[CC] October warms up. 2nd warmest on record globally.
 

GISS temperatures have just arrived,

This October had an anomaly of +0.99C above the 1951-80 average. This
makes it the second warmest October since 2015 which saw an anomaly of
+1.08C.This would put it +1.19C above the pre-industrial average
according to the Met Office (and IPCC). However, I feel the true figure
is closer to +1.39C due to the selection of the baseline well after the
start of the Industrial Revolution and other differences in data.

The 12-month mean (Nov-Oct) is the 3rd highest at +0.83C behind 2016 at
+1.03C and 2017 at 0.90C.

This recent jump in temperatures is probably due to the currently
developing El Nino event.

I'll update my graphs shortly, probably tomorrow.

Or even today! Well, one of them anyway; the PDO isn't in yet.
