"The U.S. government is at it again, hyping meaningless records" It's only meaningless for those who deny science. JULY was the hottest on record globally as a large El Nino event gathered strength in the Pacific, making it more likely that 2015 will exceed last year as the warmest year recorded. Average land and sea-surface temperatures worldwide were 0.38 degrees above the 1981-2010 average, easily exceeding the previous record July anomaly of 0.30 degrees set in 1998, the Japan Meteorological Agency said. The record for July is likely to be matched by other agencies in coming days, such as the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration when they release their monthly reports. If so, it will mean that five of the first seven months of 2015 have been the hottest for their respective months, and make it increasingly likely that this year will eclipse 2014 as the warmest in about 135 years of records. Preliminary data from US space agency NASA supports Japan's findings that July was the hottest for that month. theland.com.au
