Incomplete science reporting, actually.

Every year, there are a certain number of record highs, and a certain number of record lows. That 3,215 number isn't useful unless compared to the number of record lows. I couldn't find that for June, but over the course of the year so far:

According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, America has broken more than 40,000 high temperature records in comparison to fewer than 6,000 low temperature records. In total, 3,215 daily high temperature records were set in the month of June alone.
No individual weather event can be directly tied to global warming, but the aggregate can.
