Lots of things need doing tho. First, lots of the data was not accessible, at least to me. Second, data from 1999 to 2003 are missing in lots of other cases. Third, no data after 2003 is available. Fourth, lots of science data crunching & statistics is needed of this individual data. Fifth, your opinion of the data is that there is no upward increase in temperatures. My opinion is there MAY be a slight upward turn. Without data crunching, we can't know the outcome. & we have to have the last few years(or even the last 8 years of data in numerous cases). </p> <p>I do give you an A for effort in trying to eliminate the effects of heat islands. </p> Thanks for the data.

I do give you an A for effort in trying to eliminate the effects of heat islands.

I'd love to see what happens when it gets run through a five or ten year rolling average i.e an α filter.</p> Do you have the raw data set?

The pattern looks like is changed characters in the middle 1990’s (with respect to the 1980’s).

But we are talking one or two solar cycles (depending on how you count them–see discussions at Mr. Watt’s (Watts’?) place.) and that is not nearly enough to be talking about patterns at all.
