I see you couldn't tell that your number for 2016 was lower than UCAR/NCAR's for 2015.

You said the average global temp for 2016 was 58.69 F.

Message 31093249

But NCAR/UCAR says the average global temp for 2015 was 59.0 F (57.2 + 1.8).

... the average annual temperature for the globe between 1951 and 1980 was around 57.2 degrees Fahrenheit (14 degrees Celsius). In 2015, the hottest year on record, the temperature was about 1.8 degrees F (1 degree C) warmer than the 1951–1980 base period.

So why did the global average temp fall from 2015 to 2016?
