In 1946, there were cherry blossoms in Washington DC by March 15
This year they are facing record March snow. Not surprising that the team wanted to remove the “1940’s blip.”
Disrupting the Borg is expensive and time consuming!

Here in New Mexico there was a different kind of blip in the 1940s. The amount of water in Elephant Butte Lake suddenly increased to maximum capacity.
The storage history of Elephant Butte shows that warmer global temps are correlated with wetter conditions in NM, while cooler global temps are correlated with dryer conditions. From that I’d say that there was an increase in warming going on in the 40s.
Also the current permanent drought in NM pales in comparison the the previous permanent drought that lasted for 30 years from 1950-1980.

I was born in New Mexico in the 1950’s during a terrible drought. By the 1960’s, it was very wet – with rain every summer afternoon.
It never dawned on the climate geniuses that the ‘blip’ was because it was actually warm. Occam’s razor and all that.
