Be interesting to see what they say about April!!! Here in PA the local "experts" are saying it -- so far -- is the coldest on record!

LOL. Are you really that misguided/brainwashed/stupid? Its an absolute temp, taken once an hour, 3 feet off the ground in shade. The spot never moves. It is taken every 15 minutes(in some cases once a 1/2 hr or per hr) for 24 hours, 365 days a year, year after year after year!
Period. I realize you want to sound "scientific", but your quote above clearly demonstrates your ignorance on the subject. Try again, doc.
Where is THIS SPOT?
All that data tells us is average temp for that spot. Can be many, many reasons why THAT SPOT experiences fluctuations in temps, which do not mirror nor reflect changes elsewhere.
Really? Just ONE spot? Wow! That doesn't even begin to measure up....well, in fact the sampling error alone would render that data....trying to find a word that means like "a gazillion things wrong."
That can't be right. Probably there are thousands of such SPOTS worldwide where temps are being monitored. Even 1,000 spots would have a HUGE sampling error. So, it's probably 10s of thousands of spots.
How many data points to they take out in the West where cities are remote? How close are these data points to urban centers (and thus influenced by the urban heat effect)? Are cities expanding closer to these measurement SPOTS so as to expose the SPOTS to a greater amount of the urban heat effect over time? How many temperature spots do they have for the oceans? What about at different elevations (including in the Rockies)? How do you account for "elevation" factors? If the measurement spots are not equidistant from each other, how is "averaging" taking into account the distance between measurement spots? When you receive all this data, how do you determine which of the data is good and which data is misreported?
These questions barely scratch the surface of the problems of determining an average global/hemispheric temperature. Are YOU really that misguided/brainwashed/stupid? Are YOU the one trying to sound scientific?

Finally..real proof of global warming

GLOBAL WARMING IS AN ABSOLUTE MYTH...A COMPLETE SHAM...TOTAL BOVINE SCATUM.
I'm an asshole! What's your excuse?
Wow! Exactly where is this magic "spot" that never moves??
In 1970 there were about 15,000 surface measuring stations. Many have been discarded and fallen into disrepair. By 2000, the number had fallen to less than 5000. Most remaining ones ae in highly populated urban areas. Most of those lost were in rural areas. Under the best of conditions the surface coverage is very spotty and very clustered.
There is no "magic" place to record an average temperature for the earth. And there is no way to accurately CALCULATE an "average global temperature."
Alta, please go back and read my post of April 10 (#1556) in this thread and get a grip on just how sparsely deficient our measuring systems really are.
Bill I don't confuse us with facts. Algore and Hollywood say the numbers are good.
If we could just figure out a way to control the animal farts...
Maddawg, you talking about me and my high fiber diet?
