Hvor i verden var det koldt eller varmt?

Og fordeling af varmen og kulden i maj 2009:...

The combined global land and ocean surface temperature was the second warmest on record in June(+0.64°C), behind 2005, and tied with 2004 as the fifth warmest on record for the year-to-date (January-June) period.

The global ocean SST for June 2009 was the warmest on record, 0.59°C above the 20th century average of 16.4°C. This broke the previous June record set in 2005.

Above-average temperatures were observed across Africa, Australia, eastern Brazil, south central and southeastern contiguous U.S., Alaska's panhandle, western Alaska, western Canada, and most of Europe and Asia. The most notable warmer-than-average temperatures were recorded across parts of Africa and most of Eurasia, where temperatures were 3°C or more above average.

Cooler-than-average conditions were present across Scandinavia, parts of the southwestern U.S. to the Northern Plains, the northeastern U.S., the Canadian Prairie Provinces, southern South America, central Asia, and across the boundary of northeastern China and southeastern Russia.

Large portions of each inhabited continent were substantially warmer than average during July 2010, contributing to the global land-only record warmth. The areas with the most anomalous warmth were Europe, western Russia, and parts of eastern Asia. Cooler-than-average conditions were present across western Alaska, southern South America, eastern Kazakhstan, and central Russia. The worldwide land surface temperature was 1.03°C above the 20th century average—this value represented the warmest July on record, surpassing the previous record set in 1998. Meanwhile, the worldwide ocean surface temperature represented the fifth warmest July on record.

Overall, the combined global land and ocean surface temperature for July 2010 was the second warmest July—behind 1998—on record since records began in 1880. The combined global land and ocean temperature anomaly was 0.66°C above the 20th century average, falling only 0.04°C short of tying the record set in 1998.

....Over 1.600 meters højde faldt nedbøren nemlig som sne i store dele af Europa - og i Tyskland blev der sat ny kulderekord for august.

Ok! Det er da ellers ikke meget man hører til dette ISIS... surprice.

Nå, men denne August har sat rekorder for snefald i Australien

"Global Climate Disruption Brings Early Snow To Russia"

"What this means is that any unusual event–or even usual events, like walruses showing up on Alaskan beaches, which they do every year–can be called climate disruption in action, and blamed on human activity."

Tens of thousands of lambs have died over the past five days after snow and bitterly cold weather swept over the south, attracting animal welfare concerns that ewes and their offspring may have died because of a lack of shelter or food.

South Island farmers say that as many as a million lambs forecast to be born in Otago and Southland could die because of the bitterly cold conditions.
