Daveman is absolutely correct.. It is a MONTHLY record that has to be taken into context of AT LEAST the first 6 months of 2013.. If 2013 LOOKED like it was gonna break the lull in the warming -- we would have had front page news displacing the Zimmerman trial...
Anyone what to run those 6 numbers? Preferably using THIS...
No wonder Doc Hansen doesn't like his own satellite science at NASA anymore....
Really dumb comments by really dumb people. No warming since 1998? Look at the 0.3 bar. Not even the warmest months prior to 1998 reached it, let alone the running average. And since the 1998 spike we have had at least 27 months at or above 0.3.
In fact, if you look at the running average, it never reached 0.1 prior to 1998. In fact, prior to 1998, the running average was mostly between -0.1 and -0.3. And between 1998 and present, it has been between 0.1 and 0.4 most of the time.
The last La Nina was a strong one, yet the most it could depress the running average was down to 0.1. That on a low TSI.
