The last bit of the post is interesting, in the author’s qualified opinion this heat wave would have occurred regardless of global warming, but global warming made it 2 degrees F hotter.

The anamoly causing the heat wave is independent of global warming.

Before anyone interprets that as a political stance on global warming, it is straight from the article.

It’s gonna be real hot!!

Okay, campers, rise and shine, and don't forget your booties 'cause it's cooooold out there today
