" During the June 2011-June 2012 period, each of the 13 consecutive months ranked among the warmest third of their historical distribution for the first time in the 1895-present record. The odds of this occurring randomly is 1 in 1,594,323. " I have already posted to you the reasons why the data they have is suspect. Add to that the fact that they have manipulated the data as brumar has documented several times on the thread and NOAA has as much credibility as Eric Holder. Lastly, I suspect that something is wrong with the calculations. If I did my math right they have 217 years of records, or 2,604 months 1/3 is 864 months. That simply means that the last thirteen months fell into the top 864 months, that doesn't sound so strange to me. Of course they made a statement, we don't know their methodology so I can't comment further. lj
