In fact, according to Jason Samenow of the Capital Weather Gang, 2015 will most likely be the warmest year on record by a wide margin.\u00a0 You can read his comments at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/news\/capital-weather-gang\/wp\/2015\/11\/18\/2015-will-be-the-warmest-year-on-record-by-an-enormous-margin\/\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/news\/capital-weather-gang\/wp\/2015\/11\/18\/2015-will-be-the-warmest-year-on-record-by-an-enormous-margin\/.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>You can read the original NOAA report at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncdc.noaa.gov\/sotc\/global\/201510\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.ncdc.noaa.gov\/sotc\/global\/201510<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/climate\/files\/2015\/11\/oct-15-global-temp-dep.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-5217\" src=\"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/climate\/files\/2015\/11\/oct-15-global-temp-dep-300x232.gif\" alt=\"oct 15 global temp dep\" width=\"300\" height=\"232\" srcset=\"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/climate\/files\/2015\/11\/oct-15-global-temp-dep-300x232.gif 300w, https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/climate\/files\/2015\/11\/oct-15-global-temp-dep-179x138.gif 179w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>\u00a0 <\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/climate\/files\/2015\/11\/horserace-201510.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-5218\" src=\"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/climate\/files\/2015\/11\/horserace-201510-300x167.png\" alt=\"horserace-201510\" width=\"363\" height=\"202\" srcset=\"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/climate\/files\/2015\/11\/horserace-201510-300x167.png 300w, https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/climate\/files\/2015\/11\/horserace-201510-248x138.png 248w, https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/climate\/files\/2015\/11\/horserace-201510.png 918w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 363px) 100vw, 363px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After yesterday&#8217;s announcement that the Japan Meteorological Agency had determined that according to their data that October was the warmest on record, it should come as no surprise that NOAA has also measured the highest temperature since their records started in 1880 for both October and for the year to date, breaking the previous records [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":217,"featured_media":5217,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5,9,22],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5216","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-climate-and-ag-in-the-news","category-climate-summaries","category-el-nino-and-la-nina"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/climate\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5216","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/climate\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/climate\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/climate\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/217"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/climate\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5216"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/climate\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5216\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5220,"href":"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/climate\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5216\/revisions\/5220"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/climate\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5217"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/climate\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5216"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/climate\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5216"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/climate\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5216"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
