Crikey! Have we been keeping temperature records for all of 42 years? Wow!


It's the UAH satellite record. You know. Those whirly things that fly
around up there.


So, it might not be the 2nd warmest year at all!


It's the second warmest in a 42-year record, as Paul clearly stated at
the start. Why do you have a problem with that? Yes, if the record was
longer, it's possible that more warmer years might be found.
