RSS Anomaly released for the month of November has been released. This allows me to once again engage in my graphoholic tendencies…
Data
The RSS data can be located here.

Slopes and Charts
The overall RSS trend is 0.13109, which is the equivalent of 1.57 degrees warming per Century. We're one month short of a full 30 years, so starting next month we can start to evaluate the 30-year slope values.
The furthest back we can extend a non-warming line is to April 1997 (11 years, 8 months.) While the front end has not extended back since last month, it stayed the same while we added one month to the end.
