The Global Average Temperature (GAT) anomaly rose 0.07°C in July. The GAT anomaly now stands at +0.28°C.
The table below shows that the Southern Hemisphere and the Tropics rose from their readings in June. NOAA says:
“The most recent model forecasts indicate a high probability that the sea surface temperature in the Niño3.4 region will remain at least slightly above average through winter of 2017-18. “
The above is a model prediction, after all. I note a slight drop in the ENSO Meter so I suspect that the GAT will continue its downward trend, though maybe not as fast as I had anticipated
