TempLS global temp down 0.20°C in February

TempLS dropped substantially in February, from 0.486°C to 0.287°C. This was a little larger than the drop in the satellite indices. Again the cold spots were N America and Central Asia; warm in NE Europe.

I have made some modifications to the current data page, including a user-scalable graph.

Here is the spherical harmonics plot of the temperature distribution:
