it should follow the same trend ...
Are you suggesting that lil ol Anderson SC is a microclimate unto itself ?

I prefer ugly women for my global warming information, therefore John Kerry and Al Gore are my go-to sources.

So we are basically one degree Celsius warmer than the coldest era of the last 10k years? There's a reason the climate cultists propaganda charts always start in 1880. If those charts started a few thousand years earlier their chart, meant to fleece morons, would look much less alarming. Can't show that to the rubes though can we?

Sure, I will interpret it. It's anecdotal data, from a single spot on planet

Earth, that you have provided in an attempt to make a blanket statement on climate change.
How'd I do?
Here's Columbia, fwiw.
https://www.extremeweatherwatch.com/cities/columbia/highest-temperatures
Personally, I tend to take issue with the heat island effect when it comes to historical temperatures. As cities add millions of metric tonnes of concrete and asphalt, and glass buildings, etc. over the decades, that keeps the city warmer at night, and hotter in the day. We all see this at Clemson football games when we go into Memorial Stadium on an 88 degree day. It's warm, but not HOT in the parking lots. Go inside that stadium, and even in the shade the temperature is much higher than at the Oconee airport.
Sea temps and ice are far better metrics, as they're not polluted by humans concentrating heat-trapping materials nearby, and removing heat from millions of square feet of offices, and homes, plus having industries that produce heat. Furthermore, with air conditioning, we actually take heat OUT of buildings and release it outside. In a huge city like NY or LA, that's millions of square feet of HEAT, that's transferred outside, to cool the buildings and living areas inside. This also adds to the ambient heat of cities.

Man controls my temperature. It's a balmy, dry, 72 degrees here

And a couple of thousand square feet are also that temperature. My house doesn't spontaneously create heat out of thin air in the winter, and it doesn't create cool air in the summer either. Heat comes in in the winter, I import it. I export it outside the summer. My winter heat comes from burning natural gas, or from burning coal, or a hydroelectric ### nearby, with a little help from solar and nuclear reactions, and the Sun of course. In the summer, I use the same heat-generated energy to expel heat from my home, thereby cooling it. An AC doesn't cool air, it removes heat. That's all we can do. Heat is constant.
Heck, if I eat too much bad food, my own metabolism makes it feel hotter, demanding even more heat removal, either from more AC or me sweating more. This is one factor wholly overlooked by most. The energy level of the food you consume, the calories and your metabolism, produce heat. This is why fat people have heat strokes more and skinny people handle heat better.
There are too many variables to make blanket statements, one way, or the other. That's my point.

Gotdang. That’s grandparent temperature. All you need is the TV blasting Morley Safer at full blast to complete my childhood grandparent experience.

Have to be fair and balanced...it's meaningless in terms of any conclusions or even hints about climate change.

Climate change happens. Always has. Always will. The earth is continually evolving and changing. Always has. Always will. We stupid humans expect the earth and natural environment to respect our calendars. It doesn't. Never has. Never will. Climate change is 100% a thing.
The controversy is this - are humans responsible for it, or not? I don't think so. Volcanoes and other natural disasters do far more damage, er, create more change, than humans. Besides, if we're just another animal, then aren't we just another part of the environment, anyway?
The myth that humans can substantively determine the earth's climate is the epitome of arrogance. The earth preceded us, and it will be around long after mankind.
