Hood was frosty

Oil is higher in canola around home which is within reach of the wind turbines. Obviously they help keep things cooler and therefore canola didn’t have such heat stress and the oil is higher.

Yay for wind turbines!

Has to be true, after all, this has turned into a global warming thread, and the global warming proponents insist that correlation always implies causation. Except when it is inconvenient.

micro climates do not just happen within city limits. My farmyard always is 1-2 degrees colder than the neighbors on either side. I will have frost when neither do. Ever drive past a valley and see fog in it but nowhere else? You been to lakes, have you noted evening and morning freezes near a lakeshore do to the temperture difference between water and ground? Your own farm yard will likely differ from your fields, especially if there are shelterbelts, building etc. So what if it was warmer in the city if it is consistantly warmer in the city. The only backward one is the person who thinks microclimates are strictly an urban phenomena

Agree but you are missing the point completely, or simply ignoring it . Absolutely temps are different in many areas on calm nights / mornings . That h

Why it important? Temps used it artificially warm areas like urban micro climates are being used as a basses for global warming. As never changed in thousands of years .
Was simply pointing out that fact . Taking temps from areas that represent a fraction of the area . Whats the big panic , 2c and the world will end from the climate cult ?
Easy to cherry pick data that does not represent 98% of the land mass around it .

It all ends up skewing the average temps , and by 1.5c ..... obviously not hard to do .

It would be manipulation if they continually moved weather stations but if they use the same station in the same location year after year for decades it will reflect if change is happening. Just because it disagrees with your micro climate temps is irrelevant. Likely would
get same rate of change if your station was used long term

Except if that same location becomes encircled by pavement, city heat and airplane exhaust. Then it is not in the ‘same’ location.
