September temperature, UAH

The Version 6.0 global average lower tropospheric temperature (LT) anomaly for September 2016 is +0.44 deg. C, statistically unchanged from the August, 2016 value of +0.43 deg. C (click for full size version):

[Note that the August value of +0.43 is changed slightly from its previously reported value of +0.44. This is because inter-satellite calibrations are improved with each additional month of global data, which can change previous months’ results by several thousandths of a degree.]

Another warm month, in spite of a neutral Enso to weak La Nina.

Any actual evidence that the climate is behaving in a way other than simple natural variability?

And since you can't demonstrate that what we are seeing is anything other than natural variability...I am going to give you a second chance to win....can you state within half a degree what the ideal temperature is for life on planet earth and provide a couple of sources to support your claim.

Yep,

This year is going to be the hottest in record at the end of the day!
