Ah! But Roy Spencer has pointed out that parts of N.America are having below average temperatures. Neither has any relevance to GW warming whatsoever (I realise you made no connection, Graham) but 2014 is likely to be a year that extends the trend of G(lobal!)W warmth.

Indeed, it was the warmest October ever recorded by AEMet and 0.7C above the previous highest
(1995). Some areas were more than 4C above normal.

Also of note was the continuing lack of rain in the eastern part of the country, including the
Mediterranean coast, with many areas there recording less than 25% of their normal rainfall.

Some rain to come this month though with cold fronts. Drizzle by our
standards, but rain nevertheless.

Yes, the change of month has brought a sharp fall in temperature and much less settled weather,
with a series of fronts crossing the country, which looks set to continue for at least another
week.

However, with all the weather coming from the west, rainfall amounts in the east (especially on
the coast) have been slight.
