There just hasn't been warming overall since 1998.

Even Huffpo admits this:

"And for those for whom the UN IPCC is the last word on all things climate, Dr Madhav L. Khandekar, retired Environment Canada scientist and an expert IPCC reviewer, says, "In the Southern Hemisphere, the land-sea mean TEMPERATURE has slowly but surely declined in the last few years." He adds, "Several other locations in the Southern Hemisphere have experienced lower temperatures in the last few years" the result of "surface temperatures over world oceans slowly declining since mid-1998." Interestingly the very year the mean global TEMPERATURE itself began a decline.
....
The World Meteorlogical Organization (WMO) went to declare 2008 the coolest since 2000. Moreover, the WMO reports that the fall in the global mean TEMPERATURE since 1998 is not just affecting the polar ice caps either, it is also affecting glaciers elsewhere."

Here a post Eric posted purports to explain away the decade of cooling:

" climate skeptics/contrarians/deniers/realists (depending on who’s doing the labeling) who have made a mantra out of the “global cooling” since the 1998 peak in global TEMPERATURE.
Measured changes in global TEMPERATURE show ups and downs, with some periods of a decade or more defying the long-term trend."
