The global temperature has risen to a record for a 12-month period, according to Nasa.
The analysis undermines the case made by climate sceptics, who have used the slight cooling trend in recent years to argue that man-made emissions are not causing global warming.
The average surface temperature for the year to the end of April was about 0.65 of a degree Celsius (1.17 degree Fahrenheit) higher than the 1951 to 1980 average, according to Nasa’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies. That makes it a fraction warmer than the previous peak detected by Nasa in 2005.
The Nasa study said: “We conclude that there has been no reduction in the global warming trend of 0.15-0.20°C/decade that began in the late 1970s.”

In the Southeast of England the summer months have been quite cooler and the winters much colder and more prolonged since 2006. The weather seems to be normal now, reminds me of my childhood throughout the 80’s.
