I understand your point. Research has shown that the global averages are warming largely due to less low nighttime low temps rather than higher daytime high temps. But some time ago rodney misstated that fact by declaring "global warming happens mostly at night" which is as wrong as it is humerous.
Global warming obvioulsy happens 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The result appears to be higher nightime lows and increased cloud cover during the day - in general moderating what might otherwise be much higher temps, greatly accelerated global warming and more severe impact on man and wildlife.
What we know is that we have a global system that is wobbling - we don't know exactly why and we don't know exactly what it means for life on earth. There are those who obfuscate this reality on both sides. Rodney hollers holy hell about the "environmental extremists" then turns right around and produces equally absurd assertions, completely backed up of course with his "Statistical Analysis" 
Reminds me of the time he claimed his high school class "proved" left wing bias in the press! Only from the mind of rodney!
