Continuing in my series on the progress of my bet (with no one in particular) that this would be the warmest year on record, I am “pleased” to announce that April followed March for setting a monthly record in NASA’s dataset. I have referred to the bet as “taking candy from a baby” once it became obvious there was going to be a moderate El Nino, but the Icelandic volcano will make it more exciting.
In my bet I did have the condition that it could be nullified if a major volcano erupted, but I’m still winning so I won’t take that out yet.
