According to the National Climatic Data Center, the year 2010 was tied with 2005 for the warmest year on record with a land-sea average temperature 1.73F above the 20th century average. (See article here.)
I'm a little confused... I found this chart on the left from NCDC, and 2010 is ranked 94th out of 116 years of record (or, the 23rd warmest year on record). So according to their own data, it should not be tied with 2005 as the warmest year on record... Unless I'm missing something here. Does anyone have an explanation for this?
