Both NOAA and NASA has January through September of this year as the hottest January through September on record.

And now there is a very huge hurricane that is about to strike Mexico.

So would you be satisfied with a stasis in temperatures?
Or is it supposed to be getting colder?

Was it?
Seemingly warmer being more interesting than colder due to omission of latter.
Seems like the geologic record disputes the rather narrow calendar for your"record" factoid. Or is this like just the BCS Era of temperature months?

Nice article (and beautiful video) on how scientists are studying the melting of the Greenland ice sheet. http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2015 ... .html?_r=0

Don't make trouble for our good citizens in Greenland Brad. Some good areas for mining have been opening up and we want to see this continue. We could also see areas opening up to some farming.
