2014 set to be world's hottest year ever

The world is on course for the hottest year ever in 2014, the United Nations weather agency said on Wednesday, heightening the sense of urgency around climate change negotiations underway in Lima.

Preliminary estimates from the World Meteorological Organisation (WMO) found global average land and sea surface temperatures for the first 10 months of 2014 had soared higher than ever recorded.

I heard many people talking about how hot it was this past summer. These same people also work in an office and the only time they are outside is from the house, to the mailbox, to the car. It was around 100F for only about two weeks and the rest was fairly pleasant. If they worked in a place without air conditioning they would have known that. :P

The seven day forecast says it's supposed to get to 5 C (41 F) next week. That's never happened in the middle of December in my 50 year old memory.

(I live in central B.C., Canada.)

So far, next year that record could change. That's what's really scary. Seems to do that a lot this past decade or so.

December will have to average 0.55 degrees C above the baseline. It has done that five times since 1998. That's a one-in-three chance.

Take advantage of the warm weather while you can. Make hay while the sun shines, as the saying goes.

That would be because ?

Are you a new ice age proponent ?

No. Harness the sun. Befriend it.
