Surprise: India’s Doomy 52.9C “Record Temperature” Was Off By 3C

News organizations which have joined the doomsday Cult of Climastrology were super happy to boldly report on the initial 52.9C reading, often on the front page. Now that it turned out to be a lie, er, sorry, and “error” (meaning they got caught), most outlets are ignoring this or burying the reporter

Delhi’s record 52.9C temperature reading was wrong by three degrees, India says

A record temperature registered this week for the capital New Delhi of 52.9 degree Celsius (127.22 Fahrenheit) was too high by 3 C, the Indian government said on Saturday, blaming a weather sensor error.

The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) had investigated Wednesday’s reading by the weather station at Mungeshpur, a densely packed corner of Delhi, “and found a 3°C sensor error”, Earth Sciences Minister Kiren Rijiju said.

“Corrective measures are now in place,” the minister said, sharing the conclusion of a draft report about the all-time high reading on social media platform X. He did not give a corrected figure for Wednesday’s temperature.

The IMD said in a statement that the maximum temperature reported by the Mungeshpur weather station “is not correct due to malfunctioning of the sensor”.

See? It was just an error. No big deal. It’s not like there are tons of errors in the gathering of data, right? It’s not like there were articles about Doom all over, right?

    Wow, I had not even seen the 52.9°C story.3°C

    So it was only 122°F there. Got it.

    Mr Teach implies it wasn’t an error but a deliberate exaggeration.

    Anyway, Reuters corrected the error.
