Say that fast three times.
From Dr. Roy Spencer at the University of Alabama - Huntsville, August 2:
UAH v6.1 Global Temperature Update for July, 2025: +0.36 deg. C
The Version 6.1 global average lower tropospheric temperature (LT) anomaly for July, 2025 was +0.36 deg. C departure from the 1991-2020 mean, down from the June, 2025 anomaly of +0.48 deg. C.
....MUCH MORE
The prop bet from May 2, 2024 was:
Here's a prop bet for you. By May 15, 2026 we will see the satellite-
The two keepers of the satellite record are Remote Sensing Systems in Santa Rosa CA and the University of Alabama-Huntsville....measured-inferred global lower atmospheric temperature anomaly decline by at least 1/2 degree C.*****...Again the baseline for the prop bet: the above "Latest Global Temp. Anomaly (March '24: +0.95°C)"....
Which was immediately (May 5, 2024) followed by:
UAH Global Temperature Update: April Sees New High Temperature Anomaly For The Satellite EraGreat, just effin' great. I had to go shooting my mouth off with a prop bet on May 2, couldn't wait for the new number to be released, no sirree, had to be posted when the memory to post it was triggered
If interested here is the saga of the prop bet (some day I'll explain the rationale behind it) including the low point, psychologically, on April 14, 2025:
Eleven days late getting to this, in part due to pain aversion* induced by getting so close to our prop-bet target, only to have victory snatched away with just 1/100 of a degree C to go....
