moyhu: December GISS Temp down by 0.18°C

In my post on TempLS for December, I noted that it fell by 0.17°C from November, almost exactly cancelling the previous month's rise. GISS followed almost exactly the same sequence, down from 0.78°C to 0.6°C, having been 0.61°C in October.

And again, Russia and Siberia were very warm; N America was cold. Here is the GISS map for Dec 2013:
