Warmest December on record in Phoenix!
Overall average temperature of 63.2Β° breaks the previous record set just last year of 62.3Β°.
Why? It's a combination of warming from greenhouse gases, our expanding urban heat island and La NiΓ±a.

Trump administration plans to break up largest federal climate research center
Russ Vought, director of the White House Office of Management and Budget, said the National Science Foundation "will be breaking up" the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Colorado.
βNCAR has played a greater role in advancing weather prediction & atmospheric modeling than perhaps any other single entity in the world,β says @weatherwest.bsky.social
Dismantling NCAR would be βlike taking a sledgehammer to the keystone holding up our scientific understanding of the planet.β KH
