UAH (Roy Spencer) has the December figure at +0.28C; the 4th warmest
December in that 30-year satellite series.

The other satellite measure, RSS, should be out soon.

RSS out; similar to UAH +2.43C; the 4th warmest in that 30 year series
too.

Despite the UK, W.European and Eastern USA cold, the Northern
hemisphere was not at all cold overall, being also the 4th warmest of
that 30 year series - and the RSS measurements exclude the warmer
Arctic. It just shows that the cold December here was down to
synoptics, and the cold was more than balanced by warmth in other
areas.
