2012 Saw 362 All-Time Record High Temperatures In U.S. But Zero All-Time Record Lows | ThinkProgress

This statistic is complete garbage. Essentially all of the claimed all-time record maximums occurred at stations which didn’t exist during the 1930s, which was by far the hottest decade in the US.

An apples-to-apples comparison of all stations which have been continuously active since 1920, shows that there were only three all-time record maximums set during 2012.

LEWISBURG EXP STN        TN	 USC00405187	44C
ANDERSON SEWAGE PLT      IN	 USC00120177	41C
SMITH CTR                KS	 USC00147542	45C

There was one all-time record minimum set in 2013

RIO GRANDE CITY          TX	 USC00417622   -17C

The actual ratio was 3:1, not 362:0
