Some notes about this past March. Despite the lower 48 having easily the warmest March on record, globally; it was relatively cooler this past March than we've seen in the past few years. Not even a top 10 warmest month globally, the U.S. obviously had the greatest positive global anomaly, which really skewed the global temperatures in March.

What's your point?

What's your point?

I was making more of a statement than a point but I guess my point would be that global warming enthusiasts should look at the bigger picture instead of focusing on one month/one region and assume our globe is in chaos mode.

I also have questions as to why our region has specifically been so warm when other places have not, is it just perfect timing/the right setup or what?

Didn't you make the same error by only looking at one month?

The saddest sight on that map is how above normal the entire arctic/north pole appears. At least the Antarctic is mainly below.

For reference -- current global temp anomaly. Only very slightly above normal. Eastern US clearly one of the warmer regions on the globe right now (with respect to normal):

The saddest sight on that map is how above normal the entire arctic/north pole and Greenland appear including Alaska and Extreme Northeastern Russia (actually most of Russia). At least the Antarctic is mainly below normal w/ few hot spots.
