Christy's colleague Roy Spencer produced a chart of TMax using the same weather stations as NOAA.

So Christy uses TMax data to estimate trends in hot weather anomalies.
TMin for the 30 long range (roughly since 1880), rural, monthly histories I sampled, demo'ed a roughly +0.35 C trend with Tmax values in the +0.65 range.
More importantly, far more all - time TMax records were set in the 1930s than in any recent decade.
Most historic data gives us mainly the daily Tmax and Tmin, recorded when thermometers designed for the purpose cause maker pegs to stop moving each day when the max or min is reached.
So, I was pondering whether Tmax might not contain all the information (trend wise) that one needs and that Tmin might not add that much «information» Tmin being more variable, and more prone to contamination from things like UHI and microsite issues
Greetings all, I don't know whether this is useful but I did a running 11 yr correlation looking for steps and outliers and have found that Tmax correlates far better than Tmin.
But since TMax isn't increasing elsewhere in the world, then there is no increase in heatwaves because of AGW.
When it comes to UHI, where typically comparisons are made between urban and rural settings, there is again nonsense in interpretations because the factors that caused a certain Tmax in the city need not be acting in a similar way at the rural setting.
Thank you for the help I've also scoured the internet looking and I've placed the question in several other forums I've even asked tmax and they've yet to respond.
Maybe TMAX will be nice enough to send you a ROM.
The effect of a putative CO2 / water photonic IR recycling system is going to depend on local Tmax / Tmin, the IR albedo and the amount of water vapor in the air.
