Meanwhile, Outside

Yes, there's great distress across the globe. War, disease, corruption and so on.

But this story hasn't changed much.

From the scientists at NOAA:

The March 2022 global surface temperature departure was the fifth highest for March in the 143-year record at 0.95°C (1.71°F) above the 20th century average. This was also the highest monthly temperature departure since November 2020. The seven warmest Marches have occurred since 2015, while the 10 warmest Marches have occurred since 2002. March 2022 also marked the 46th consecutive March and the 447th consecutive month with temperatures, at least nominally, above the 20th century average.

Not a hoax.

Not a joke, not a lie, not exaggerating.

It's real.

It's still getting hotter out there.
