Global Temperature

Here’s how the six leading monthly global temperature series compare in Autumn of 2022. Don’t forget these are estimated anomalies, and only three of the six series use the same base 30 year long-term average. The graph displays a 12 month running average of these anomalies. As you can see from 2017 there have been two pronounced dips in the average, and we might even be seeing the start of a third. A lot of people think this is the result of a triple la NinaLa Niña La Niña is an oceanic and atmospheric phenomenon that is the colder counterpart of El Niño, as part of the broader El Niño–Southern Oscillation climate pattern.

If you calculate a linear tend for the last thirty years since 1992, that slope if far steeper, in fact the Earth is warming at +0.217°C per decade, and the date for reaching the magic 1.5°C is just over 12 years away in January 2035.
