December 2023 became the seventh consecutive month to set a new highest monthly record. Again it did it by another large margin in my DIYDIY Do It Yourself Global temperature series. The December mean 0f 0.53°C was 0.16°C higher than the previous warmest December in 2015. The question I wonder about is what happens to the meteoric rise when it comes full circle this June?
Currently the latest daily global mean I’ve calculated for the 31st of December is still out on it’s own in record breaking territory.
