I hope this table comes out OK.

The cooling in December is interesting, and not just as a result of
2010!

I am seeing something quite similar. *Every decade, I compare (using
CET) the 30 year and 10 year everages. *This gives an idea how average
temperatures of the last decade compare with those of the last 30
years, and could be an early indication of trends.

Comparing 2001-2010 with 1981-2010 gives the following for each month:

January +0.37C
February +0.91C
March +0.58C
April +0.49c
May +0.29C
June +0.22C
July +0.37C
August +0.79C
Sepetember +0.38C
October +0.38C
November +0.78C
December -0.20C

You will notive that December is the only month that appears to be
getting cooler. *All of the others are warming.

Comparing the last two decades, i.e, 1991-2000 with 2001-2010, reveals
that March is also on a cooling trend.
