Hot July brings global warming back to trend

Wow, this month I can't gloat over at the Gaurdian (sic).  The global temps have zoomed up to trend, even though that trend is below that extrapolated for carbon warming.  But enough about that, this was a hot summer, which I enjoyed tremendously.

Ice volume just slid down the normal summer decline.  It can only cross lanes (become thicker) at the seasonal turn.

I can only surmise that the lack of major ocean currents has allowed 'default weather', which is just the hot sun.  But I'm happy, let's see how we do from now on. 

If I put on my gloomy pants, I still see a major plunge in temps.  And this is the only way to expose the bad physics.
