Dr. Roy posted the April UAH anomaly: 0.501C. Congratulations to PEHarvey who predicted the closest value of 0.500C, but only bet 1 Quatloo. This left plenty of quatloos to divide among the other top placers.

Lucia: Are our accounts held at the Bank of Triskelion?
What interest rate are they earning?
jack–I hadn’t thought of interest. Should I apply the interest to debts too?
So close…
Lucia: I guess to be fair you should charge interest on our Quatloo deficits. What is the current exchange rate BTW?
To learn, you’ll have to attend a Trekkie convention and ask.
lucia, can you post old UAH and new one please?
the change really makes any comparison difficult.
Sod–
Do you mean last months UAH? I’ll be posting plots later on.
Congrats to PEHarvey…..I could have sworn that my prediction was 0.58 (C) not zero…….Not that it would have saved or won me any Quatloos. ; )
Beginner’s luck. I won the first and the third time that I bet. Apparently, I was a bit too cautious with my Quatloos. I was less cautious in my lab days.

… yet so far! (0.601)

Before you start charging interest, you should know that I’m very good friends with an attorney general who’s looking for a climate stable that needs cleaning…
The difference between glorious victory and the bitter ashes of defeat is only 0.009C! That is too tough a game for me.
FWIW, I can’t run ccc-gistemp for 2010-04 yet, because the SST files won’t be available until tomorrow, and also because the GHCN dataset seems to have been taken down from the NOAA FTP site, possibly in preparation for an update.
v2.mean is back on the NOAA FTP site; I’ll try running ccc-gistemp in the morning.
I’m at a conference, so no time to post more than this:

Thanks Nick! That’s quite a drop. (Of course, the year so far is still roaring hot!)
Yes, back to January’s temperature. Still warmest April on record, and warmer than any month in 2009, and a 12-month average of +0.6525 K.
