Global Highlights

•The combined average temperature over global land and ocean surfaces for September 2013 tied with 2003 as the fourth highest for September on record, at 0.64°C (1.15°F) above the 20th century average of 15.0°C (59.0°F).
•The global land surface temperature was 0.89°C (1.60°F) above the 20th century average of 12.0°C (53.6°F), marking the sixth warmest September on record. For the ocean, the September global sea surface temperature was 0.54°C (0.97°F) above the 20th century average of 16.2°C (61.1°F), tying with 2006 as the fourth highest for September on record.
•The combined global land and ocean average surface temperature for the January–September period (year-to-date) was 0.60°C (1.08°F) above the 20th century average of 14.1°C (57.5°F), tying with 2003 as the sixth warmest such period on record.

It snowed here yesterday...snowed..on October 24th...in Southern Indiana.
This morning I had to scrape frost of off my window...for the 3rd time in two weeks.
It is 29 degrees right now...in October.

 

[editec]

WArmest September and October I remember in Maine in a long time.

Finally started getting cold yesterday.

Had our first truly hard frost yessterday morning.

That's about 6 weeks late, FYI.

What does all the above mean?

Nothing except what it actually says...it was a very warm pleasant early fall this year.

And you chose not to include their conclusion in your quote, because it would have popped the balloon you spent all morning to over-inflate:

This effect is related to the seasonal nature of the reintroduced time-of-observation correction. Trends in U.S. winter temperature are higher while trends in summer temperatures are lower. For the globe, ranks of individual years changed in some instances by a few positions, but global temperature trends changed no more than 0.01°C/century for any month since 1880.

Typical !
You should have learned by now that we "deniers" don`t read with "lying eyes" and just take your word(s) without further scrutiny.

 

[Abraham3]

Not lying? Then why do you call that a conclusion and why do YOU take it out of context. You pulled it from a data notice near the very beginning of this article. Here, the truth:

Note: GHCN-M Data Notice

An omission in processing a correction algorithm led to some small errors on the Global Historical Climatology Network-Monthly dataset (GHCN-M v3.2.0). This led to small errors in the reported land surface temperatures in the October, November, December and Annual U.S. and global climate reports. On February 14, 2013, NCDC fixed this error in its software, included an additional improvement (described below), and implemented both changes as GHCN-M version 3.2.1. With this update to GHCN-M, the Merged Land and Ocean Surface Temperature dataset also is subsequently revised as MLOST version 3.5.3.
The net result of this new version of GHCN-M reveals very small changes in temperature and ranks. The 2012 U.S. temperature is 0.01°F higher than reported in early January, but still remains approximately 1.0°F warmer than the next warmest year, and approximately 3.25°F warmer than the 20th century average. The U.S. annual time series from version 3.2.1 is almost identical to the series from version 3.2.0 and that the 1895-2012 annual temperature trend remains 0.13°F/decade. The trend for certain calendar months changed more than others (discussed below). For the globe, ranks of individual years changed in some instances by a few positions, but global land temperature trends changed no more than 0.01°C/century for any month since 1880.
NCDC uses two correction processes to remove inhomogeneities associated with factors unrelated to climate such as changes in observer practices, instrumentation, and changes in station location and environment that have occurred through time. The first correction for time of observation changes in the United States was inadvertently disabled during late 2012. That algorithm provides for a physically based correction for observing time changes based on station history information. NCDC also routinely runs a .pairwise correction. algorithm that addresses such issues, but in an indirect manner. It successfully corrected for many of the time of observation issues, which minimized the effect of this processing omission.
The version 3.2.1 release also includes the use of updated data to improve quality control and correction processes of other U.S. stations and neighboring stations in Canada and Mexico.
Compared to analyses released in January 2013, the trend for certain calendar months has changed more than others. This effect is related to the seasonal nature of the reintroduced time-of-observation correction. Trends in U.S. winter temperature are higher while trends in summer temperatures are lower. For the globe, ranks of individual years changed in some instances by a few positions, but global temperature trends changed no more than 0.01°C/century for any month since 1880.
More complete information about this issue is available at this supplemental page.
NCDC will not update the static reports from October through December 2012 and the 2012 U.S and Global annual reports, but will use the current dataset (GHCN-M v. 3.2.1 and MLOST v. 3.5.3) for the January 2013 report and other comparisons to previous months and years.

So the statement was talking about changes from data adjustment, not changes from global warming.

So either you're a liar or stupid. Your call.

 

[flacaltenn]

I noticed that there is shift to comparing against "20th Century averages"... What's the Deal with that nonsense? Do they not know we're nearly 14 years into the NEXT CENTURY??

And what happened to the standards of using the satellite era period from roughly 1978 (IIRC) to current year as the baseline for the "OFFICIAL TEMP ANOMALY"?

Number masturbation alert here.. Deploy the raincoats. I'm leaving. Ain't interested..
ESPECIALLY after the last round of "adjustments" make my head spin.. Why NOW?

You're in a competition with skooks for most worthless poster, aren't you.

You're in a dead heat. Really.

That would be what they call an "arbitrary reference". They could have bounced everything against the average temperature in Fargo, North Dakota between 15 June 1903 and 29 Feb 1986. Surely you can handle this.

If you want to spend the time and effort to insult the work posted here, you're more than a little obligated to back up your charges. Shootin' your mouth off and then running away is not how science gets done, is it.

Perhaps you ought to review post #5 (http://www.usmessageboard.com/envir...-tied-for-4th-warmest.html#post8051270)before) before you throw a lot of your own personal charisma behind Mr Bear.

No temperature rise in 15 years. Even the gloom and doom doctors agree that is fact.

Considering that we've all seen this graph on multiple occasions, that it has been the topic of a lengthy and heated thread and that ten seconds in Google would find its source, what's worthless here is your pointless, unjustified and deceitful attempt at a diversion. This is at least the third or fourth time you've attempted such BS with me. Have you found that it works? Does it prevent you from embarrassing revelations regarding your ignorance or the unsubstantiability of your position in this debate?

Well, Gunny, any comments?
