"it's the trend you have to watch."

That really is not a very scientific answer.

Inside long term trends there can be extreme up and down fluctuations.

We certainly don't have sufficient data about anomalous fluctuations to be certain of anything when it comes to weather.

We do have sufficient data to suggest that scientists being human will insert and omit data if it means they can get a plum research grant or be interviewed on morning television.
