		<description><![CDATA[I bet it has nothing to do with the strong La Nina from Feb and April (there is a time lag in the earth&#039;s system) and the fact we are the low of sunspot cycle with no to hardly any for 2 years, the low activity is notable and the overall intensity of the trough is the lowest since 1990.

Also March 2008 by NOAA was the second hottest ever and the hottest over land despite these doubled cooling influences.

Also the globe is the whole globe not a single tomato plant, in May here we where 6C above normal and Asia and parts of the Arctic are severla degrees above normal.

Nino conditions have gone neutral and most likely to be EL Nino later this year or early next year, and the NAO is in a negative phase which will encourage the arctic ice melt and as it is 90%  (NSIDC) likely that we have a new arctic sea low this year with all that extra heat absorbed due to albedo conditions, wouldn&#039;t be surprised to see those global temepratures to reveal the actual warming again soon.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It is currently 25 degrees F below the temperature recorded last year at 6:45 PM in Enterprise, Oregon.  All those tomato plants are jus&#039; sittin there.  Fortunately I love fried green tomatoes.  There will be plenty in the valley come fall because none of them will be able to ripen to the red stage.  I also love green tomato salsa, spiced with hot peppers, onion, and garlic.  Mix in an avocado (if they will even be available this fall), and you&#039;ve got some good stuff to go along with warmed tortilla chips!  Salty marguaritta anyone?  Cuz we are gonna need the HEAT, and a drink that cools the lips but warms the innerds!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Right now it is 17 degrees colder than last year.  Friday could bring valley wide freezing to several gardens in this remote corner of Oregon.   And more snow in the Blue and Wallowa Mountains all week, with some at pass level near Tollgate.  This kind of stuff happened in the 50&#039;s.  Prior to that, in 1878, my great-grandfather decided to settle in the Wallowa Valley when the Blue&#039;s experienced such a fall through spring blizzard that no one could get to the Willamette Valley along the Oregon Trail all winter long.]]></description>

The note at the bottom is incorrect in referencing Fahrenheit.

&lt;b&gt;REPLY: that is what UAH put on as a caption, not my error.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

There is no error whatsoever.

Drs. Christy and Braswell created a robust, near real-time, highly dynamic and widely published graph for &lt;b&gt;our convenience&lt;/b&gt;.  As if that weren&#039;t enough, they also (apparently manually) add a text box to the graph daily to help readers understand what they&#039;re being shown.

And then someone comes along and &lt;i&gt;complains&lt;/i&gt; that the (manual) text box is in Fahrenheit while the y-axis is in &quot;degrees Celcius&quot; [sic].

This shallow-thinking reminds me of when I would perform advanced calculations in Excel, but would have to use &quot;precision as displayed&quot; because invariably some yahoo whose only expertise is the ability to add numbers would complain.]]></description>
