1922 Was An Extreme Weather Year

1922 set the record for the hottest temperature ever recorded. 136F in Libya. It also saw record heat in the Arctic, massive typhoons, huge floods and snowstorms. Joe Romm would have been hysterical at 310 ppm CO2.

    “Dog bites man” story:
    “SEVERE WINTER IN HUNGARY. SOLDIERS FIGHT THE WOLVES.
    Hungary is being ravaged by snow-storms and blizzards of unprecedented violence. Traffic is being held up by hordes of howling wolves seeking food and shelter and compelling the military to be called out to give battle and drive them off. Three men have been devoured.”
