There's been no warming in a month, and sea level is rising in Miami. That's why they're spending all that money on puimps and such.

November GISS down by only 0.01° on record October.

November GISS down by only 0.01° on record October. As reader David Sanger noted November GISS global average is out, at 1.05°C anomaly. That would be the hottest in the record, if they had not increased October to 1.06°C. The late rise in Oct is not unexpected, since as Olof noted, Brazil and Greenland came in late and relatively warm. TempLS Oct went up too.

Most of the indices now agree on a very slight reduction from October to November. TempLS mesh is down 0.035°C; the NCEP/NCAR index was down about 0.05°. TempLS grid was down 0.01°C, and even the troposphere indices from satellite showed a similar small drop. TempLS mesh and GISS are generally more sensitive to polar changes, which were not large this time.

In other news, December is looking very warm indeed, in the NCEP/NCAR index. I had earlier written about a huge peak in early October, which made October a record month by a great margin. The peak of recent days is much larger again, almost reaching 1°C (1994-2013 base) and staying there for several days, though the latest reading was down to a mere 0.&°C. The average for December so far stands at 0.794°C, 0.23°C higher than October's record.

Even the sea ice is responding. Both Arctic and Antarctic are well down.

Here is the GISS map of anomalies, from here:



This time, it's looking warm everywhere. That confirms my observation from the TempLS breakdown that this month major regions contributed almost equally to the average. The TempLS spherical harmonics map from that report is quite similar:



Again, if you want graphics detail on the station temperatures, it's in this WebGL map.
