I love validation.

However, my communist sister tried to tell me while this maybe true in the USA its not true for the rest of the world. Do we have any proof on that?

The April global temps are out for the UAH & RSS

Unlike the NOAA/GISS which use surface station data that's subject to "Hansenization" (see post 11), these readings are from Satellites

Global: +0.015
NH: + 0.170
SH: -0.140

http://www.remss.com/pub/msu/monthly_time_series/RSS_Monthly_MSU_AMSU_Channel_TLT_Anomalies_Land_and_Ocean_v03_1.txt

Global: +0.080
NH: +0.405
SH: -0.260

These numbers & the numbers at links, show that for the last six months all the so called Global Warming that has occured GLOBALLY in the past 29 years has essentially been wiped out.

[Robert A. Cook, PE]

This decline in temperatures is global.

Over the last ten years, from 1998 - 2008, there has been NO global warming.

For the last ten years, global temperatures have been declining from their El Nino-induced HIGH in 1998.

(Now, admit to her that the decline is small, about 1/10 of one degree, so overall the decade is about 2/10 of one degree hotter than it was from 1935 - 1945
