December 2025 was the 5th warmest December since records began in 1850, with an anomaly of +1.05°C above the C20th baseline : https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/access/monitoring/monthly-report/g...

January 2026 was the 5th warmest January since records began in 1850, with an anomaly of +1.12°C above the C20th baseline: https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/news/global-climate-202601

The anomaly for the first two weeks of February 2026 was greater still, at +1.69°C. Perhaps the last few days have been incredibly cold, but until then we were on course for it to be the third warmest February in recorded history.

I live in parts that in this map https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/sites/default/files/inline-images/... are marked as cooler than average.

You were talking about "global warming" in a thread explicitly discussing how "Earth is warming".

Variations in regional weather are something else entirely.
