*In 1878, [[San Francisco]] meteorologists were freaking out about the shifting of rain seasons.<ref>{{Cite news |date=1878-12-28 |title=The Season |pages=2 |work=The Fresno Republican |url=https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-fresno-republican-climate-change/66218291/ |access-date=2023-06-17}}</ref> In spite of this, general precipitation trends have remained relatively consistent in both monthly proportion and yearly variation.<ref>{{Cite web |title=CLIMATE OF SAN FRANCISCO MONTHLY RAINFALL 1849-PRESENT |url=https://ggweather.com/sf/monthly.html |access-date=2023-06-17 |website=ggweather.com}}</ref>

*In 1879, ''The Republic'' of Indiana issued a response to another climate change piece that had been publicized in newspapers, discussing anecdotal evidence that the climate is shifting for the worse. One evidence they cite is that sugar trees were no longer in full bloom by the first week of April.<ref>{{Cite news |date=1879-05-23 |title=Why Our Climate Has Changed |pages=1 |work=The Republic |url=https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-republic-climate-change-1879-indiana/94340905/ |access-date=2023-06-17}}</ref> Fortunately, this has not changed, despite their claims. Sugar trees across the midwest still bloom between late March to mid-May.<ref>{{Cite web |title=UWL Website |url=http://bioweb.uwlax.edu/bio203/2010/schoenfu_aman/reproduction.htm |access-date=2023-06-17 |website=bioweb.uwlax.edu}}</ref>

*In 1880, newspapers claimed that manmade activity has contributed to the development of tornadoes in [[Kansas]].<ref>{{Cite news |date=1880-09-22 |title=Climate Changes |pages=1 |work=Pickens County Herald and West Alabamian |url=https://www.newspapers.com/article/pickens-county-herald-and-west-alabamian/13690595/ |access-date=2023-06-18}}</ref> This notion is heavily misguided, as tornadoes have been a large part of Kansan geography since before European settlement, with the first Kansan tornado documented by settlers in the 17th century.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2019-10-14 |title=Frontier Tornadoes |url=https://www.notesfromthefrontier.com/post/frontier-tornadoes |access-date=2023-06-18 |website=Frontier |language=en}}</ref>
