During a fundraiser in Atlanta earlier this
month, President Obama is reported to have said: "It gets you a little
nervous about what is happening to global temperatures. When it is 75
degrees in Chicago in the beginning of March, you start thinking. On the
other hand, I really have enjoyed nice weather."
What
is happening to global temperatures in reality? The answer is: almost
nothing for more than 10 years. Monthly values of the global temperature
anomaly of the lower atmosphere, compiled at the University of Alabama
from NASA satellite data, can be found at the website
http://www.drroyspencer.com/latest-global-temperatures/. The latest
(February 2012) monthly global temperature anomaly for the lower
atmosphere was minus 0.12 degrees Celsius, slightly less than the
average since the satellite record of temperatures began in 1979.
