But I also sometimes cycle through to show comparison of absolute temperature anomalies to projections temperature anomalies using the baseline the authors of the IPCC AR1 selected when illustrating projections. That is: I show how temperature anomalies would appear if super-imposed [...]

Hadley is the final agency to report their June ’09 temperature anomaly: 0.503C Comparing to previous temperature anomalies: This is up 0.105C since May ’09′s anomalie of 0.398C. (In June, May’s anomaly was reported as 0.400C.) This almost 0.2C higher than June ’08′s anomaly of 0.307C. This the third hottest June anomaly, exceeded only by [...]
