In the last 130 years of NASA's Northern Hemisphere record, July was
7th warmest.

Would you trust anyone who said, "It was cosmic rays, not
airplanes, which brought down the World Trade Center towers?"
NO! You'd trust them as much as someone who said, "The
warming was due to Anything But Carbon Dioxide!" This
group is full of ABCD cheerleaders; don't trust them.

The Mean July temperature over the last 130 years is 14.075 C.
The Variance is 0.08904.
The Standard Deviation, or SIGMA, is 0.2984.

TEMP = 13.713542 + (0.005524 * (YEAR-1879))
Degrees of Freedom = 128 F = 119.424211
Confidence of nonzero correlation = approximately

The month of July in the year 2009,
is linearly projected to be 14.432,
yet it was 14.67. - 0.8 SIGMA above the trend, so
the warming continues to accelerate.
The sum of the absolute errors is 22.76667

Equal weight exponential least squares fit:
TEMP = 13.717337 * e^(.0003935 * (YEAR-1879))
The sum of the absolute errors is 22.701585

The most recent 154 continuous months, or 12 years and 10 months,
on this NH.Ts.txt data set are all above the 1951-1980
data set norm of 14 C.
There are 1555 months of data on this data set:
-- 800 of them are at or above the norm.
-- 755 of them are below the norm.

This run of 154 months above the norm is the result of a warming
world. It is too large to occur by chance at any reasonable level
of confidence. A major volcano eruption, thermonuclear war, or
meteor impact could stop this warming trend for a couple of years,
otherwise expect it to continue.
