolest on record.
We also know that glaciers at both poles were rapidly melting during the coldest period in the HadCRUT record, and rapidly forming during the 1960s and 1970s. Phil Jones admitted that his error is half a degree, which comprises the entire trend.

There is no legitimacy to the global warming movement. It is based on garbage data from garbage political activists posing as scientists.
Steven,
It appears that September 1881 still stands as DC’s hottest September on record. It was almost 6 degrees warmer than the 2nd warmest September during the period from 1871-1900. July was around normal and August was was a little above the normal of that time.
October 1881 was 2nd warmest on record at that time and there wouldn’t be another October that hot again for 60 years (1941).
The autumn (September, October, November) was easily the warmest on record in 1881. That record would not be broken for 50 years (1931).
Steve, can I have you email address if you want me to scan/forward the data, or any other data in the future?
Thanks,
Andy
Gentlemen, gentlemen; referring USA, or European temperature as GLOBAL is the precursor off all evil; from both camps! Temperature on different places gets warmer / colder all the time; but to get warmer, or colder on the WHOLE planet cannot happen, because the laws of physics and my formulas don’t permit that.
If is warmer than normal on one hemisphere – on the other hemisphere INSTANTLY gets colder than normal. Unfortunately, Skeptics are giving oxygen to the Warmist, with their short-sightedness. If the truth is known; would be the end of the propaganda in few months. There is no such a thing as warmer or colder years on the WHOLE planet – will not be in 100y from now. Because same laws of physics will be in 2100 as they are today. Constantly pointing warmer / colder planet by the Skeptics is music in Warmist’ ears. Think about it.
The proofs exist; needs presenting the ”alternative”. Constantly blaming / ridiculing Al Gore / IPCC; people on the street are interpreting it as: only behind a good horse is a lot off dust. The alternative / real proofs are on my website
