I'm also off tomorrow to Stockholm for 3 days and will be away all the following week in Reading and Exeter. Attached is the press release The Met Office and UEA put out on Dec 16, 2004. If you want to piece something together from this you're most welcome to. If you use any of the diagrams you'd better check with David Parker (david.parker@metoffice.gov.uk). The diagrams will get updated once Dec04 data are fully in, but it shouldn't change anything. The diagrams will be in the WMO Statement of the Climate for 2004 which generally comes out for WMO Day, which is in early May. You might like to wait for that publication/pdf to come out. If you go here [2]http://www.wmo.ch/index-en.html and click on WMO press release no 718 you get a lot more. I've not the energy Mike has to knock these things off in a few minutes ! Hope all is well with you ! Cheers Phil PS keith is still writing some bits for the draft of the paleo chapter. The deadline for submission of chapters was Jan 14!
