Warming context for Pomona/fairplex

Methodology

Since 1900, U.S. land temperatures have tracked (and diverged from) the global mean - the chart below shows how. Pomona/fairplex's current NOAA 1991-2020 normal sits within that longer spread, and the most recent decade runs warmer than the 30-year mean.
