A pesky little problem for global warming alarmists is that nature simply does not cooperate with their models. In order to solve this problem nature, or at least the public's perception of nature, must be modified to fit the rhetoric. How to accomplish this?

The general public has little or no interest in historical weather and climate data. They assume that the "experts" are following accepted scientific practices in gathering, archiving and analyzing data. I've offered evidence many times in the past that show the raw data is gone, that the data used in the major archives is fudged and that the whole modeling process and every study that uses these data sets is corrupted by GIGO.

The latest example I am presenting here is so blatantly falsified, so catastrophically incorrect that I defy anyone to justify the error as a simple mistake and not an obvious, coordinated and purposeful fraud.

The link below contains the graphs mentioned in the text.

Eureka, in Nunavut Canada, is a very special meteorological station. As can be seen in the first image above, it is responsible for the very big stripe on the very top of Canada. As can be seen on the second image, the data from only one station is responsible for a very big percentage of global temperatures... Both graphs can be obtained here.

So, one would imagine that data for this station is quality proof. But that was not the idea I got when I found out about Arctic heat. We found two sources for temperature data: at Weather Underground and at the National Climate Data and Information Archive.

The first interesting data about this station is it's record high temperature, which according to Wikipedia was reached on July 14, 2009, with 20ºC. On Weather Underground, the page for that day does say that 20ºC was the maximum temperature. But when you check the METAR data, the maximum temperature was 14ºC. Checking the Environment Canada page, the maximum for the date was 14.4ºC. Things were different on the day before, July 13th. Maximum temperature for Weather Underground was also 20ºC, while at Environment Canada was 19.6ºC. But if you check the graphs below, some special heat occurred at 10PM, when temperatures soared some 15ºC!
